Apparently GoodLife wasn't able to renew their lease and is moving out of this building in November

The one at Queen and Bathurst looks to have also now permanently closed, the sign is gone and the windows are covered. It shut down at the start of the pandemic, so that leaves none on Queen between John and Ossignton

Can we actually do that? Or is that what you'd like to see?

Are they putting in planter boxes as well? Although I appreciate the new curbs on Richmond, I wish they had kept the planter boxes instead of just putting them on the sidewalk.

I guess with all the new stations, complaints were bound to happen. Not sure what makes a bike share station so unappealing. https://www.iheartradio.ca/newstalk-1010/news/man-says-concerns-over-new-bike-share-rack-have-been-ignored-by-his-city-councillor-1.12844324

I'm glad there's a plan to deal with flooding on the Island, but I'm concerned Hanlan's seems to be left out. Anyone know if they city has plans to deal with the erosion on that beach? Every year it's becoming increasingly smaller.

I knew a GO / Smart Track station was being proposed here, but I haven't heard that it would also be a UPX station. I know many communities in the west end pushed for additional UPX stations when the line was first being proposed and Metrolinx pushed back arguing that would slow down the trains...

This article that was just posted says a new UPX station is being planned for 36 Lisgar St. First I've heard. Anyone have details to share? https://urbantoronto.ca/news/2020/02/commercial-opportunity-prime-intensification-property-sale-trendy-queen-west

They're finally expanding Bike Share to the Islands? About time! Hopefully they don't just put one station on Centre, but include Hanlan's and and Ward's too.

Whole Foods is coming across the street? Has that been publicly confirmed?

I briefly heard a report on MetroMorning today about a community meeting last night where Metrolinx talked about changes to the rail path over the next two years since they need to build an additional track. Anyone have more details? Will this further delay expansion of the rail path south to...

How does holding the door open on one train cause the entire system to go down?

That's not bike friendly at all. Crossing Strachan on bike at any intersection is not easy. If the intention of the bridge was to provide a safer passage for pedestrians and bikes to access the waterfront shouldn't they have included a bike path along Fort York Blvd?

Is there a good connection for bikes from the bridge to the waterfront trail?

Wasn't the bridge supposed to open last month?
