So my understanding is the west side of Pape from Gowan to Gamble has been expropriated and they need to be out by Dec 31. I was talking to a proprietor and he said the dislocation of the residents above the shops was more problematic as many have been there for decades. But the residents are...

This is what the corner looks like right now. The brick went up very recently and the photo is from this past weekend. 6-unit rental building according to toronto.com...

The scuzzy McDonald’s at Broadview finally closed. https://www.blogto.com/eat_drink/2020/12/mcdonalds-closed-location-toronto/

V Nails is back open. They must have just been renovating or papered over their windows for some other reason. The restaurant space in that block opened on August 10 as Kings & Queens Gaming Lounge. Or maybe they were open before COVID but not sure. You'd think I didn't walk past it almost...

The V Nails location at O'Connor and Pape has their windows papered over. I'm assuming this means they were evicted.

Interesting. The Goodlife website still has the Danforth location listed as re-opening July 13 (assuming Ontario gives the green light for gym re-openings). Even though I have a Goodlife membership, I rarely go to the Danforth location as the layout is poor, especially for group classes. I...

My daughter attends Girl Guides at Cosburn United Church (at Greenwood). We were informed this week that the church was sold so they are looking for a new meeting venue for the fall. Does anyone know the details on the sale?

So that didn't last long. I don't know when it closed but the space is currently available for rent.

So sad. I just bought something from them last year after the father had died. They seemed to be trying to keep it going but I guess they decided not to in the end. They had posted on their Facebook page in August so I thought they were still open.

I went into ATTO Gifts at Pape and Cosburn for the first time today. What a great little store.

I'm pretty sure they're still open. The website is fotialive and they bill themselves as Toronto's Hottest Live Greek Music Bar. Open 9pm to 2:30am.

Fotia Tapas Bar opened recently at 156 O'Connor (at Pape) in the empty restaurant space. According to their website, they have a house band from Greece and a bit of a strange menu that has a lot of pizza on it. The rumour was that they were going to put in video gambling terminals but I...

The 7-11 at Donlands and O’Connor is closing June 22. They are fairly low on stock already so I’m not sure they’ll make it to that point.

CLICKON Mac Solutions has moved into the corner store at 212 O’Connor (Chilton corner); I think they were down on Eastern previously. I was surprised to see a legitimate business given the history of corner stores selling expired snacks and illegal cigarettes.

On their Facebook page, Bar Hop announced that they’re now open.
