The stabby vibes at Yonge and Bloor are from blistering winter winds to the face. I recall the wind study for The One modelling 0.1% conditions (meaning rare but not unrealistic) where pedestrians could face 80km/h winds on the south east street corner. Shout out to our dedicated photographers...

It’s interesting you put owns in quotations, I too don’t really understand the ownership. I do know that in many disputes the federal body trumps the provincial and municipals. For example, the CN railyard in Milton being objected by the municipality but moving forward anyway. I wouldn’t be...

That concourse photo looks stunning, you could easily convince me that is a rendering. At a glance, every photo impresses and gives me hope for our other new projects coming down the pipeline!

Publicly available documents would indicate 6 escalators between street and platform. Here's hoping they have little downtime.

It’s the little details from ML that anger me most. They could have chosen any image of the station but they decided to copy & paste a highly technical one with no legend or description. With so little information about the station improvements and the oil pipeline highlighted in the image...

Can I get a review relative to other good sub sandwiches like Firehouse? Looks like lower level between Bay and York concourse, someone else can probably confirm.

Ah, in that case we are in agreement.

Retrofitting anything under here would be unnecessarily expensive when there is so much underutilized space on the south side (eg. every surface parking lot in Exhibition). Adding more north/south pedestrian access is tricky considering you’ll need to go over or under the rail corridor in...

A look at the ground level work, July 4th (🤠 🦅 🇺🇸)

Couple shots from yesterday and today. @ProjectEnd informed me this is being used to remove the crane up on the roof. Yesterday: Single lane closure on Adelaide last night to get things assembled then this today:

Big machine being erected here, not sure what it is exactly. EDIT: redacted, photos moved to EQ bank thread in this post

Referencing a Toronto soil map, I noticed that the investigation is being performed near the border of two distinct soil deposits. The hashed area denotes "Peel ponds; shallow-water deposits: sand" while the green area denotes "Young tills: clayey silt till and sandy silt till." I know little...

There’s also an unused shoulder lane both directions. Easy win for bus priority!

I have seen work in bits and pieces. I haven’t travelled the whole length of the park in a while but I’ve never noticed more than a few guys working on it. Anyone know if this work is keeping up with its schedule? Is the raised cycle track really expected in September?

That is true for the intercity / regional train networks, where there are many stops also outside Warsaw. The particular service in that schedule is a shorter line across town to the airport, similar distance to Danforth GO through Union to Pearson. They don’t tack on Warsaw to the name of...

I passed by last night. Seems to be obstructed by the grassy knoll on the west edge of the park, next to Scott St.

Great update! One note, the excavation at Sammon Ave is for a track crossover section and likely an access shaft. It’s not exactly maintenance facilities for Pape station.

Any idea why it is being enclosed? Residential proximity?

It’s less frequent that I see traffic cops in this intersection than up at King and Jarvis. I feel like it’s safe to assume this car wasn’t directed through by police considering it managed to crash seconds afterwards. Personally, I never walk along Jarvis anywhere south of Queen, it’s an...
