    Toronto Toronto | Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    ' The flooded tunnel was the original connection from Union Station to the Subway when the Bay Concourse did not exist. When the GO Concourse opened up, this passage was closed. The Moat was then opened up and we got the access points we all know today. My understanding is that this was a...

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    Would the roadway design not be part of the HTA?

    Toronto non-mall retail (Odds & Ends)

    Taken today. Some things never change... Fun anecdote for y'all. When I was at work looking to buy a camera in 2015 I typed the address for what I thought was the Blacks website. I had a highly reflective window and you could see everything that was on my screen. I learned the hard way that...

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    I don't get it?

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    I wonder if this has anything to do with the expanded selection at the 10 Dundas Store. The Eaton Centre location doesn't have housewares or kids sections

    The way it was being described by the operators was more of an oh s*** moment. That said I concur. I'm onboard a 504 right now sitting at Dundas Street. It's a mess still.

    *UPDATE 2* Operators are announcing to passengers that this will not clear up expeditiously.

    *UPDATE* It's a fluid leak at Castle Frank Station. It's at track level. Sound familiar?

    I like this idea. Some stations as noted like Kennedy cannot practically have their crash gates closed though I would like to see more enforcement there. Currently at Kennedy, anyone can walk in off the street for free if they claim they are coming from Platform B. There really needs to be...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    As I said before, the NDP Care less about Jagmeet than they do their own survival. If Jagmeet looks like he is putting his own interests ahead of the nation, their support will tank.

    Y'all were saying? I reckon I was on to something.

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    There is blood in the water. The opposition parties know that Trudeau is weakened and the Liberals are losing support. By forcing an election now, the parties prevent the Liberals from finding a permanent leader before the next election. They may even force Trudeau to run as leader of the...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    It seems that the liberals lost their Montreal seat to the BQ. My guess is that either the opposition capitalizes on this by forcing an election or Trudeau resigns. https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/lasalle-emard-verdun-justin-trudeau-liberals-bloc-quebecois

    To update from yesterday... The new access is between Bays 5 and 6 (16 McCowan and 17 Birchmount). They have a section of the platform at the top of the escalator adjacent to the tower cordoned off. All things considered, I think they are about to expand construction causing a shutdown of the...

    There is a corridor from the collector booth to Warden Avenue. It runs in behind the dry cleaner and washrooms.

    There is precedent for this. In 1967 when the station was constructed, there was direct access to the Warden Avenue exit from the bus bays. See below from the City of Toronto Archives via Nathan Ngs Station Fixation site.

    Just came across this on Reddit. If I was a betting man, the bus bays at Warden will soon be removed from the fare paid area. https://www.reddit.com/r/TTC/s/PZ7nOEwxuJ

    There's a cost vs benefit ratio for this stuff. It's likely that investing further money into this wasn't going to see a great enough benefit.

    Ok.. you had me up until this point. This isn't a white privilege thing. What this is, is the reality that 99% of plans have Data even minimally. Don't turn this into a race issue. Who s*** in your cornflakes? The next train estimates are only an estimate. By the time you connect, find...
