    Toronto RBC WaterPark Place III | 140.2m | 30s | Oxford Properties | WZMH

    Exactly, if people want something to worry about I'd say that's a greater risk than someone driving into the PATH bridge. Or maybe worry about a dump truck full of ebola medical waste driving into the PATH bridge while the children and nuns from the local orphanage are crossing.

    Toronto RBC WaterPark Place III | 140.2m | 30s | Oxford Properties | WZMH

    Nothing can stop that level of stupidity. The walkway is more than tall enough for every type of vehicle to pass under easily. No barrier they could put up would protect against the level of negligence seen in the skyway accident. The only time I could see the potential for that type of...

    Toronto Ten York Street Condos | 224.02m | 65s | Tridel | Wallman Architects

    Currently people are moving into Ice 1 up to floor 29, units on floor 30 to the top are still under construction with units on the higher floors still mostly unfinished. I'm sure this will also be the case at 10 York as well. Most tall condos work this way, fill from the bottom while still...

    Toronto Cinema Tower | 142.64m | 43s | Daniels | Kirkor Architects

    I ate there a couple of weeks ago, the food was decent but expensive for what you got. It's more along the lines of the Financial District higher end restaurants, like a Jump, Reds or Vertical, not at the level of Canoe or Bymark. The night I was there it was busy. I may take clients there...

    Toronto RBC WaterPark Place III | 140.2m | 30s | Oxford Properties | WZMH

    Ice connection is underground AFAIK.

    Toronto RBC WaterPark Place III | 140.2m | 30s | Oxford Properties | WZMH

    Note the wide column in the photo above, it's wider so that the portion of the bridge under the gardener can be slid over to allow work to take place on the underside of the highway.

    Toronto TCHC Block 32 Development | ?m | 41s | TCHC | KPMB

    I can't agree more, I live in that neighbourhood and the last thing it feels like is suburban. The area is very busy, constant bike/foot traffic, in fact in some areas it would be better with wider sidewalks. As someone who grew up in Markham I know all about suburban.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    First time posting in this thread, but for what's its worth, here's my theory. Doug has it all set up to get Rob into rehab in the US, they fly to Chicago, get rejected at the airport and sent back to Canada. Arrange to fly to Hamilton, sneak Rob back into Toronto and hide him out in someone's...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    He's a rockstar! He's travelling the same road as Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrision, Sid Vicious, Shannon Hoon, Keith Moon, Janis Joplin and plenty of other rockstars over the decades.

    Toronto Ïce Condominiums at York Centre | 234.07m | 67s | Lanterra | a—A

    Aside from the swiss-cheese top hat the taller tower is topped out. On the shorter tower it seemed like nothing much happened for a while at the top of the building while they worked on the mechanicals as well as installing the framing to hold the final cladding at the top. I think that's the...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Maybe he was stumbling across the street to urinate on one of the pillars.

    Toronto 80 Bloor Street West | 263.4m | 78s | Krugarand | Arcadis

    Yep, the woman in the first render posted by AlbertC is thinking the same thing.

    Toronto Southcore Financial Centre & Delta Toronto | 159.71m | 45s | GWL | KPMB

    Yep, that's exactly why Rob Ford wants subways.

    Toronto Forma | 308m | 84s | Great Gulf | Gehry Partners

    I'm not sure how projects like this can be criticized from a sustainability point of view relative to the other options. The efficiency of land use, the sharing of a floor, ceiling, plus 2 or 3 walls and the impact on energy use, the high likelihood that residents of a downtown condo will be...

    Toronto Parade at Concord CityPlace | 127.4m | 44s | Concord Adex | P + S / IBI

    I can't wait for this to open, finally a decent dining choice in cityplace. Having spent many nights at South of Temperance, I'm sure it will be good.

    Toronto L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    High rise on the left is the Westin Prince Hotel. I'd guess somewhere around Don Mills and Sheppard.

    Toronto Sun Life Financial Tower & Harbour Plaza Residences | 236.51m | 67s | Menkes | Sweeny &Co

    I like the CN tower location in the rendering, is moving that part of the plan?

    It looks like that shot was taken on Wellington ;)

    Toronto King Blue by Greenland | 155.75m | 48s | Greenland | Arcadis

    They're currently excavating the parking lot next to the Le Germain on Mercer, does anyone know if this has anything to do with King Blue?
