The first version of our Database file for this site is from June 14, 2011, and the lead-off image was this:

None of these, as you may have understood from the previous reply, is going ahead at this point, at least not along the Golden Mile section of Eglinton. When any of them does advance, you'll see that thread pop to the fore since someone will report actual news. Right now though, Line 5 or not...
