Perks strikes again?

With this and Mount Dennis, UPE is slowly morphing into the North West Toronto metro line that progressives advocated for when it was first announced! Local service trumps "business travellers!" Electrification next!

Would this be the area they're designing? Where will the City park their tractors, side-by-sides, fork lifts and golf carts???

Any insights into what opportunities this opens up for Exhibition Place? Any existing/masterplan/wish-list type projects that could made possible or be more likely to move forward now that the site no longer has to accommodate the Indy? Would love to see an update to the long term vision from...

Thursday evening, from Dundas and Sheridan

"Nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded!"

The bare metal traffic light poles are so ugly. Why not a coat of paint? A splash of colour?? Dark green???

With the school staying where it is, it's going to be very annoying for people living in the 40s tower to walk ~500m all the way around to the school to get the to the UPX station that is only about 100m away from their building. Maybe a zipline from the roof?

Soil testing on site? Taken Thursday March 13.
