MM35.23 - Union Station Enhancement Project, Package 1 - Amendment to Funding Agreement for Real Estate Services and Agreements - by Deputy Mayor Ausma Malik, seconded by Councillor Jamaal Myers https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2025.MM35.23

I walked by the main entrance to one of the towers on Lansdowne today and it was still surrounded by construction fencing as well. I could see through windows into some units and they looked pretty much done but clearly empty. Mid-rise building and townhouses also looked empty. All windows still...

Just wanted to let everyone know the design for this project is ahead of schedule. 🤣 https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2025/ex/bgrd/backgroundfile-260508.pdf

IMO the biggest issue is that there are several areas in the middle tier have very high demand and are way under-priced. $4.25/ hour to park in King/Spadina west of Spadina, Kensington Market, St. Lawrence east of Jarvis, on West Queen West (Bathurst-Dufferin), The Danforth (Broadview-Pape)...

Would they be getting ready to extend Downes Street west to Yonge?

So... they've already pushed it back by a year. Until recently they were saying the consultation would take place 2025/26 and construction would start once the lot was closed at the end of the World Cup (Q3 2026). Now they're saying late 2027.

Eglinton has been repaved between Dunfield Street and Mount Pleasant.

So... those big blocks on Front Street that have replaced the jersey barriers. As some have pointed out they were vandalized pretty quickly. The City then attempted to wash off the graffiti. This faded it, but it did not fully remove the graffiti. Today I was on Front and noticed that the cream...
