    National Geographic: St. Lawrence Market the world's best

    I ate dog meat when I was in China and I don't see anything wrong with it. Too stringy for me but I have no moral issue with it. Meat is meat and if you have no problem with the inhumane way that chickens are raised and slaughtered then you probably shouldn't mind dogs raised for meat purposes...

    Toronto Toronto | Bathurst College Centre | ?m | 4s | RioCan | Turner Fleischer

    That is gross... I wish the city upheld some standards to prevent this from happening.

    Ontario Court of Appeal greenlights brothels

    The judges are some of their best customers so it was in their best interest to get this passed through.

    Why does Toronto always dominate the best cities list???

    I think it would make sense to compare larger cities together and then a separate study that compares the smaller cities. People that move to larger cities know that it costs more but deal with that to be closer to more things going on. The type of person that would prefer living in Burlington...

    Toronto Toronto | Casa II Condos | 184.09m | 56s | Cresford | a—A

    It looks amazing. I just hope it ends up complimenting CASA 1 when all is said and done instead of just seeming like too much of a good thing.

    Toronto Toronto | St Regis Toronto Hotel and Residences | 281.93m | 58s | JFC Capital | Zeidler

    Yuck. I forgot about that. As if they needed something to make this building look even worse.

    Toronto Toronto | Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    It's honestly really not important what building is considered the tallest residential building in NA. I am mostly concerned about how a building of this height ends up looking in the Toronto skyline. It would suck to have something so enormous turn out very poorly. *crosses fingers* (and toes)

    Toronto Toronto | YC Condos -- Yonge at College | 198.42m | 62s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    Wowzers. This one is not looking good. It might even make 1 Bloor look worse just by being around it.

    Toronto Toronto | Massey Tower Condos | 206.95m | 60s | MOD Developments | Hariri Pontarini

    Oh, neat! I really like it! I even kinda like how the podium is set back to leave the heritage building on its own.

    Toronto Toronto | The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    Apple stores look like some weird government propaganda home base. Which is kind of fitting for the mindless consumer drones that shop there for their yearly minor upgrades that they so desperately need. It probably means they will be demolishing the existing building too. It wouldn't really be...

    Vaughan Toronto | Leviathan at Canada's Wonderland | 93.26m | ?s | Cedar Fair

    I think Wonderland used to own a lot more land but when Paramount owned the park, they sold a lot of it off. What a crap move.

    Toronto Toronto | Bloor Street Revitalization | ?m | ?s | Bloor-Yorkville BIA | architectsAlliance

    They could also consider a proposal to only allow people above a certain income level to walk on this stretch of Bloor.

    Toronto, Capital of North America?

    Personally, I've been shocked at how fast LA has replaced NYC as the US city that everyone talks about worldwide. I really hate LA so I think it's a shame but that is beside the point. New York's place as the top US city in the average person's mind is gone. Maybe Calgary will do that to...

    CityPlace Masterplan

    I think the problem isn't that another developer could have done better with such a large piece of land. It's more like it's never a good idea to hand over such a large piece of land to just one developer no matter who it is. It creates something too monotonous. I personally like most of the...

    Toronto Toronto | Massey Tower Condos | 206.95m | 60s | MOD Developments | Hariri Pontarini

    It would take the omission of balconies on a residential building to make a stunner and that is really what Toronto isn't ready for. However, even that wasn't enough for the Trump building.

    Toronto building boom

    I know that the CN Tower isn't technically a building but it's extremely tall, very iconic and anchors the Toronto skyline just like the Empire State Building does in Midtown Manhattan.

    Hi-Res 360° Aerial Panorama

    A lot of those "low lying areas of nothing" are Toronto's most vibrant and interesting neighborhoods. They contain the best shops, restaurants and other things that make the central business district seem boring in comparison (at street level). I dont really agree that it seems ugly to not have...

    Toronto Toronto | Southcore Financial Centre & Delta Toronto | 159.71m | 45s | GWL | KPMB

    Is it a foreign company setting up some offices here?

    Toronto 2024 Olympic Bid (Dead)

    How do you explain all the Asian-Canadians celebrating Canada's hockey victory in the streets? I was out there and there were tons of them.

    Toronto Toronto | TeaHouse 501 Yonge Condominiums | 170.98m | 52s | Lanterra | a—A

    The twin condo towers on a huge crappy podium thing is getting very played out in this city. It's hard to stay positive about the new developments these days.
