    Toronto Toronto | St Lawrence Market North | 25.3m | 5s | City of Toronto | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    When I saw this I thought it was a completely different proposal from another firm (that lost). No wonder there was excitement. The current project is almost completely different (and a big downgrade IMO).

    I recall excitement at this being the winning proposal, but I can't help but feel underwhelmed. Perhaps that will change once it's open.

    Toronto Toronto | West Don Lands: Block 13 | 139.31m | 43s | Dream | Henriquez Partners

    Wow. This has transformed from one of my favourite upcoming projects in the city to yet another forgettable, bland "Toronto" condo.

    If only the Mississauga inspiration came from Port Credit instead of Meadowvale...

    Toronto Toronto | 110 Eglinton East | 236.55m | 58s | Madison Group | Rafael Viñoly

    I really like the design. It seems simple enough that they won't have to 'value engineer' anything either, or at the very least it can be kept to a minimum. The splash of colour is welcome in this area. Would be great if the 2nd set of towers had a different shade.

    Toronto Toronto | East Harbour Transit Hub | 14.35m | 1s | Metrolinx | Metrolinx

    I can't believe we're bungling these once-in-a-generation opportunities so badly.

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Can't say I'm impressed. I realize these are preliminary, but they rarely improve. Too bad the Unilever soap factor is almost gone.

    Nuit Blanche

    Anyone check it out this year?

    Toronto Toronto | Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    This is absurd. We're now waiting for an update for an update.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    I'm sorry I missed this farewell. I always enjoyed using the RT and found it very underappreciated.

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    These new plans look great as renderings, but I'm not sure how it'll all work practically. How much of the new park space is actually usable, and what will it be used for? Curious to see more details.

    2023 Ontario Liberal Leadership Race

    Agreed. Not sure she'd be the best choice from a policy perspective, but she seems to be the most electable candidate the Liberals have had in years.

    Danforth Line 2 Scarborough Subway Extension

    This was one of the key arguments for the SSE (on the forum) - the injustice of a transfer, having to move up and down different levels. It's a fact of life people who use the subway/transit in the city. I can't believe how poorly planned this all has been. It's like the SSE had a certain...

    Toronto Maple Leafs

    He challenged for goalie interference, so it wasn't a challenge on the same thing. I understand the frustration, but I also understand why he did it - to let the team know he has their backs, and is doing everything possible to give them a shot. In hindsight not a great move, but maybe what...

    Toronto Toronto | Rogers Centre Renovations | ?m | ?s | Toronto Blue Jays | Populous

    The renovations and new spaces seem to be getting rave reviews. Looking forward to seeing it all in person. I still find it hard to believe after all the phases are complete this place will have only a decade or so of life left in it.

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    I listened to the conference and chuckled when Ford said (paraphrased) 'I have such fond memories of visiting Ontario Place, when our family would dock our boat...' So relatable. Always looking out for the little guy. 👍

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    This really puts things in perspective. The spa takes up such a large portion of the available space.

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    He said "the southern extension". The original DRL was entirely a 'southern extension' so what else would he be referring to? His previous commentary highlighted that section for criticism.

    Toronto Toronto | Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I'm pretty sure he's not calling for the project to be cancelled, but the southern portion west of Osgoode. As for the cost, is it any surprise? This and the Scarborough extension will likely be many billions more than initially quoted.

    Is this the first we're hearing of it?
