    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    Both the main Apple Wallet and FAQ pages were captured by archive.org on December 17th. It may take a short amount of time to load: https://web.archive.org/web/20231217015757/https://prestocard.prestoiits1.net/en/about/presto-in-mobile-wallet/apple#buy-a-new-card...

    Toronto Love Park | 3m | 1s | City of Toronto | CCxA

    I think it's pretty clear they pulled back on the year round water plan. The entire summer and fall that the park has been open, the water level observed in the pond was the "winter" level, never approaching the higher summer line that's meant to go right up to the red tiling. This is pretty...

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    I don't know how accurate this is, but in the reddit post it was mentioned that the card stores balance and pass values. If both the physical card and the phone pass card are used concurrently, they could become unsynchronized. Additionally, it's logical to restrict the card's use to prevent...

    Looks like they're working on floor plate details.

    The lack of detailed landscape lighting is disappointing. I was surprised to see there was no lighting on the pond island, no lighting at the bases of the trellis, or any kind of illumination in or around the pond itself. What we have seems pretty basic and to meet the minimum requirements...

    That depends on the size of drone. Anything above 250 grams would have issues flying south of Bloor in most of the city due to proximity to Billy Bishop and heliports. Below 250 grams, and it's a micro-drone that you're allowed to essentially fly anywhere as long as it isn't in a reckless...

    It's open! There are a few crews both finishing up and enjoying the shade. The off-leash dog space is still fenced off and there's work still in progress around the pond support building. The official city park sign designates it as "Love Park". It's visible at the corner of...

    I was wondering about this as well. The project renders do show stones covering the entire pond. Could it still be planned? There were a few pallets of materials still at the site yesterday, and they've drained the pond to do more work around the water inlets along the perimeter. Perhaps they...

    Don't you love it when someone steals your photos for that sweet reddit karma. :rolleyes:

    June 14, from this afternoon. The pond's water surface looks great at ground level, especially when there's a breeze causing waves.

    May 28th from The Second City: Super excited to see this park finally open. It's come a long way from when they tore down the offramp back in 2017:

    Harbourfront Centre

    A month later and the patio decks for Boxcar Social and Harbourfront Centre look complete. The western portion around the trees has progressed. From what I can tell, they've shifted the hoarding beyond the patio area, which makes me think they plan to start using the patios before finishing...

    More work is being done on the pathways to the north-west, and they've started laying stones into the pond. Is the whole pond interior going to be covered like this?
