View from Uplands Station today. Emphasis on landscaping. Visiting several new stations in the south end, I'm blown away by the number of trees being planted. Someday, it'll make for a very green leafy commute, in the summer.

Here's something new from yesterday - June 13. Construction barriers (temporarily removed) from Bayview Station. Taking pre-opening publicity shots and possible advertising production. Was chased away by OC Transpo staffer who condescendingly told me I could take better pictures from outside...

Some views of bridge from June 13

Corso Italia Station - Line 2. Station appears to be awaiting additional landscaping. Street edge drains are being installed. Benches on public plaza facing Gladstone installed. Station looks ready.

Bayview Station. Line 2. Lots of activity as testing continues. Notice that "Next Train" system is now working, as is train announcements in station. Heavy landscaping work, yesterday when pictures taken. Many trees and shrubs going in. Like Pimisi, Bayview will have a very green and...

Pimisi Station from Phase 1. I find the thoughtful connections to NCC path and Booth Bridge makes this one of the more unusual stations. Nice views of trains arriving through big glass windows from the plaza outside.

Some one more knowledgeable may have figured this out - but I sat at South Keys and watched how they (seemed) to be managing the interaction between Line 2 and Line 4. The pattern looked like this to me.... North bound train arrives - and sits for 10 minutes South bound train departs and...

World Exchange Plaza from a week ago

I am filled with hope. I have lived in Toronto and now visit from elsewhere. I visited several sites along the waterfront this weekend. Eastern Queen’s Quay was full of people enjoying the weather. I sat and had a glass of wine near Sugar Beach and watched sailboats glide by. I marvelled at...

The repurposing of the 80’s transit was significant. For the most part Line one follows the exact path of the bus transit way corridor. Some stations were repurposed, like St-Laurent and parts of Blair. We see repurposing occurring at several more phase 2 stations, most notably at Bayshore...

Not sure it makes a difference to the overall narrative, but the concrete that fell on the tracks was not new construction - but part of the old busway infrastructure from the late 1980’s that was repurposed to “save money“ for the LRT. This event occurred at S—Laurent. For more on the station...

I agree with Dan. Some of the best meals I’ve had “in transit” anywhere has been on VIA1. But the quality can be variable. On one trip pre-pandemic they were testing receipts/menus suggested by staff. I had a wonderful curry chicken, which you would not expect. Two weeks ago, on a trip from...

Are they not missing a giant opportunity to showcase iconic Toronto skyline from the point. It seems like such a miss to have pavilion orientEd the way it is. Having said that places to sit and enjoy the park are very desirable. Not everyone will be on a bike or canoe.

Some pictures from the Line 4 station at Ottawa Airport. Looks like quality material to match airport structure. Seen here interior connection at north end of Air terminal. Bridge to station. Exterior of station from departures ramp - and from parking structure.

Cool new video of Trillium Line vehicle testing
