It's no Marilyn, but it's good enough for Toronto.

That said, I really do like it.

Oh you smug Mississaugans with your international competitions and your surface LRT plans.

I'd laugh if that didn't make me cry.

I think the 'Marilyn' looks great where it is in Mississauga, however I think it would look silly in downtown Toronto.

I think it would look incredible. Imagine the beautiful curves of the Met coming off Carlton Street but intensified. I would want the towers in a denser part of downtown though, to contrast with a boxy streetwall. But I have to admit, the fact that there is space around them in MCC is also what makes them so successful as sculptures.

He says....where we are looking forward to construction starting in March; Strange that he is still looking, could be April maybe May or even June, who knows, hopefully sometime in 2011.

Do you understand what the phrase "looking forward to" means?

 

[buildup]

I agree with Automation that "looking forward to" is a more hedged statement than 'expecting'.

Not that we need to be dissecting everyone's comments as though they were the Federal Reserve Chairman.

I disagree. "Expecting" is just as uncertain.
