    Toronto/Montreal comparisons (ain't pretty...)

    Actually I just realized...why didn't 'I' just email you personally myself...(sorry mods and other UT'ers for straying off topic)...

    Toronto/Montreal comparisons (ain't pretty...)

    Hi, Thanos...I'm in the process of reading through 'all' this thread (taking a break and leapfrogging a bit)...some good points as usual...just wondering what you meant by Filipinos...as I know this is an older post I'm asking about you can email personally if you want via UT...I'm curious b/c I...

    Downtown vs. Suburbs: Yes, It's An Ethnic Thing

    I'm not familiar with that term (taking the mickey?)? As for being condescending by saying I'm going to ignore someone who jumped to conclusions about a thoughtful analysis about an article and then afterwards failing even to explain WHY he accused me of being condescending...screw that...if...

    Toronto Toronto | L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    Interesting Thanks, MidTowner...I looked it up and now I know something I didn't before...and now I want to get one too! ;) I imagine now that they've passed the Sony roofline and beyond the joined front entrance columns this tower should really pickup speed...anyone have an idea of the...

    Downtown vs. Suburbs: Yes, It's An Ethnic Thing

    Okay, since you've got no substance in your posts/rebuttals, I'll just conclude that you're probably just not too bright and ignore you...

    Downtown vs. Suburbs: Yes, It's An Ethnic Thing

    But there are many other neighborhoods IN the city that are still affordable...I know b/c I'm a frequent mls visitor and I set my max 'house' price at 550 and there's always lots of houses that are pretty nice (to me at least) in that price range and many even lower. As for not being able to...

    Downtown vs. Suburbs: Yes, It's An Ethnic Thing

    Woops...I mistakenly assumed this person was a suburbanite without having fully read the 'entire' article (posted by Anth, namely, "Why White Scenesters Hate the ‘Burbs"). I don't entirely disagree with 'some' of his/her? points, but my experience with many immigrants I've known - in both...

    Downtown vs. Suburbs: Yes, It's An Ethnic Thing

    Pho? I love how suburbanites often like to symbolize SOB's and/or urbanites with various foods/drinks...mostly of course it's latte...here's one I haven't heard... "...as downtown scenesters badmouth the suburbs over bowls of Pho..."

    1%!? Do you mean the 'rental' market? Not that I don't believe you, but it just seems 'really' low...where did you get that stat? I sure hope it's true too.

    Cool! VERY cool, Udo...I guess you've somehow got access to a great vantage point AND a big hard drive for the video clips... ;)

    Toronto in the World

    We do think tall buildings are cool, but not ugly detached disconnected tall buildings...I want my tall buildings to look (and feel) 'cool' from a distance AND as I'm walking by them...and that means they must engage me in both contexts too...i.e. look cool in the skyline and look cool as a...

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

    Is that what he meant? tkip...I dont disagree with your sentiments regarding attitudes towards the poor...I'm just not sure that the poster SUPPORTS his own speculation...at least I didn't read anywhere in the post where he said he did...he just said that 'maybe' that's why they did it...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I notice a common thread among the right...namely that they're very good at just saying stuff (i.e. bullshit) without any of that stuff having any basis in truth... ...like the so-called truth that thousands want him to continue doing what he's doing...really? Isn't it interesting how he...

    Toronto Thanks, Mongo...no matter where we are on the list, it's pretty obvious that relatively speaking were doing quite good, and I agree with another poster (forget who now) in that I think the amount of development activity - especially downtown - (especially residential and then gradually...

    OH MAN! This guy is a real freakin lunatic! I really hope that councillors pull together and stop these idiots before it's too late.

    Nice work, Mongo...I wonder what the list would look like as we increase the sizes...i.e. having a similar list for 500+ feet, then 600+, etc...? I'm also surprised with the activity in Manila...I knew there's activity there, but I had no idea this much...
