    Toronto Toronto | The Saint | 151m | 47s | Minto Group | Wallman

    I think there may have been some renderings on UT but the ones I saw were distributed/shown at an online meeting. Basically, they (Cartera) were going to narrow Colborne from Church to Leader Lane and make woonerfs not curbs and the north end of Leader Lane was to look like Market Street but...

    Toronto Toronto | Sugar Wharf Condominiums (Phase 1) | 231m | 70s | Menkes | a—A

    The article actually said that the street is 'unassumed' (not underutilised) and I assume the City will refuse to take it over until this is fixed.

    That is true but, being even older than you, I must say that at the time it did not feel like "I had won the lottery" and I think that MY parents felt THEY had had it a bit easier.

    Why would you do that? The gas pipe clearly seems to have strayed well into the planned ROW.

    This has now been picked up by The Fixer in The Star. See:

    TTC: Easier Access Phase III

    To schedule work on many stations you hardly want to do them one at a time as each is unique. Ideally you do them in 'groups' and that's what TTC tried to do.

    Toronto Toronto | Cherry Place | 55.7m | 13s | Rekai | Montgomery Sisam

    Seems a bit unnecessary to bump a thread to post a photo that shows NO CHANGE.

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    Well, I registered online on November 4th, the strike started on November 15 and their letter is dated November 22. It should surely have been possible to exclude those already registered right up to the date of the letter AND the letter should (but does not) say "If you have already...

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    It has certainly never been very 'forward thinking' for utility projects but in the past they have been pretty good at listing major City and TTC projects - though often not getting the year just added fully 'populated' for several months.

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    In early November I used the City's new online portal to register that our home is not vacant. Very simple to do and they email a 'receipt". Yesterday, we received a (personalised) letter (Canada Post) from the City telling us to register. So much for having improved and simplified the...

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

    As you (and many of us) have said: " Until we hear from admin on this, there's not really much more to say "

    Waterfront Transit Reset Phase 1 Study

    All seem viable options but I REALLY think that if there are 'workable' stop-gap answers we will NEVER see proper public transit on QQE. Time to get their acts together!!!

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

    I think this whole conversation would be more useful if we knew what the UT policy actually is! Are the Mods simply too busy (or hung over?) to get involved and remove some content or are they happy that some of the photos show us things we had never seen before and that nobody died or made an...

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

    Yes, the Mods have been surprisingly absent during this discussion - is the UT hit squad on break?

    Toronto Toronto | The George | ?m | 4s | Old Stonehenge | Studio JCI

    This project seems to be VERY slowly moving towards completion but no word if it will still be a Sonder Hotel (at least from Sonder website). Anyone have any idea what is going on? The Old Stonehenge site links to https://www.georgeresidences.ca/ UPDATE: I visited the site today and was told...

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    Infrastructure nerds will be happy to see that the City has updated TOInView to show 2026 projects. https://map.toronto.ca/toinview/ Though there are very few 2026 (only) projects added yet!

    Toronto Toronto | Waterfront Innovation Centre | 53.03m | 11s | Waterfront Toronto | Sweeny &Co

    Since they have not been able to rent the larger area on the ground floor immediately below this I would say they were wise not to try for another retail area here - best left for 'events'

    Toronto Toronto | 1 Sumach | 120m | 35s | Block | gh3

    Martin Trainor, who is the long-term and now (I think) only tenant told me several years ago that it was not in great shape as the owners had done virtually zero maintenance for 20 years. It may now be in the situation where a demolition would occur 'spontaneously' if only one piece were...

    Toronto Toronto | 1 Sumach | 120m | 35s | Block | gh3

    Of course it COULD be moved ( See for a far larger move in 1972!) The actual difficulty is $$$$ and what it could be used for once moved. No point moving it and then fencing it off.
