Any news on the archaeology?. Allegedly, there’s a good chance of artifacts dating from the American occupation of York from the War of 1812, and their burning down of the wooden parliament building on this site.

First signs of glazing.

Going, going,…

And a community is born..

They‘re removing old utilities under Cherry Street.

However, it seems the Beer Store will be a ground floor tenant. Cycled by the nearly completed building yesterday. Overall, I like the building’s look and scale. I hope we see similar ones on the Danforth, which is in need of modest intensification, especially above a subway line.

Yesterday, I noticed a drilling rig on the site of the former car wash at 822 Church Street.

Yes, this design is curiously out of date with current practice to put the bike lanes beside the curb. Hopefully, they’ll change it.

It’s getting worse everywhere. Recently, I cycled northbound on Yonge Street around 5 pm and counted 6 vehicles, three on each side, between Wellesley and Charles, parked with 4-way flashers on, despite no parking signs at that time of day. Six!

My problem is less noise related than inconsiderate neighbours. Two who live in nearby units slam their doors, even after a friendly request to close them more quietly. Imagine reading or working quietly in your unit, and hearing doors slam unexpectedly, Water torture! It’s especially...

Egregious waste of money. Scarborough needs an LRT network, not a subway.

Raising the road would solve one of the biggest hazards facing cyclists. The edge of the road is often deteriorated. Check out Dufferin in the vicinity of the Yorkdale Mall. It’s treacherous.

The proposed addition clashes with the old. Tear it down and build from scratch.

I like it. 15 stories makes sense along this section of Church Street. I've hated that underused parking lot for ages! The proposal is an attractive building which fits into the surroundings. Now the question is when they'll do something with the parking lot on the southwest corner of Bloor and...

Given how computerized this building is, I eclectic to read one day an article about the havoc wrecked by a computer virus.
