that building looks like it'd take a lot to fix up and i don't think loblaws has the money right now. for example, "In the meantime, plans to open new stores have been put on hold until 2009, Weston said in response to a question." http://www.thestar.com/Business/article/301624

not sure what this means. :confused: http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/January2008/30/c5553.html

looks a bit like franklin children's garden?

i could easily be wrong, but i seem to recall someone (adam vaughan?) saying that this passage will only be for pedestrians and bikes.

their website has been updated... http://www.cityplace.ca/parade/

it's not great, but there's a little-used bike path from york to spadina on the south side of lakeshore (after spadina it turns into a sidewalk, which is also little-used).

thanks for this. :) and the now magazine suggestion is good too.

the lady in question is a musician. my friend's wife. it's not much of a concern to me, except that i was curious. thank you for your observations, anarchosocialist. i've heard similar comments, that is, that toronto's art scene is vibrant, first rate, though somewhat less conspicuous...

thanks for the replies. :) anything specific i could ask her to check out? maybe it'd help her to appreciate toronto more.

i don't really like the versus debates, but i've a question that i really don't know much about. i was talking to someone yesterday who has lived in both cities. she said that the art scene was better in montreal than toronto. is this true? if so, how? her comments were likely specifically...

very sad. http://www.680news.com/news/local/article.jsp?content=20070711_092125_780

tacky (but good tacky). old (but in a timeless sort of way). fun (not like ha-ha fun, more like hanging out fun). i don't play many, but i like the games. i think i just like walking around. i know it's a bit expensive to just "walk around", but there's a nice atmosphere. oh...

i passed by the park this morning. it's fenced off. it doesn't look close to being finished. there was a picture of the park in today's post... south linear park makes its "debut"

was wondering if anyone knew what this was about... South Linear Park Opening Date: Monday July 9 Time: 2:30 pm Location: at the northeast corner of Spadina Avenue and Lake Shore Boulevard Please join Councillor Vaughan, Councillor McConnell, the Concord Adex team and City of Toronto...

i think it's open today. i saw some pictures on www.flickr.com. it looks really good.

very true. thank you. i wonder how the rom will do. opinions seem very divided.

will the rom be in next year's awards or does the building have to be built from scratch?

i agree, but there is a bigger issue here. what is the best course of action for toronto and how do we decide it? a particular resident's subjective assessment of what is "loud" is one factor amongst many others.

i understand. what i'm saying is that because of the more diverse mixture of people in the neighbourhood by the island airport, the overall average is being skewed by a few very rich people (for example, the guys that own the $1,000,000-plus penthouses, 401 queens quay, in king's landing...
