Welcome to page 900! It's taken just over 11 years to get to this point. How many more before this project sees completion?

I think Toronto could benefit from using Chicanes on our streets to help with traffic calming. The benefits are numerous - including more green space. https://www.sfbetterstreets.org/find-project-types/pedestrian-safety-and-traffic-calming/traffic-calming-overview/chicanes/

Toronto strikes again! Street pole installed in downtown bike lane

I want to like these renders more than I do. Whilst I agree that this bold architectural facade is a welcome shift from the usual bland iterative design we're so used to, but there's something about the awkward proportions that look heavy and somewhat unrefined.

I kinda love these guys. How can we get them to Toronto? Just a minute

Guess I'm walking today... What's going on around St Clair West? Does this happen often?

Ugh, yet another furniture store. I suppose at least it's not a cannabis store. This neighbourhood could have really benefited from a couple of restaurants or grocer.

I wonder what the condo fees are? :eek:

Can anyone help me understand what the purpose of the trench is?

What is it that upsets you about the design? Personally, I think it's a great addition to the area.

I think I just did a little vomit in my mouth.
