those mechanical floor corners look ripe for pigeons and if we're lucky falcons. I'm assuming there will be some sort of bird prevention set up on those corners?

the basement mall would like a word with you

can't wait to see the glass and paneling once it passes the mechanical floor. i'd love to see how it looks with the mechanical floor.

is it possible he's just spewing venom out of anger and frustration and that things actually aren't going to change that much?

building is kind of ugly but it's a million times better than a rubble patch and there's ground floor retail.

yea, this isn't the original location of Battlefield House. "The two-storey Georgian-style dwelling was completed in 1880 and was remodelled by five successive generations of the Nash family. In 1999, it was relocated to Battlefield Park and today houses a gift shop, exhibit gallery, and unique...

correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't battlefield house actually moved there after the fact? it was originally across the street and further east i believe. also I understand the monument but i'm not sure where you're getting the whole "it's meant to be the highest thing in the area". where does...

bring it on. we need the housing.

the ground level should be retail if it's an affordable seniors residence. maybe groceries or a drug store or a clinic. I think all along Barton there should be ground floor retail.

i think apple will come back. They cancelled the deal yes, but that doesn't mean they aren't/won't be renegotiating it with more favourable terms.

yes, i think so too. there will be some large changes this year in coaching (i think). i think hype will return next year but i think everyone will be a little more guarded and reserved in saying the Jays are a World Series contender. I went 5 jays games this year (2 at the dome). i 'm hoping...

terrible series, lets tear this place apart now.

i love that theres a sign that says uptown. this is no longer uptown. also, directly to the left of the pic, i love 1BE and understand the need for density but i'll forever miss Roy Sq.

oh my, just some cladding

excellent show. now we wait for engineers around the world to race to create worlds tallest duck. a new "war" is upon us.

i hope they start right after Cirque du Soleil. i'd love for the Rock games to return.

i did not know that. Augusta street looks great. i assumed all the ground floor retail was restored older buildings. thats amazing.

i do too but my point stands. if Rogers officially called it Rogers Skydome, everyone would drop the rogers and just call it Skydome. at least with Rogers Centre you have everyone internationally calling it that. There will always be a portion of the population that calls it the Skydome...

the reason why they don't go with something like Rogers Skydome is that "Rogers" will forever be dropped from the name and it would still be SkyDome. at least with Rogers Centre, everyone calls it that (other than the purists of course). but yea, i can all but guarantee they're shopping the...

i know the area well and it's underserved by transit. i grew up around there. my school lunch times consisted of going to Music World and then heading to the foodcourt and having a smoke. I get why it needs parking. it's just a sad state of affairs in Mississauga. for a city that big...
