If you were looking for a high end operator of a signature space in a complex that you were leasing out, and the restauranteur were likely to say to you "I'm not serving my salmon meuniere under lights that make it look spoiled, when will then lighting be fixed?!" and you were unable to answer...

I believe that Osmington know what they are doing, and they are looking for a bar/restaurant here, not just a coffee shop. If they say a resto/bar can be done... somehow I trust them to know both what Public Health demands and the hospitality industry needs. Is it your average space? No...

We have a front page story up on this here, and this needs to be highlighted from it: Only two elevators are proposed, or one for every 164 units, which would require unusually high-speed motors to ensure reasonable wait times and service efficiency when both elevators are operating. I'll add...

I refuse to add a laughter emoji to that, it's too disturbingly close to being a possibility! 42

A galley kitchen on a train can be accomplished in only ¾ of the width of a train car (similar in a plane) so this is somewhat wider than that, so they can build a restaurant there, yes! Here's what I have from a retail leasing brochure from the before times in 2016: The lower bit of yellow...

This one may not be a staging platform, but we've had a good number of buildings that have had temporary staging platforms cantilevered over the sides of buildings over the years... it's not typical, but it's not that uncommon. 42

Yeesh, why wouldn't they have paths that actually follow desire lines to cut down on walking times? 42

Toronto finally gets a red light district… and of course it's vertical. 42

We have a new multi-tower community proposed by Diamondwood and Delta Urban between Highway 7 and the Markham-Stouffville Hospital on the east side of Ninth Line. The Cornell BRT Station is immediately to the east. General massing plans for the overall site, and more developed plans by Arcadis...

There's gotta be a bunch of execs at or recently at Neom that would like to put some distance between it and them. Maybe one is historically-artsy? 42

Press Release: TORONTO (June 5, 2025) - The Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) announced today that Josh Basseches has made the decision to step down after a decade in his role as Director & CEO. Under his leadership, ROM has solidified its position as Canada’s most visited museum and now ranks among...

Yup, it's the poor execution of balconies that is bad for buildings, but they can add too when done well! The Majority are lazy though... 42

Yes, thank goodness Aqualuna also has limited balconies! 42

The quality control on the 'flashing' of the brick panels (tone/colour) seems to be non-exisistant. Source; @Rascacielo 42

These are all excellent ideas, although the "whenz this gunna get bilt?" posters just are not realistically going to be able to buy lunch or a pint for all 47,000 UT members, even if each of you deserve it for having to see those posts. I'd suggest members who post "whutz happnin heaaar?" have...

Gilbach just zoned this, looking for a purchaser. This is all they have on their website for it: Industrial 8079 Eighth Line A rare opportunity to acquire a flagship development site, ideal for commercial, entertainment, or hospitality projects. This 47.27-acre property boasts over 1,056 feet...

The architectural plans list a total of 57 dwelling units on the second and third floors. The fourth through seventh floors house 256 more long term care beds in rooms that seem to have 8 each, I assume with privacy screens but not walls between them. We don't have a unit type in the database...
