    Toronto Toronto | Scotiabank North Tower at Bay Adelaide Centre | 140.2m | 32s | Brookfield | KPMB

    ^^ yeeesh. Just dropping by to say that Brookfield should dedicate a new POPS or at least a plaque to the bike couriers who used to blaze here.

    The “Jacob’s Ladder” rope lattice between the hands has been installed as of Thursday afternoon. Apologies for the dodgy photo.

    Toronto Toronto | 28 River Street | 65.76m | 18s | Liberty Development | BDP Quadrangle

    Might I recommend the following alternatives, all within 5-10 minutes walking distance: Eastbound Brewing (700 Queen St E) Saulter Street Brewery (31 Saulter St) Longslice Brewery at the Aviary Brewpub (484 Front St E) The Riverside LCBO also has a very good beer selection.

    Toronto Bike Share

    You're seeing Metrolinx logos because they're funding the expansion and new equipment in partnership with TPA. Shift Transit Inc. manages Bike Share Toronto under contract to TPA, the owner.

    Toronto Toronto | 422 Wellington West | 14.33m | 2s | Allied | ERA Architects

    I see what you mean. Lamb's bedrooms tend to have relatively generous dimensions, but that's a squeeze (I have a wide-shallow layout myself).

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

    I'm certain it's the site's toxic past they've been digging up. I've been holding my breath and speed-walking past it every morning. The construction workers aren't wearing respirators or anything! I've noticed that the same fumes waft into the Distillery every so often - I guess whenever...

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

    I must say this is the smelliest excavation in recent memory. Very poor air quality in the area around the construction site.

    Toronto Love Park | 3m | 1s | City of Toronto | CCxA

    Hopefully these spectacular parks will draw some pedestrian tourists off of the bike lanes.

    Toronto Breweries, Brew Pubs, Bottle Shops

    This has been around for a couple of months, but I don't think it's been mentioned here yet: Former contract brewer Longslice Brewery are a partner in The Aviary Brewpub in Corktown (Canary District) and have some brewing facilities and retail on site.

    Farm Boy expansion in the GTA

    I really don't care for Sobeys and hope we won't be seeing drab Compliments brand products and unremarkable prepared foods in Farm Boy stores. News briefs say that the current Co-CEO is to continue management for the long term, so hopefully that's a sign that they'll leave it alone. Maybe...

    The Beach(es)

    Play centres in general struggle to compete with summer activities. A few really good ones have come and gone between Leslieville and the Beaches. It's a shame, because they're an important resource, especially during parental leave.

    A poor man's Mirvish Village redevelopment.

    East Bayfront: Parkside/Bayside/Dockside neighbourhoods Overview

    It's bizarre how many people prefer views of desolate industrial brownfields and parking lots compared to hopping mixed-use neighbourhoods.

    Restaurant Comings & Goings

    A stodgy corporate structure that has been unable to capitalize on the Austin-driven resurgent popularity of Tex-Mex. The original Ottawa location in the late '80s must have been so, so good. I remember having a birthday lunch (1993, age 10) at the Front & Simcoe location and one of the...

    St. Lawrence Market lower level redevelopment

    I visit the lower level almost daily and do most of my grocery shopping there. The merchants are making the most of an awkward space, and if they've agreed to the changes, then great. The place deserves to be way busier on weekdays. I'm most excited about enhancements to the creepy, derelict...
