That took longer than I thought it would.

Google Maps Finally has the island!

No satellite images yet, but since Google Earth has them it's only a matter of time

And all that wild, overgrown, plantlife between Cherry Street and the east sidewalk was just mowed down.

This is where the long-awaited LRT will run - will any of us actually see it? Who knows!

In time for your 100th birthday for sure!

I'm going on a field trip the week after next with a grade 1 class to this park. Besides the playground, any particular thing I should try to get the six year olds to look at? We'll be going by TTC, so I guess we'll get off the bus at Commissioner's and Don Roadway and walking across the Commissioners bridge.

I really enjoyed the bridge over the river valley to the south of the Snow Owl playground. Got most of my drone shots while stood there

That’ll be a fun and informative field trip. Do they still have porta-potties out or have they hauled them out for winter?

Hope this wasn't anything like shooting live artillery shells over the I-5 the other day... >.<

That's a very good question, and one we should know the answer to before setting out. Does anybody know?

The 6 porta-potties in the white trailer were still there this past weekend. It looks like they are getting close to finishing up the old firehouse washroom as well. This was taken October 10th. The fences were still up around the old firehouse this past weekend though.

 

[GameOnBrad]

Walked by today on my daily walks. They are well into interlocking all around the old firehouse.

And what are they digging for now on the north side of the orange bridge.
