John Street REVITALIZED

Jokes aside, this is actually really nice and should be bare minimum throughout the city. The entire neighbourhood has had a lot of its sidewalks replaced and while they look good for new concrete sidewalks (at least before the saw and asphalt comes out) I wish we took the time to refresh our sidewalk standards. Cities in Australia have such nice pavers.

Not gonna lie, I'm surprised they did anything at all and the painted white brick is kind of funny in a cheapskate way but this doesn't look all that bad.

And even within that scope, many municipalities are still proceeding with bike lane projects (especially outside of Toronto) where traffic impacts are less and they don't think they will get in trouble from the Ministry for it..

Other municipalities know they can do whatever they want because Doug Ford only cares about one city in this godforsaken province.

Pleasantly surprised! Looks like stamped asphalt?

Seems like a low cost quick win that could be replicated in many downtown/dense areas.

Right you are! I went by and it’s pressed into the asphalt. It’s convincing enough, I just wonder how it’ll age.

If this works, I hope they roll it out citywide.
