I wish they would fix the damn Yonge/College escalators which have been out of service for maintenance for at least 6 months.

I never quite understood why the screen was placed in front of a perfectly attractive facade and not in front of the mechanical above.

I thought he was having a great tanti.

I do hope that they rethink the bench seating which appears to be the same as in the revitalized Grange Park. I generally spend at least an hour every day sitting in a park but I have been defeated by the uncomfortable and bottom numbing seating at the Grange so I avoid it. Also, the backrests...

If I recall correctly, the original architectural rendering is lurking in the special collections at the reference library. It showed a pale golden limestone with a daring lilac coloured roof (unless my memory is playing wishful thinking on me)

Drilling equipment now on site.

Like the way we are cursing ourselves now for not erecting more mirrored glass buildings during that epidemic?

Kokyo is going to be sorely missed by the locals. It was a neighbourhood gem.

Three of the Edwardians have been fenced off. The fourth looks to be pretty much empty.

Be that as it may, there he was larger than life. The TTC ban was 9 years ago and Zanta has been MIA for quite some time. Perhaps he snuck past a newer employee or used an automatic entrance. Who knows. It was great to see him nonetheless.

Zanta, wearing trademark Santa hat and shorts, was on walkabout on the southbound Yonge subway this morning. He announced he was looking for any woman wearing spandex. If she was also wearing a Santa hat, that would be really hardcore.

There is a new LCBO going into College Park. Seems to me they had one there about a hundred years ago before Dollarama moved in.
