    Toronto Toronto | The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    The gold looks very Apple-esque! I'm lovin it!! Stollery's building would be proud

    Toronto Toronto | Eaton Centre (Ongoing Renewal) | ?m | ?s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

    Honestly if they put some money to rejuvenate the original tile, they'd likely have a more premium aesthetic, a luxury look. + uplift rents

    Toronto Toronto | U of T: John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design | 18.9m | 3s | U of T | NADAAA

    I love the mural, takes a bland and sterile glass wall and adds some excitement and colour to it. No where better to do this than on a university building, and I'm sure the students appreciate it. Bonus points for incorporate indigenous art to remind us of the land that we're utilizing and...

    Toronto Toronto | 3 Swift Drive | 118.05m | 36s | Republic | Arcadis

    I love this! This stretch of Eglinton is horrid to walk past, hope there is retail on ground level!

    Toronto Toronto | 49-51 Yonge Street | 226.86m | 62s | SmartCentres | a—A

    I don't understand why the City doesn't spend the cash now to build an elevated Heli Pad, surely the cost of that would be a lot less significant than the recurring tax revenue lost by limiting potential productive future density over such a large path area.

    TTC: Bloor Danforth Line 2 West Extension(s)

    Sherway adding housing in the future I dont think is such a big driver here. Dundas West to Cloverdale is already further ahead in adding residential housing. Also curving south increases the amount of track needed and puts the station further away from The West Mall and Eastmall which already...

    TTC: Bloor Danforth Line 2 West Extension(s)

    Idk How much sense it makes to go towards Sherway when all this development is happening along Dundas West.. if extended along Dundas West and West Mall, Mississauga can decide whether they want to extend it with BRT/LRT in the future. I think it may make more sense to have a N/S line...

    St. James Park Revitalization (PMA Landscape Architects)

    I understand frustration, but cmon.. "stuff like this", is just a bit of graffiti, that along with the slightly molding top piece of wood will get cleaned within time. But really? Just a slight nuisance you're ready to give away rights to privacy? As a rational tax payer, the cost of building...

    Toronto Toronto | 2 Queen West | 34.44m | 7s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

    Man I've been waiting forever for this to complete so people can realize how how shitty Eaton Centre's eastern facade/streetscape is. This corner used to be lively, albeit a bit grimy, but lively nonetheless. Sad to see this project dragged out so long.

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

    Should have been underground.. with the way GM is developing.

    Toronto Toronto | East Harbour | 214.2m | 65s | Cadillac Fairview | Adamson

    That competitive spirit amongst members is what makes this virtual forum amazing and often the first place news is broken in this city. Never change UT, never change.

    Toronto Surface Transit Network Plan

    Which two would those be? Entirely is a stretch lol I didn't know there were street car tracks on Queensway much past the Humber River? Same goes for Kingston, I didn't know the tracks went past VP. Oh I hear you, but why fall short? As those routes are fixed ridership on the interconnecting...

    Toronto Surface Transit Network Plan

    Just looking at areas that they've really missed including based on that map: 1) Kennedy Road - from Sheppard East to Eglinton East 2) Warden Avenue - from Ellesemere to St Clair East 3) Kingston Road - from Queen to Eglinton 4) The West Mall - Renforth to Dundas/ Sherway 5) The Queensway

    Toronto Toronto | Rail Deck Development | 239.43m | 72s | LIUNA | Sweeny &Co

    I hear you, didn't think of it that way. ~ Im not so up to date with their claim for the land (air space), but I'm guessing in that case they've been able prove their rights. But without the city's cooperation on achieving density here, wouldn't it be in their best interest to float the deal...

    Toronto Toronto | Rail Deck Development | 239.43m | 72s | LIUNA | Sweeny &Co

    Even if we let them reach for the stars on density? It does go through the heart of the city 😥

    Toronto Toronto | Rail Deck Development | 239.43m | 72s | LIUNA | Sweeny &Co

    I'd say let the developer build density, but try to negotiate maximum parkland as part of the development but also try to secure some Section 37 funds to invest in the other parks around the city. I know this is probably a pipe dream.. but I think a large part of the lack of access to parkland...

    Toronto Toronto | 419 College Street | 43.15m | 13s | BDP Quadrangle

    I agree with you wholeheartedly, but the planning and rules that mold development in Toronto need to change, all the safety regulation in a new development make it economically less feasible to permit building smaller but more retail units. Building code needs to be more lax and efficient rather...

    Toronto Toronto | Golden Mile Shopping Centre Redevelopment | ?m | 48s | Choice Properties | Giannone Petricone

    I lived few minutes walk north of here for a majority of my childhood, love how the Golden Mile is becoming Scarboroughs new density cluster. I just wish more of these projects along the Golden Mile included office space, so the GM can stay true to its name in terms of being a place where...

    Laneway Housing University of Toronto (3s, Baird Sampson Neuert)

    How does this speak to the financial feasibility of laneway housing being a financially viable option for homeowners that own properties zoned for this?
