Nice to see the Blue Jays Tower in our skyline…

Work continues on the underpass on the East Don trail. I wasn’t able to make my first trip through this morning so I’ll have to return. I don’t know if the image captures the drop between the bridge and underpass. It is a tight turn with speed so I expect the occasional collision will occur here.

This bridge work is in Phase 2 of the East Don trail. It is north of Eglinton.

In the valley, below the crossing to Don Mills Rd . There is lots of activity on both sides and a large store of scaffolding and stairs.

I disagree. Yes Don Mills Road is busy in this area but unlike many other suburban streets the sidewalks in this stretch are grade separated and safely protected. As a pedestrian I feel very comfortable here. I can’t wait for this place to open. This has been in some form of planning since...

This is foundation work in the valley just west of Don Mills Road where the Ontario line will cross. I’m not sure if this is related to the bridge, it is directly below the power lines. In the meantime, archery practice continues right next door

Phase 1 of the trail has some beautiful growth just south of the overhead bridge below Bermondsey. Some more work was done at the tunnel construction site. It looks like pipelines were transferred onto the steel beams. And some additional metal is stored at the site:

The East Don Trail site hosted by the TRCA says that "The tunnel-associated works are continuing to progress, with track closure dates secured for Spring 2025 to facilitate the installation of the tunnel." :cool...

The Ontario Line from the valley near the Leaside bridge and near the Science Centre.

I agree. Further, the west facing units would have sunset views over a quiet ravine with downtown skyline views to the South West. I imagine there would be significant demand.

At the risk of bringing this thread back to where it was one month+ ago, I am in Hamburg and have spent the last couple of days walking. I’m beside Hafen City and I’m overwhelmed at the similarities between the space here and what is planned for the Lower Don Lands. One month ago there was...

I wanted to see the progress so I took a run yesterday along the route. Below the Bermondsey Transfer Station, a ramp is being built into the side of the ravine and will be part of the bridge. There has been no progress on the underpass further south on the trail. I don’t think a November...

Sunset behind the shops.

Crews were working past 9pm on the summer solstice.

“The east tower’s lobby is inspired by the Gang of Seven”. The Group of Seven weren’t tough enough?😁
