    Toronto Toronto | Cloverdale Mall Redevelopment | 156.9m | 48s | QuadReal | Giannone Petricone

    ^^^Exactly, 100% agreed. There is so much condo density now in south/central Etobicoke that the surrounding infrastructure to support that density is not keeping up. This translates into short term problems but also long term problems that are hard and expensive to fix. I know Mark Grimes is...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    It would be nice if they could carve out a pedestrian tunnel, under highway 400, separate from the Finch avenue lanes during this rehabilitation/bridge replacement project.

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Quoted from the Mosaic Transit Group website: The Process "This study is subject to Ontario’s Environmental Assessment Act and will be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the Class EA for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000) (MTO’s Class EA) as a Group ‘B’ project. MTO’s...

    Toronto Toronto | Sherway Gardens Expansion | ?m | 2s | Cadillac Fairview | DIALOG

    I really like the new American menswear shop UNTUCKit store. I hope it does well and fends off the "different Canadian market trend" that is taking down many businesses trying to start up operations north of the border. In fact I'm very amused that CFSherway Gardens was chosen as their first...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    To date, $400 million has been spent planning and constructing the Finch LRT. For the reasons stated in this short article I believe we are past the cancellation window of this transit project. https://www.downsviewadvocate.ca/2018/10/letter-editor-whats-real/

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    With today's announcement by Vic Fedeli, Ontario's Minister of Finance, our 15 billion deficit is really concerning to me how this will impact current LRT projects under construction and those that are planned. I sure hope at least the Finch West LRT survives cancellation consideration. The...

    ^^^What's that structure at the top of the south side seating? Is it permanent or temporary?

    Toronto Toronto | Kipling Station Transit Hub | ?m | 2s | Metrolinx | SAI

    With those offices ( unused south Kipling Station platform) being added on the RT/LRT platform does this construction effectively eliminate any chance of future use construction such as a Gondola service to Sherway Gardens or future LRT technology not invented yet?

    Just curious, why was those clickers not working properly? It seems strange that they failed at such an important meeting.

    My understanding is that the actual/main construction starts in September.

    Roads: Six Points Interchange Reconfiguration (City of Toronto, UC)

    What is the funding allocated for the six points interchange reconfiguration construction alone? Not including the future Etobicoke Centre etc. Thanks

    Being that today was the financial close of the Finch West LRT and completed before the writ drop does this mean at least the Finch West LRT project is safe from cancellation after the election?

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Please educate me but from a provincial funding point of view wouldn't the Hamilton and Hurontario LRT's be sacrificed first before the Finch West LRT? IMO opinion cancelling the Finch West LRT would be really harmful and set back transit in Toronto for decades. This doesn't include the sunk...

    Toronto Toronto | Kipling Station Transit Hub | ?m | 2s | Metrolinx | SAI

    I talked to a worker who installed the lights at the intersection above. He said they are temporary traffic lights for about 3 months. However, he said there is a possibility that they could stay longer depending how things evolve.

    Toronto Toronto | Station Place | 134.72m | 40s | First Capital | Diamond Schmitt

    At the last councillors meeting here at 35 Viking Lane we were told that it will be 2 to 3 years of construction. Closer to 3 years.

    Toronto Toronto | BMO Field Renovations | ?m | ?s | MLSE | Gensler

    ^^^ I agree. If only it worked out for the York University site, a stadium there now with the subway extension, we would have been in better position. However, some take to liking having a stadium with each section different than the one beside it. I just hope that a proper stadium could be...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    Hello everyone, Does anyone know if there will be a washroom/restroom added to Finch West LRT station since it will be the terminus station at the end of the LRT line. If not I think it would be a shame and missed opportunity. The general population is getting older including myself. There are...

    Finch West Line 6 LRT

    ^^^Great news. However, can someone please explain this quote that is part of the announcement? "IO and Metrolinx expect to reach financial close and award the contract in spring 2018, with design and construction to begin shortly thereafter." Why not have this announced at the same time as...
