    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Thank god I missed that. Was passing through Union TTC when the tweet came in that my Milton train was cancelled and without missing a beat got on the Subway. I'm so lucky that that's an option for me.

    Everyone's asking "how many coffee shops does Union need?" when the question should be "how many can it support?" And it seems the answer is "more than there are now". Notwithstanding the terrible service at Timmie's that creates huge lineups at every location (it's not the volume that's the...

    No fan of Karygiannis, but TBH I don't know the fare, and I ride transit every day. Just tap and go.

    Which is annoying for me as my train is on track 4. Waiting behind people tapping for trains on 13+...

    Or make them big enough to read, and redesign the screen layout - they're insanely hard to read.

    Toronto Station Place | 134.72m | 40s | First Capital | Diamond Schmitt

    We, too, live at 35. Sadly I think we'll have moved by the time Farm Boy opens though.

    Toronto 4 Beamish Drive | 143.7m | 44s | Amdev | Graziani + Corazza

    Not sure I'd use "iconic". Pervasive, overpowering, consuming, combative, aggressive - I feel those are better words to describe the Cinnabon smell at Union (also when it was at Eglinton). I consider the smell from Cinnabon to be analogous with the Euro house music blasting from Stitches and...

    I got the impression that whoever wrote that F+P piece simply doesn't know what cubist means.
