Not a project with much interest it seems, but it's at, and starting to rise above grade. Was driving past, so no pictures, but see the web cam above for reference.

I think you're being too generous. Not that there isn't a fair argument to be made in that regards about Bathurst, just that he wasn't making it. It's the rest of his post I take issue with, as his comment about retail came across as tacked-on to his broader point where he, in essence, is...

Urbanity =/= height. You also do your argument no service by disingenuously choosing a google streetview shot where one side of the street is a park. Nevermind that the Bathurst streetscape varies quite considerably along its route through Toronto, with quite a bit of density being found along...

Ironic that of all his posts you could've made that response to, you chose the one in which he isn't actually providing an opinion, but rather is quoting other posters... And, whether you like Aura or not is not the issue here. Rather, he was pointing out how one can, very justifiably, render...

Noticed this when I was in the area the other day (no pictures, alas): The site as it appears on Google Streetview. http://www.buzzbuzzhome.com/the-neighbourhoods-of-the-beach http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2012/te/bgrd/backgroundfile-46834.pdf From the 2012 report: As of a...

As Northern Light said, it's mostly TCHC, though there are a couple of private rental buildings mixed in there as well, the highrises along the east side of Sherbourne, between Shuter and Dundas, for instance.

Oh I don't know, only Banh Mi Boys, Bar Volo, the Red Bench, and Chalau, to name a few, with the first two being especially highly regarded by with Banh Mi Boys being consistently ranked by the Chowhound Toronto folks as one of the best new restaurants of 2013, and Bar Volo being perennially...

Target is set to take over the old Zellers space, timing of the condo construction is still not certain, from InsideToronto.

It's a tradeoff, if the city feels that the positive value from the section 37 benefits outweighs the negatives of a height increase, that, in your example, could increase shadowing, they'll take it, or they'll negotiate to such an amount until they feel such value has been achieved. Wind...

I believe they're referring to this site, Loblaws moving in as the anchor tenant: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/toronto/loblaws-moving-into-kensington-market/article16535808/

Sorry, no pics, but drove by today and this is under construction. Couldn't quite tell for sure, but looks like the parking garage is approaching grade (either that, or excavation is just below grade, but I could've sworn I saw concrete and rebar).

You may be then be shocked to learn that most people who have never produced or directed a film also criticize movies all the time, as laymen and professionally.

Looks like it's going to be retirement residences: http://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2013/ny/bgrd/backgroundfile-62119.pdf Current site: http://goo.gl/maps/dIY13

No pictures, but drove by last night and the building is now completely covered in scaffolding. Things are [hopefully] finally happening!

And just because what we're ending up with is a cheapened design, that hardly means that the underlying idea of having a hotel at the CNE was a bad or silly one, and if that is indeed the point you're trying to make, well, it's a specious argument.
