Traffic signals are being installed along the new stretch of Bayview, presumably replacing the stop signs. None of the lights are operational yet, and there are still some intersections with signal poles but no lights.

The poles have been up since before the road opened (and I think any necessary by-laws were already dealt with) and the neighbourhood group asked the City recently why the lights were not yet installed. Now I guess they are being done.Traffic signals are being installed along the new stretch of Bayview, presumably replacing the stop signs.

been disappointed that the businesses haven't moved in along with the residents and the students, and have noticed that the developers (I guess?) have taken to posting large banners to attract new business on all the vacant shops. They list the logos for the companies who have already set up shop, as well as some that haven't - like Tori's Bakeshop. Walking along Front, I noticed that the sign for Tori's is still up, but that there is no mention nor indication of the "East Side Meats" that was supposed to go in.
Just wondering what people have heard so far. I see students all the time at No-Frills, and I think its a shame that there's not even a convenience store in there.
No Frills is really pretty close to the WDL and I doubt it can support a full-service grocery yet. A convenience store or even a smaller Rabba would probably be popular and able to survive.Just wondering what people have heard so far.

I live in the area, and would be delighted to have an Indian place close by.the owner of a fantastic, new-ish, family-owned, downtown Indian restaurant told me last week that she had been approached by representatives asking if they wanted to expand and open a second location in this area.
Absolutely -- the No Frills isn't bad, but it would be fantastic to have some place to grab basics (toilet paper, milk, etc.) actually in the neighbourhood.A convenience store or even a smaller Rabba would probably be popular and able to survive.
It's actually the new Canary District condo building, one block east. The signs for the TD have been in the windows of the retail space for a while.I think this is the Canary Restaurant building.
Thank god!It's actually the new Canary District condo building, one block east. The signs for the TD have been in the windows of the retail space for a while.
