2017 has been a big year for UrbanToronto, and we have been pretty busy covering the seemingly endless high-profile developments adding to Toronto. So far this year, we've covered major news on four different supertall towers, toured unfinished rapid transit projects, and published a comprehensive series highlighting the countless new developments in various stages of activity across the city. (We did count though: there were 840.)
