I sat on it and recalled seeing a Costco attached to a mall somewhere in Florida once when I was younger. But it definitely is the exception to the rule. Especially for a Canadian context. Primaris has made it seem like they have a good idea of what they're going to do with the Bay space, and my...

Has WB developed any of its land holdings? The lack thereof is what I glare at them for, but it might be too early to judge quality or cheapness. They are leaving money on the table, if anything

Does Costco ever locate next to malls? None come to mind in the GTA. I also don’t think we’re due for another Costco.

I don’t know about that specific type, but there are a few manufacturers of “old-style” windows around southern Ontario thanks to our heritage and the efforts of people to maintain those. It is more of a boutique, Stratford-esque thing, though- not as much here. Waterloo taps into it I believe...

Windows being installed on the left (west) building as of this morning:

Almost can’t believe something is happening. I am cautiously optimistic. I do also expect them to get this variance, even though it’s not really ‘’minor”; most everyone just wants this built, and only a few storeys isnt worth derailing anything of substance.

Well that Walmart is pretty busy. I think it’s plausible the south mountain could use a Walmart, seeing as the James/Fennell one is now the only one for the entire mountain proper until you get to Stoney Creek Mountain or Ancaster’s, which are both pretty far by comparison. While I’d think...

Cmon, don’t leave us hanging on the source!

See the GO 2.0 Expansion thread for my response regarding that, but the Midtown ends up on these docs every time and doesn’t move forward either. Yes, if Mx had integrity with their projections and Corridor ID it would be better, and so on- but the map simply corresponds to where ‘new corridor’...

This is (purportedly) from Metrolinx’s 2051 RTP, the next iteration of the 2041 RTP, which followed the Big Move- or, it’s at least from a background study to it. If you look to the 2041 RTP you will see this fits in that format. This is only a fraction of what we will see, though as usual...

Precisely. It says right there these were studied options. It is nonetheless a big leak for the RTP to be effectively complete, and for options such as these to be included in the horizon. As @Northern Light implies, the full planning documents (RTP + Technical reports) are necessary to see the...

I’m very glad to see this exists, but we need the report. I will look, and I hope this user shares more.

In Hamilton the best you can hope for is that staff recognize what’s infront of them so no one else has to give the green light after an inordinate amount of time. That said, it’s not like Collecdev-Markee is headed by someone unacquainted with the pains of municipal process. And newcomers...

Link isn’t working for me- is this to be rental? Otherwise we won’t see it for a long time. I do like my Pane Del Sole.

Not to get too off-topic, because it very easily could… Generally speaking no, GO was and is only able to run trains during rush hour to Hamilton Centre. What I do wonder now, is if it’s cheaper to pay CP whatever price for miscellaneous time slots (that must exist if you watch the corridor)...
