    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    More likely that someone painted the wall red and the power washing was not as effective on the grout - which tends to be much more absorbent than tile. However, time to move on...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I agree that the 2 white tiles are wrong but suspect the coloured grout is someone coulouring white grout with a pen - it appears that the colouring is all at arms reach. Vandalism maybe? The brick wall is clearly being rebuilt - if the bricks have been like that for weeks then someone HAS...

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

    Is that a large asphalt patch I see in top 2 photos?? EDIT/UPDATE I went to investigate on my walk and it is EARTH. Someone clearly tipped over one of the planters!

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    "The federal government appoints judges to the federal courts, the superior courts of the provinces/territories, and the Supreme Court of Canada." .Though I generally agree that most things should be handled by the lowest level of government possible and thus agree that it might be better if...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    I certainly would be on sidewalk!

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

    As noted above, the hold-up here at T&S is Toronto Hydro who suddenly decided that one of their vaults needed to be rebuilt. I agree it is ridiculous that T&S were allowed to start fixing the sidewalk in early December without everything being set to be completed but .....

    Toronto Toronto | Canary House | 50.3m | 13s | Dream | BDP Quadrangle

    I kinda like the splash of orange. Here is what it used to look like:

    Not NEARLY as much progress as I had hoped to see.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Though the cost seems high, the Star article linked to above says: "Should the TTC alter Pioneer Village Station’s name, the standard cost would be around $1.5 million, according to Green." It would mean changing all their in-vehicle maps, other signage etc etc.

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    As does the police chief who also needs to look VERY carefully at the evidence his officers gave and which was clearly coordinated and incorrect.

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    Yes, sorry https://www.cp24.com/news/jury-finds-zameer-not-guilty-in-death-of-toronto-police-officer-1.6855899

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    Not too surprising and certainly shows that one should not jump to assumptions before knowing all the facts. A man accused of fatally running over a Toronto police officer has been found not guilty. Umar Zameer pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder in the death of Det. Const. Jeffrey...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Names change all the time and for lots of reasons - the Sony Centre became Meridian Hall and Skydome changed to Rogers Centre because the sponsorship changed, Dundas Square changed because some people misunderstood history and Mr Dundas is now reviled. One could avoid all of this changing of...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Frankly, if one is going to visit the "Village at Black Creek" and is confused that the nearest TTC station is "Black Creek Pioneer Village" you probably should not leave home without adult supervision.

    Toronto Toronto | Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    The 'spillway' going south into the Ship Channel is there to deal with high water events, this is to avoid 'flood events' and if water goes south into it, it should really not be called one.

    Barbara Hall Park revitalization

    Great minds think alike (or, maybe, fools seldom differ!) :->

    Barbara Hall Park revitalization

    As it is a very small park, I doubt all of this could actually fit! Maybe its time to decide if we want parks that offer everything to everyone poorly or offer top rate facilities to most people. If the 519 and the Park were 'programmed' together it could be better - shared toilets, 519 cafe...

    The existing northbound track from King to Queen remains, they are installing new southbound track from Queen to Adelaide. It's not rocket science. Here is the future 501 route map. The existing track from Front north to Wellington/King to Adelaide will be available for detours (and the...
