How? We haven't even seen any renderings of what the buildings will look like.. or have we? Are the photos we see of the hangar district going to be what the final designs are?

God what a beautiful map, but I hope the midtown line branches to Oshawa via Malvern town centre (which is currently underserved by transit).

Khalil, random, but do you think interlining line 4 with Line 1 at Sheppard West all the way to Vaughan would be a good idea?

I wonder where this went. Was it supposed to be voted through council yesterday? Edit: Looks like it was approved by council, moved by Matlow?

Side note, downsview is kind of planning a "cycling highway" of sorts, which I think may connect to the future Yorkdale development. It may be beneficial to think about a future connection to these plans as well.

This would really push the needle in terms of opening up the yellowbelt and showing how urban transformation of suburban neighbourhoods can make our city more walkable, interesting, cozy, lively, exciting etc. I am so p*ssed off at the residents who rudely interrupted the speakers, I don't...

so would my jockstrap, however that one is a bit... retired.

Just dont think there's enough space, especially if GO is also considering using this corridor as well. Or am I wrong?

The owner told me there will be 8,000 books!

Side note - has anyone been to that new place called "Bunker" in the village? It looks like a great vibe and what the village was kind of missing.

It would be nice to see more urban regeneration from some Scandinavian/UK firms along finch (i'm looking at you SLA), to really make this a transit-oriented and pedestrian-friendly corridor.

Anyone riding today at rush hour? I'm curious how busy it is.
