They could be doing lots of this sort of thing, I would buy one and put it beside my London Tube map poster. Then I would cry comparing the two

Detroit has lots of surface lots downtown to park, perhaps that should be the city for you. ;)

Wow! You made that soul sucking monolith look rather good. Koodos to you!

I hope youre being sarcastic?

I agree with you that communication can be better. Very legitimate criticisim. I didnt know about it untill I got to Eglinton. If I knew about it at Sheppard, I would of taken the bus to Downsview. However, that is no excuse for having an altrinate plan. We must be aware of our...

I disagree. I understand a tourist being confused, but a local torontonian should have a genneral knowledge of their city, which includes a general knowledge of their transit system. Everyone should learn alternate routes to and from work beforehand for "shit happens" situations like...

I had to walk 30 minutes between Eglinton and Bloor, which was ok because it was a nice day, I have no evening plans, and I like to walk. Yes, the comments section of the star and the globe are blaming this and everything from the second world war to the weather on the TTC. I take the...

Out of the Major cities I have visited, Detroit without a question. Which is a shame, because in the 1940's, it probably was one of the best places to be in NA. Detroit must act as a warning to the rest of the world, invest in and diversify in cities, not sprawl!

I know. I just have to clear up a whole bunch of junk on my computer to find space for it. :)

Well, perhaps the death of the village is not neccesarily a bad thing. Like some previous posters of stated, places like the beaver and the old nick are around. Is it better that we have gay bars sprinkiled accross the city, rather than consentrated? I dont know. However, as I see the death...

I heard this morning that The Red Lion on Jarvis has closed. Does someone know more about this?

Ok, me thinks its time to find a new village. Any sugestions? East end perhaps?

The 2% deduction in the GST would of been a perfect oppourtunity for the feds to give that to the province, in order to give to the cities. Does anyone think that an extra 4 cents on coffee is going to make or break you? I do agree that all municipalities would have to apply it though...

I find it difficult to believe that Woody's could go, it makes a shitload off of beer sales. However, the way things are going, nothing would surprise me. If it does go, then thats it! Village over.

The "CNN Factor", is a big problem. And that term was coined before the creation of Fox news, and the thirty-seven 24 hour channels in Toronto alone(or so it seems). They have to cover something, and crime is allways a juicy story. How do we counter this attitude? I have no idea. Every...

I didnt mention anything about seniors, but yes I do see the demographic challenges of a monoculture. I realize that people have the right to live wherever they want, and my comment was a little tounge and cheek. But I really do love living downtown with people who share the same outlook on...

I agree. I grew up in the burbs, and the space outside in my view was just desolate and bleak! Even the local parks were nothing more than glorified brown field, which was flooded most of the time. All I wanted was a little space to call my own, which i had in my small bedroom. I would of...

Dont think there is anything you can do about it, especially in the core. I dont mind this at all though, I like being surrounded by young urban profesionals and not irritating kids! :)

We could also expand both Jarvis and University to 20 lanes in each direction! And how about expanding the 401, Gardiner and DVP to 100,000 lanes each! Traffic would fly around this town then! I know this is sarcastic, but I often feel this would be the only thing to satisfy the...

You have a point about post-war development, and how a good chunk of outter Toronto resembles Mississauga. I certainly bash that urban build form too. However, at least their is transportation in the outter Toronto burbs, and there is some connection to the urban core. Mississauga does no...
