The Gas Station is not being demolished due to impending construction of new towers,.... the Development Application only came in last October, it'll take at least 5 years for this to be appealed, then Flipped, then tinkered, then construction begin likely closer to 10 years,...

So what's really going on with the Gas Station? First, due to environmental laws all gas stations are required to change their gas storage tanks about every 20 years or so,... which usually result in rebuild of entire Gas Station. Another possibility is,... Gas Station realizing they won't be here long term, decides not to renew lease when due,....

Yep the exact same thing is happening to the gas station at Don mills and Steeles, I think they're just replacing the tanks.

Hopefully they leave the park there alone. While it's home to a rat colony, the last thing this neighbourhood needs is another park solely for kids.
