I was, of course, not suggesting that Unwin should not be fixed up only pointing out that there is a recently resurfaced bike trail close by.

The work re-laying the brick (paver) sidewalks on Front between (at least) Church and Sherbourne is going well. Mostly done between Church and Jarvis and moving next week to the blocks east of Jarvis. Most of these pavers were laid in 2011 and 2012 when work was done on Front and it was about...

Though I think they have had a snow dump there before, this year the snow pile in the Forestry Yard on the south side of Unwin east of the Sports Field (between Unwin and the Martin Goodman) is MUCH larger and its melting is certainly increasing the amount of water in an already wet area - as...

Yes, NEVER bike on Unwin, use the Martin Goodman about 20 meters south!!

Looks good in person too. The bollards are still 'raw' and presumably awaiting their chrome condoms.

Yes, where the stairs used to go down to the bus bays. - I forgot that was Platform 3 too. I used that exit quite often.

Not where the island is shown in middle of Yonge but you could be right that it's the bike track one on The Esplanade

Platform 3 is the one accessed from the doors east of the Great Hall adjacent to the toilets.

Though Hydro (and TTC and City) are slow to remove old poles and equipment, we should remember that if a pole has any 'attachments' then the pole owner needs to nag the attachment's owner to remove it first. Also, though pole removal is important the installation of new poles is undoubtedly...

To Hydro a week is a normal person's month or more! Somewhere above someone was obsessing about the old wooden Hydro poles on Queens Quay at Rees/Robertson. I asked WT and they replied as follows: " "Thank you for reaching out to Waterfront Toronto and for sharing your concerns. For questions...

The Municipal511 site has this info on the roadwork NORTH of the rail berm. They appear to have permission to install an island in Yonge St!

I think the photos make it clear that it has.

Indeed, I think the platforms @ Union actually start at 3 for reasons I forget. (Is it that they counted the two subway platforms??)

I must say I think that making 'official announcements' on private services like Facebook, X or, god forbid, TruthSocial is not a good trend.

Where did you get that idea? I guess from Metrolinx! Odd way for them to announce this change!

Great to know work has started. It's a City project https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2025.MM34.9 MM34.9 - Rehabilitating Amsterdam Bridge at Harbourfront Centre - by Deputy Mayor Ausma Malik, seconded by Councillor Alejandra Bravo

I hope you send this pic to Councillor Mallik and to 311

I guess you are new to the City? :-> That is, obviously, how things OUGHT to be but .....

It is a pretty decent building, though the mechanical box could be FAR better. Being adjacent to the ghastly Time and Space actually makes it seem even better.

Signage can get permits fairly easily IF they are for “first parties” (occupants). So EQ probably has one, Menkes is not the buildings owner, or won’t be when the condo is registered. I doubt they could get a permit. People did complain, clearly no City action, yet.
