Very clever! You posted a picture of a dinosaur. God forbid a restaurant/bar guy try and open a neighbourhood restaurant/bar instead of crowdfunding another cruising app.

I guess the 'm' is silent in Schmitt?

This is the best idea to me, too. Imagine how this building will stand out in the nauseating sea of grey plastic crap that Yonge will be ten years!

Just walked by this Boîte de Merde and experienced the full effect of the odd little reno to the north of 365...Sorry, what was the point of this again? The 'renovated' former Bulldog Building/sandwich shop is somehow worse than the sad, neglected Victorian storefront that was there before. I...

Also disheartening: the overabundance of 'corporate graffiti vandalists'...the brain-dead mooks hired by the city to locate and mark utility ROWs. Case in point (although it happens everywhere in this town): They had just finished the lovely hardscape of Berczy Park a few months back and a few...

And (of course) original-looking windows on the apartment house in the middle! Probably time for me to get out of this filthy little town before all of the little remaining charm is beaten out of it.

Of course it has! I'm sure the inevitable crap that replaces these lovely buildings will be as well-crafted as Mister Mattamy's 'hair' plugs

Exactly! I too prefer what’s there now. This thing's just adding another piece to the set of forgettable at best/aggressive banality of Toronto condo architecture. (Gawd, this town gets harder to look at every day.) I really wish Matt & Amy (and Peter) would f*ck off back to the sweaty taint of...

Yay! Let's celebrate the loss of yet another cool building. Last one out get the lights!

I love the DIY feel of the masonry...very Craigslist (c 2016) "Labor Gigs." God is in the detailz?

Well, this is pretty depressing...probably time to list the house and pack it in. I was under the impression that the Bar Volo building was to be spared beigeification. Looking forward to the new bastions of torontoculture (BMO/drycleaner/RBC) that will take Volo's place!

I believe Downtown VW is moving into the former Volvo spot on Eastern (soonish).
