Sure, that would make sense if this was random off-topic derail sprung up of a relatively inactive project sight. However, the building's proprietors where caught having boundary issues that effects this site which sprouted thread topic at hand...so currently it's fair game, IMO.Can we move messages about the privacy issue to another thread and leave this one about the construction related to TEC?
That said.. if the eaton centre still had its mid 1990s appearance nobody would go there. It would be that dingy unattractive mall you avoid.
I do think people have a hard time accepting this. Without going through allowing the mall to remain dated, we can't know for sure but I do believe that if they hadn't refreshed the look of the Eaton Centre to make it "new again", that people would choose to go to Yorkdale to spend their day. Of course, being downtown, the Eaton Centre would still be busy but then again, look at the Atrium. It's right there at the crossroads of Canada's busiest pedestrian intersection and on some days you could bowl down the empty halls.
Cool. I just remember this as an old Eatons / Sears exit (emergency exit?). I am assuming this is an entrance for office space on the former retail floors. Although... there's a bridge to the Ryerson building now? Is Ryerson using some of the space here?December 12, 2020

I don't know. Sherway Gardens kept its 80s era identity for a LONG time and was always bumping. I loved that they were retaining the look; it made it an iconic destination. When Cadillac Fairview did their huge round of renos, they ruined the place (IMO). It's a generic mall now, no different from any other you'd find in the GTA. A lot of stores are vacant now too.
AND ugh they ripped out ALL the greenery. Took the "Gardens" right out of "Sherway Gardens".
Not just your opinion, 90% of people on UT think the same way. Cadillac ruined the original vibrancy of Sherway, and their renovations made Sherway just bland and sterile (with the exception of the curved skylight section of the mall). All of CF's interior mall renovations have been lackluster and dull.I don't know. Sherway Gardens kept its 80s era identity for a LONG time and was always bumping.

Correct, it also connects to the Nordstrom store employee entrance and emergency stairwells for both Nordstrom and the now BMO offices.I believe that’s to the above grade parking underneath the Ryerson building.

What made the Eaton Centre feel like the Eaton Centre was that it felt like the outside, inside. The big atrium glass roof and the trees played a major role in that. The atrium is still there but the trees are gone, other than some potted plants. As it is right now, the Eaton Centre feels very sterile. Reintroducing trees back into the atrium would bring back a lot of that feel, even without the white metal banisters.
