    Downtown Grocery Store List (current + proposed)

    thanks for the post!... Farm Boy?!.. wow..that is great.. desperately needed around here..-- hope it is full large scale grocery - and not a condensed "urban" store model. they have fantastic fresh foods- and are sooo reasonably priced.. any idea when this is supposed to open..?

    MINISO expansion into the Canadian market

    I will probably get a lot of hate around here-- but I checked out on Friday both the Smart House location of Miniso- as well as the PATH location by my work.. - there is a soft opening... was sooo not impressed.. is it just me?- I mean all this hype.. is soooo overrated.. lots of basic items-...

    Restaurant Comings & Goings

    I remember Mmmuffins.. were everywhere in my teen years..- I work around Scotia Plaza- and there is a Tim Hortons right beside this spot.. I always go to Mmmuffins ,- their green tea is the real stuff- much better than Timmy's- and same goes for their beverages..and their muffins are sooo...

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    uhh.. I am soo sick of Lulemon- and yoga/ athletic type clothing stores- they are everywhere... and taking over what should be real clothes stores.. you go to majority of clothing stores- and there is a huge section just for sportswear aaaand they all look alike- and are taking space- instead...

    Toronto Toronto | MEC Queen Street (Mountain Equipment Coop) | 21.03m | 3s | Parallax | Sweeny &Co

    still think it is ridiculous that this store is now part of Queen St. - it is such a waste of prime real estate, and not in tune with urban life, and is already sticking out like a sore thumb. bad enough it was on King- don't know why the could have just kept it there- I am sure rent is much...

    Sears Canada (1952-2017)

    yes... I totally agree with you on that ..some Sears stores looked messy and didn't have the proper upkeep - and you had to rummage through items they really let themselves go on that one- that is for sure... but prices were reasonable, and quality wise- you can wash and wear them for a long...

    Sears Canada (1952-2017)

    although, we folks have to resort to looking elsewhere ..it is a pain....and can't find what is needed.. Sears always had the goods, and is severely missed...- the quality, pricing...and customer service was top... whatever needed fixing with their appliances..there were no issues getting top...

    Toronto Toronto | Smart House | 82.6m | 25s | Urban Capital | a—A

    that is disappointing... there are a million bubble tea shops around this area.....and Miniso isn't all that... this is prime real estate.. something better should have been there for retail...

    Toronto Toronto | MEC Queen Street (Mountain Equipment Coop) | 21.03m | 3s | Parallax | Sweeny &Co

    soo agree.... still can't believe this store is moving in.. absolutely no need for it- what a waste of real estate... looks uninspiring- the parking lot- had more street cred

    Toronto non-mall retail (Odds & Ends)

    or a Shoppers Drug Mart.. or a Starbucks- and some hipster healthy vegan take out lunch shop.. that is scattering our city... agree- would make a great event space...

    Toronto Toronto | Scotiabank Arena Renovations | ?m | ?s | MLSE | BBB

    nope... cause Air Canada- had the Maple Leaf logo- it was fitting- on soo many levels... it represented Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment- Maple Leafs - Maple Leaf square etc... Air Canada Centre- took flight...pun intended.... it felt patriotic- and was the name from the get go-----far...

    Toronto Toronto | Scotiabank Arena Renovations | ?m | ?s | MLSE | BBB

    well they got to plaster their "naming rights' everywhere - in every sightline possible... total overload...and in your face tackiness...

    Toronto Toronto | Scotiabank Arena Renovations | ?m | ?s | MLSE | BBB

    actually I am a musician, and hardcore concert goer- have been to hundreds of shows there- am a huge music fan... it just says overkill everywhere.. too in your face-- and the pictures that were just posted above of how ACC looks- just verifies my thoughts-- I mean they are obviously getting...

    Shoppers Drug Mart

    where's the guitar?/.. they took it down...

    Restaurant Comings & Goings

    Shoppers is just Shoppers- but it will stand out- physically that is.. like a sore thumb... still cannot wrap my head around it.. couldn't something livelier be there- that would have enhanced entertainment.. instead of another Shoppers

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    there are only 2 other locations I am aware of- 280 Spadina Ave, Dragon City- Spadina Dundas 351 Bremner Blvd across from Skydome ( ya.. I still call it that and won't change it )

    Music Stores (HMV, Virgin, Sunrise)

    uhh... am crushed....it is the END of an era... no cd stores will be left but best buy and Walmart.. doesn't even compare to HMV -- the only one in my area is 333 Yonge St. Toronto still am one of the folks who actually BUY cd's to support Artists I love..
