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

    This doc may be outdated but the layout of the north block is relatively unchanged. There are some pages showing first and second floor. They’re pretty low quality images so I’m not going to pull them put of the PDF, but check out what’s around pages 40-45.

    Toronto Toronto | Concord Canada House | 231.97m | 74s | Concord Adex | Arcadis

    Been tuned into this thread for a while hoping to see progress pictures of the outdoor amenity space. Low and behold I made a friend last night who has a perfect balcony view.

    Toronto Toronto | Time and Space Condos | 101.8m | 29s | Pemberton | Wallman Architects

    That the city even approved this massing is frustrating. Can we get an additional year end poll for biggest flops of 2024?

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

    Did some snooping because that is odd. From recent USEP arch plans (Dated August 22, 2023) it appears ever so slightly out of scope: I have to imagine that this passage will be expanded as part of the Scotiabank Arena Reimagination project (as they're branding it), which is meant to be...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    This is an example of education more than enforcement. You were not deterred by any means. Technically speaking, only moral obligation prevented you from disobeying at future opportunities. I’m not suggesting an alternative approach, just calling out very weak evidence.

    TTC: Scarborough Busway Construction (portion of the former Scarborough RT route)

    Please direct these subway construction comments to the appropriate thread: Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Try searching with criteria of publications earlier than 2024. Otherwise everything on Google points to TTC and ML. A cursory search tells me there are bans from 10+ UK-based transit operators, several in Spain, and PATH service in New York. I’m sure there are more if we searched with some...

    Hurontario Zoning Plan For The LRT and Dundas BRT

    Upon closer inspection, I agree.

    [Waterdown] highway 5/6 Interchange | MTO | Arcadis

    First photo is oriented such that 6 north is to the right. 6 will be free flowing, which does improve the current state. I used to work near here a few years ago. The majority of traffic on 5 is turning onto/off of 6 as opposed to traveling through, which makes sense considering how few trip...

    [Waterdown] highway 5/6 Interchange | MTO | Arcadis

    It just happens to be a good sell for high tech business parks. “Brampton Innovation District” is the most foul use of the term in my opinion.

    Hurontario Zoning Plan For The LRT and Dundas BRT

    The document linked above in the original post by drum has some more detailed maps from page 108 onwards. It shows the min/max number of stories per block across Mississauga’s MTSAs, where some have recently been increased. But yes, what’s missing is rationale as to why some areas are so...

    Toronto Toronto | The One | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    Closer to 175m, the halfway point. Prestige next door is 216m for quick reference. Even at a productive pace of 1 floor (~3m height) added each week, it would not top out for another 13-14 months.

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    In the interest of protecting this MPP from misrepresentation, here are his extended remarks:

    Toronto Toronto | The Well | 174.03m | 46s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    That makes a lot more sense, but 10am on a Monday is no time for deductive reasoning 🤣

    Toronto Toronto | The Well | 174.03m | 46s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    Their trousers look great and last a long time, even the slim fits are comfortable for cycling. They’re regularly $138 before tax so I always get them 40-70% off during their employee friends/family sales (I have a couple close friends working there). Other clothes are good quality but all...

    Toronto Toronto | The Whitfield | 130m | 39s | Menkes | Giannone Petricone

    Sherbourne is closed today for crane use. They’re installing a couple massive slabs that span the first two stories of the street facade. Hard to get a good shot of them now but I think these will look excellent! Expect a similar closure and installation on the Front street side, as these...

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I figured as much 5 months ago! They should hire me on as a consultant, I expect to work 4 hours/week and receive a full time salary.

    I’m imagining a big PR event about something not newsworthy. Line 2 fleet replacement funding: agreement in principle, ie. non-binding agreement woohoo!

    Toronto Toronto | The One | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    Spotted some kind of banner flying through the sky while I was snapping a pic of The One. Shot from Forno Cultura, 507 King E. Great vantage point if anyone has a decent camera!

    Toronto Toronto | CIBC SQUARE | 241.39m | 50s | Hines | WilkinsonEyre

    Looking at the steel work up top, safe to say there are no more floors to go.
