    535 Yonge Street

    Not sure if this deserves its own thread, but I just noticed yesterday that 535 Yonge Street has been sold. There were a couple workers inside and a small "sold" sign on the window. Was in a hurry so I couldn't get a good look at what was going on but it seemed like early days and not much...

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    Oh man, if it is that'll be such a letdown. I guess there's a big demand for it, but with the Foot Locker, the Adidas Store, Champs, and whatever that store that is going on the northwest side of Yonge/Dundas (Nike?) it just seems like the sports store thing is covered. Oh well! I'll continue...

    Toronto Eaton Centre

    Still no indication what the mystery store is at Yonge & Dundas? It HAS to be Apple, right? Who else would be this secretive for so long?

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Not sure where to post this, but I've noticed that one of my huge pet peeves has been fixed: The colour of the lights on the Line 1 subway maps! I always maintained that they had it backwards, (green where you'd been, red where you're going) and grumbled about it, tweeted, wrote emails, and I...

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    I don't take the TTC a whole lot (I live downtown so I try to walk) but this morning I had to get on at College Station. One Presto reader was red and unusable, while the other was completely shut off. I tried waiting in line for a bit and then after watching a few people try to tap and then...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Could this just be for the opening of 407 East? I don't know much about it but I know that's happening tomorrow, right?

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    I live at College Station and last night I got on the subway and went south, around the Union loop and got off at Osgoode to go to the Scotiabank Theatre. If I'm going to Yorkdale I also go south around the loop rather than north to bloor, transfer to Line 2 west to St. George, transfer to Line...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Sorry, I think there's been a misunderstanding. I definitely didn't think you were ordering anyone to do anything. It's just the way it comes across, and/or the way I interpret what you write, that seems very finger-waggy. Which I didn't agree with especially considering, like you said...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I'm mostly a lurker here, but I enjoy reading all of the posts. Although I find that whenever I see a post from you, Kat_YYZ, it tends to be of the finger wagging, tsk-tsking everyone else's behaviour, to which I think, choose your battles. There have been some posts that genuinely could be...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I'm sure the 911 operators that answered calls from the multiple domestic disputes at the residence could answer what constitutes basic decency. Or perhaps Renata herself? Or the men that Rob offered her up sexually too? Come down off your high horse.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    They issued the press release because of the untrue rumour that Rob had died. He's just about to die, not dead. You didn't ask the right question.

    Toronto Union Pearson Express | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | MMM Group Limited

    I guess we don't know for sure, but since there's a lot of detail about the cash fare and the stops within the city, and zero mention of Presto price from Union to Pearson (and vice-versa) I'm guessing you're right that it will remain at $19.00. Which I think is a mistake. Enough people...

    1233 Queen East | ?m | 8s

    YES! I've often talked about this, written the TTC about it and even posted on this forum about it where I was called a liar so I stopped trying. It's ridiculous and backwards and confusing but apparently not everyone agrees with me.

    Toronto Union Pearson Express | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | MMM Group Limited

    As someone who grew up in Kingston I can also verify that we don't fly out of the Kingston airport. However, I also don't agree that everyone takes Via and UPX to the airport now. They still drive. My mom and her friends just went on vacation and they carpooled to the airport. Cheaper than...

    Toronto Union Pearson Express | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | MMM Group Limited

    As someone who lives pretty much on top of College Station, I can say that I don't save that much time taking UPX. I don't have a Metropass so I have to pay my token either way and once i'm on the subway I might as well just continue to the 192 Rocket. I have to transfer at Bloor or...

    How much does your parking spot cost?

    At Encore/The Met at Yonge/Carlton I believe our spaces were $40k (I didn't get one).

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Exactly. I give directions to Yonge/College and nobody is going to get confused and go to Yonge/Steeles because they both have Yonge in the name. Or alternately, saying I live in the "Garden District" tells you nothing. You'd be like, "Where???" and I would clarify with corner of Yonge/College.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Why can't we just name them by the major cross streets and be done? When you are giving directions it's just Bathurst (on Line 2 or on Line 5). Done. I hate to agree with them, (since they sounded so clueless in those quotes) but I've lived at Yonge/College for 7 years (and...
