Lake Shore Boulevard East median trees and curbs are in with a pile more trees to go off to the side.

Looks like they are prepping a permanent fence along Commissioners, east of the Don Roadway. Looks like the temporary fence will be coming down soon.

Thanks, great updates. Let's hope they continue the sidewalk on north side of Commissioners east of the bridge.

LRT plans are to go up and down Cherry St then across commissioners over to Leslie St.

In the first Master Plan approval staage in 2006(?) there was an LRT line on the Lake Shore but TTC removed it when the Province wanted the Master Plan broken down into 3 sections. We did not learn of this unril 2008 when we started the EA work on the Cherry St Line. The Unwin line got removed by the City a few years later as they did not see the line happen in the next 50 years
 
Yes it's much clearer now from this photo. The million dollar question is when will the new ramps and hybrid construction from the Gardiner expwy to the DVP began (and end)? Anybody?

Amazing shot! I can finally visualize how they will re-align the Gardiner to allow for development along the Keating channel

Thanks! I was going to do my traditional direct overhead shoot down shot, but I forgot to apply for a zone unlock for west of the Don River before I headed out, so this is as close as I could get to the invisible geo-fence. In a way it actually made for a more interesting shot.
