Very well said. I agree wholeheartedly.

Thanks for the info DSC ... Much appreciated. This one has really been dragging. Its been over a year now since they closed off the park.

Does anyone know the timeline on reopening Ireland Park and the access to it on the east side of the silos? Will this remain closed indefinitely? Do we know if the Famine survivor statues were removed to protect them? Other than the above application for a parking lot, we haven't heard much on...

Molson Park in Barrie never seemed to have trouble getting the kids to come to Lolapalooza or Edgefest

I see what you did there

"the generic-faux-plus-extruded-Modernist-core" Can you please explain what that means to those of us who do not speak architectural-hyphenated-gibberish-speak?

I was surprised that they put cladding on those pillars. The use of raw concrete seems to be a big part of this building's minimalist theme. Every time I am there, I look up at the ceilings and try to like them, but its just too unfinished looking for my tastes. It also makes the undersides of...

^^^^ According to google maps, those coordinates are for ICE

How is it too tall?

So it is .. Thanks!

Good idea Vegeta... "Favourite under-construction project" poll ... you should get on that. I will be voting L-tower for the record. Back to Theatre Park: Does anyone have pics of the site all closed off and ready for work to begin? It should be really interesting watching construction on this...

They're not, and its obvious that's not what Steveve meant. But then again, I didn't realize that Bay Street is a "residential neighbourhood".

Curious: What was your shutter speed on these pictures? Just wondering how fast you need to snap in order to freeze helicopter rotors. Looks like the second one was a bit faster. Must be at least 1/500, no?

What has been proposed at 45 Bay? And more importantly, how did I miss it!!??

Totes. Man, let's just Demo that old city hall too. That shack is a supertall waiting too happen. Talk about a totally killer view terminus up Bay st.

Are both ICE buildings going to head skyward at the same time and at presumably the same rate?

Yeah, totally. We should reward the persons responsible for ridding the city of this historical nuisance. Like, c'mon, it was around for over 120 years. Isn't that long enough? I mean, really, who wants all of those old buildings around. They just get in the way of progress and building new...

Androiduk: Stunning photo. Just goes to help prove my case... This is going the best tower of the current, recent, and near future booms. Its #1 for me.

No, really, SPEAK FOR YOURSELF. I also want scientific rationale for decisions made, but I appreciate the passion, effort AND knowledge exhibited by Torontoonmy Mind's post and I do not wish to have you speaking on my behalf, especially when you disparage him/her as an "activist" (why is that...
