When will it end for this area? Crazy. And for the recent City of Toronto Ward boundary review, Planning says this ward will only gain 6 thousand residents between now and 2030? More like 25 thousand. And DelDuca still wants a Go station in the middle of nowhere, and not here. This area is...

I think it's generally accepted that Queen's Quay and Lake Shore is difficult for even experienced drivers to navigate. Especially at Bathurst. Form a planning perspective and a Public Works perspective, I think there are issues here, not seen anywhere else in the City.

So the three storefront buildings to the west are going to stay? Bizarre, the east-side of the building further west was almost anticipating something going up right beside it.

Why might that be? It's pretty clear to me.. Many people who are looking to move, who work downtown, likely wouldn't choose Humber Bay precisely because there is no rapid transit to get downtown. This would likely happen in the east end too. Close highway access and no rapid transit would...

I'm curious, where have we seen that in Toronto in the past?

If this is being done in phases, should Humber Bay Shores not get priority then since the density is already there? I mean, in an imaginary world, yes, you would want the transit in place first, but that hasn't happened and the city has systemically downplayed their responsibility for transit...

Yes, but it would take much longer to use those parallel roads if the Allen was closed, since all the current traffic on the Allen would be forced to those streets?? Also, who uses the same road everyday in the age of Waze.

Why not "Sorbara Station'?

How does the average shopper afford Nordstrom or Saks? I thought Nordstrom was supposed to be more reasonable but a shirt is still 200$. Bizarre to me... Hudson Bay is the "discount" banner at Sherway lol.

I agree with you. But there is still a contingent of the population that fit within the description I gave. Cloverdale is a nice spot to stop in, never too busy, and like you said, you can get all the basics here. I used to live in the area, and would make frequent stops on my way home from...

The older folks that shop here are from the generation that bought houses in this area for 100k and are now valued at over 10-15 times that amount today. Many of them are driving nice cars.

I think people are posting comparisons of the regions so as to justify which area should be prioritized for rapid transit based on factual data. I hardly see that as an attack or Fordian. In fact, your position comes off as more straw-man fallacy-like, painting those of us presenting why we...

Humber Bay Shores already exceed that number, with many more to come once the Christie lands get started. But again, nothing from Metrolinx.

I think Galloway comes off as very holier-than-thou, self-involved. Definitely not progressive in the true sense of the word (i.e., labour). A little too self-involved.

It is a lot less expensive to run suburban campuses, all while gathering about the same in tuition and grants, so in terms of costs it makes sense. I also don't think UTM or UTS have had a negative effect on UofT's prestige.

I don't understand the notion of the product being covered? What will the storefronts be? Just a counter and nothing else? Will you have to know what you want before you get there?

I mean... using Twitter to gage local politics? Ford's supporters are hardly Twitter users.

People want shiny, new, comfortable places to shop. CF has done that here. The new food court still has high ceilings, with natural light coming in, unlike many major malls in the GTA (e.g., Yorkdale or Square One). I must say I prefer a clean-looking food court, than an old one that has a...

Unfortunate that it will be in the (relatively) east-end as there are more Franco-Ontarien.nes in the west part of the GTA, and the University is supposed to serve French speaking Ontarian's from as far as Windsor and London. Would have preferred Ontario Place, or even the First Capital...

It's unfortunate none of the spots got occupied by a dinner/drink type-restaurant establishment. You have to walk either to the Firkin (about 10 minutes) or west to Mimico (10/15 minutes) for anything like that. I wonder if Sunset Grill will use the space to the North there that was initially...
