    Vaughan Toronto | 2600 Steeles West | 166.5m | 53s | Zancor Homes | Rafael + Bigauskas

    This has been in PLANit for a few months and the public meeting docs were just posted:

    Toronto Toronto | Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    You can actually go to page 1354 of this thread to see what some people think of elevated transit. Now extrapolate this to the whole population and you'll understand why elevated is rarely used. There's also accessibility issues where now you need 2 elevators at each stop. Anything above or...

    Vaughan Toronto | ArtWalk District Phase 1 | 131m | 38s | SmartCentres | Hariri Pontarini

    There's a new OP amendment in for what seems like the rest of the lands at this address: Artwalk GFA in the SE corner is 52,146m2 for perspective.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Do you know what happened that changed this? It was originally planned: https://4mycommunity.ca/2018/10/improving-go-transit-stations-with-additional-parking/

    Vaughan Toronto | RioCan Colossus Centre Redevelopment | ?m | 55s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    The Langstaff EA was recently finalized but theres no funding plan and its still 10+ years away. This is obviously a key route as you've noted so it's a shame its not being considered immediately. One of the provincial party's should pick it up as a key investment in the Thornhill/Vaughan...

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    To be fair to Burlington and Oakville, the project was originally supposed to commence construction in 2019 and it seems it was only delayed because MX/IO were sorting out the rail scopes (Exhibition and OL, Electrification) across the entire project. They could have packaged out the two grade...

    Great Platform Height Debate: Subway-Style Level Boarding for GO Trains

    Saw you're at Rutherford in the video - correct me if I'm wrong but the heated enclosures on the platforms are also built for the eventual height increase. The window directly above the door seems like its cut in 2 pieces so that when they raise the height, the bottom section of glass is removed...

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    What area are you using in your calculation? Theres no corridor works here aside from the direct works at Long Branch and those above the grade sep. This is pretty much the same project as Rutherford, but with no 1,200 spot parking garage. Increased costs are coming from inflation yes, but also...

    Vaughan Toronto | Festival Condominiums | 189.05m | 59s | Menkes | Arcadis

    What are all those concrete piles around the north crane base? Are those completed so excavation can proceed in the small area where the crane base is going in?

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    WB lanes at Rutherford Go grade sep are open! New station building is also open but still a good amount of work to be done around the existing station building. There is currently a detour through the parking garage to get to the platforms which are nearly complete. At Maple GO - is this...

    Vaughan Toronto | Transit City Condos: TC4 & TC5 | 174.34m | 50s | SmartCentres | Diamond Schmitt

    TC4 and TC5 both racing upwards. Mobilio has also come up in the background.

    GO Transit Electrification | Metrolinx

    Interesting note - only 2 teams out of 4 submitted: EnTransit Applicant Lead: SNC-Lavalin Capital, Siemens Project Ventures, Keolis Construction Team: SNC-Lavalin, Siemens Design Team: SNC-Lavalin, Siemens, Balfour Beatty Rail Operations & Maintenance Team: Keolis SNCF, SNC-Lavalin, Siemens...

    Fun fact: the PA has a built in clause to protect Project Co if the boat sinks:

    Toronto Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    This is really good to hear. I live about 200m from a platform and removing the bell ringing would be amazing. I am constantly being awoken by it in the morning as the high pitch noise seems to go right through my condo walls.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    Works are ongoing at Maple GO for an extension of Eagle Rock Way and the new elevator building I cant seem to find much info on this project other than this site plan from the adjacent condo plans:

    Toronto Toronto | Social at Church + Dundas | 164.89m | 52s | Pemberton | RAW Design

    I checked the City application docs and found this. The pattern on the east side does not start until Level 13. You can see it's flat initially from Levels 7-12.

    Toronto Toronto | The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    That's the thickest wall you'll ever walk through to get to a pantry.

    Toronto Toronto | Pinnacle One Yonge | 345.5m | 105s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    A bit different than the usual pics here. This one filled a nice little gap in my view of the skyline:
