There is a separate thread for the North Market but to save you time, the answer is "sooner or later" see: https://urbantoronto.ca/forum/threads/toronto-st-lawrence-market-north-25-3m-5s-city-of-toronto-rogers-stirk-harbour.778/

Great shots but I had hoped to see more progress! When is the second Lake Shore lane/bridge opening? (BTW, sometime can you try for a few shots showing the area going further out, interested to see how the debris area is coming along.

You seriously expected any 'urgency'? If the City/Province had any interest in improving traffic delays they would have finished this diversion track BEFORE they closed Queen Street. As usual it was all 'planned' at the last minute and then got bigged down by the usual utility companies - yes...

Though this Plan has been finished for some time, I do not think it has ever been linked to from here and that it was only recently added to City website/ https://www.toronto.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/9803-St.-Lawrence-MarketStrategic-Plan-Updated-Photos-Version-3-compre...-FINAL-AODA.pdf...

Clearly we will need to stop ALL parking on roadways too and, as noted above, no patios and certainly no road lane closures for developers. Sigh.

As the bridges are being removed by Enbridge and WT, I doubt Metrolinx would be sending out bike path paving updates but .....

I seem to remember many attempts with the tiles dating back to ca 2010 (when the driveway was changed). At that time, efforts were made to reuse the older pavers as they were "heritage" but they seem now to be using new replacements.

Spoken like a true UTer. If things are good, there are perils in store and if things are bad then that's just to be expected.

Happy to see this but a bit surprised as I would assume bridge removal (Old Eastern and Enbridge). Would screw up the new paving. Maybe they will open from at least King to Corktown?

Pretty much all the overhead support cables - the ones that run across the street - and the hangers - the things the contact wire hangs from - were up a couple of weeks ago and they had certainly strung some of the power cables and contact wires.

One of the 'requirements' when the building was being planned was a mid-block pedestrian connection and these are very useful. This large one is certainly better than the rat hole at Jarvis//Adelaide (Vu) but .. Problem is that there are condo entrances on Lower Sherburne but zero parking...

Pigs might fly!

The station, AFAIK. I think the tunnel boring starts in West Don Lands, where the underground line starts.

Though the UT database page is great. If you used Google you would see TONS of info and location info.

If fraud and duplication are a problem with OHIP cards are they not an equal problem with driving licences (or Ontario ID cards)? I know that I can buy a Provincial ID card but if OHIP had an address I would not need to
