    Toronto Toronto | Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Not only is the stop to the south side of Eglinton painfully obvious but, but they plan on filling in the Wynford Drive over pass in favour of at-grade intersection, which in my opinion doesn't make any sense. There is an opportunity at this proposed stop to avoid vehicle traffic yet the TTC...

    Toronto Toronto | Spadina Subway Extension Emergency Exits | ?m | 1s | TTC | IBI Group

    Tunnelling is 98 % done! I would awesome there will be some sort of completion ceremony next week. I wonder if Rob Ford will be there?

    Toronto Toronto | TYSSE: York University Station | ?m | 1s | TTC | Foster + Partners

    how is this even possible when most of the tunnelling is already completed? Wouldn't the water from the station box flood the rest of the tunnels north and south of the site.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    We share the same dream. Unfortunately I don't think anyone on Council has enough common sense to make that motion. At what point should metrolinx intervene and suggest there original 2008 plan to make Eglinton and Scarborough a fully grade separated automated line as a alternative to this mess...

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I find it strange that were resorting back to the BD extension, which I'v been against from day one. This project will not add any additional km of rapid transit to Toronto. Its too bad political influences gets in the way of common sense in this city. The scarborough-eglinton crosstown should...

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    I notice sections of the 401 near the airport are still using the old trust light standard. Is the MOT eventually planning on replacing them with the high mass poles like the rest of the 400 series highway?

    Toronto Toronto | 50 Bloor Street West | 230.11m | 70s | Morguard Corporation | Pellow + Associates

    I couldn’t say it better myself. That’s because Toronto is a city of all talk. New Urbanism and transit-oriented-design, that’s all smoke and mirror in this city,. Just look at Liberty Village, meant to promote public transit and walking yet they build an underground parking garage beneath...

    Eglinton LRT- Skytrain Beams Vs. Median Right-of-Way

    I agree with you 100%, use skytrain or a technology similar to that and put it on Eglinton. Elevate it in Scarborough, underground through midtown, and elevated or trenched in the westend. Eglinton does not need a slow LRT.If my memory serves me correct wasn’t that Metrolinx's original plan...

    Eglinton LRT- Skytrain Beams Vs. Median Right-of-Way

    When I meant cheaper, I was referring to an elevated vs subway option. I'm very supportive of at grade light rail; however I'm just not convinced Eglinton is an appropriate place to display such a technology. If the line every reaches the airport in the west and Malvern in the northeast then the...

    Eglinton LRT- Skytrain Beams Vs. Median Right-of-Way

    What a mess the Eglinton LRT project has become. If you put it underground it doesn’t make sense because their using a technology thats meant for the surface, and if you put it on the surface your now compromising the speed of the line; because we all know the city's traffic department will not...

    The Toronot Star is so full of it..............Really is that the best picture you can get of Rob Ford.

    What neighbourhoods? Are you talking about the big box store that run along that 6 lane arterial road we call Eglinton

    Toronto Toronto | RBC WaterPark Place III | 140.2m | 30s | Oxford Properties | WZMH

    Has anyone ever heard the saying "what’s worth doing, is worth doing well". I'm basically implying that if they’re going to build an office building at least make it taller and more iconic. This building is more suitable for Scarborough or Mississauga city centre, not downtown Toronto. If...

    Toronto Toronto | The Pemberton | 215.79m | 68s | Pemberton | a—A

    Makes you wounder.......But I'll believe it when I see it. If there going to build a 100 storey building here I hope its mixed-use. First 40 floors office,20 floors for a hotel, and 40 floors for a condo and a observation deck. No ocean glass.:D

    TTC: Sheppard Subway Expansion (Speculative)

    Im sure if Eglinton was elevated, it would free up some funding from the Province. At the same time if Sheppard was also elevated the cost of the subway would be reduced. If both took place then I'm sure both lines could be built.

    Toronto Toronto | Murano | ?m | 45s | Lanterra | a—A

    :DI hope these recent events will shift the way developer’s construct condos in Toronto. No more ocean coloured glass boxes, with tacky balconies.

    Toronto Toronto | One Bloor East | 257.24m | 76s | Great Gulf | Hariri Pontarini

    No it isn’t. This project is overrated. The only reason why it’s getting so much attention is because of where its located, and to be quite honest I would expect something much more spectacular in that area. Yes the design is great, but not iconic. Aura seems more exciting to me............Just...
