Most important renovation would be to remove Ted Rogers' statue and put it by their corporate offices in Brampton In its place have statues of: 1. Robbie Alomar with both hands up - i.e. Home Run off Dennis Eckersley 2. Joe Carter jumping - i.e. Rounding Third after his World Series Winning...

Great shot... glad that they've replaced the dead trees in front too.

hallelujah!!!!! And so it begins...

Great shot Kotsy... haven't seen many from this viewpoint. :)

Wondering if an express routing of a Bramalea-Unionville SmartTrack train could eventually become a nice little technology corridor shuttle between Kitchener <--> Toronto <--> Markham.

Walking through the York Concourse yesterday evening and noticed some kind of work for a wrapped video board around one of the pillars.

You guys have selective reading... I agreed that the wayfinding is lacking and adding an airplane logo would definitely be helpful. However the name UP Express is actually pretty good IMO.

There is zero, repeat ZERO chance in the 2015 that someone coming to Toronto for work or play from 90% of the world is doing so without doing any research about attractions and transit/mobility. In fact most would use this crazy new-fangled website called Google to do that research in lieu of...

^^^ Ha ha indeed... the very very worst.

Kuala Lumpur Oslo Tokyo Stockholm Seoul Rome Bangkok Moscow Kansai Quite a bottom of the barrel list of cities eh?

While there are definite improvements that can be made in wayfinding and other signage the name itself is hardly an issue. Do you know what cities operate these services? KLIA Ekspres Flytoget N'EX Arlanda Express A'Rex Express Leonardo Express Suvarnabhumi Rail Link Aeroexpress Haruka

I did look at Miscreant's pics before posting and I really don't have any issue with their placement tbh. The lettering is not meant to be viewed from a single angle anyway or as the singular identifier of the station. If you're walking south on University, York, and Bay the signage is clear...

^^ Huh? TotoTo, you do realize the purpose of the large sign is so people can see it from a distance... if you cross over to the north side of Front St... or walk up Bay and/or University to understand the purpose. smh.

Worthless?! Seems pretty smart to my simple mind to protect transit ROWs alongside new highway contruction. There was a time when anything north of Eglinton was "suburban fringe". I remember when as a kid we moved to Scarborough to the "suburban fringe" of McCowan & Steeles. Both McCowan and...

That's a million dollar view... very jealous!

agreed. But that's not the plan. As part of the 427 north extension the transitway ROW will be protected all the way up to Major Mackenzie. "The Recommended Alternative includes a transportation corridor consisting of a highway and transitway, as well as associated works and support...

Pretty much anywhere outside Toronto proper the driving gets progressively worse as the roads get wider and the signal intervals get longer. Living in Markham I can say that I doubt that anyplace is worse than here... driving at night without lights, not indicating turns, making lefts on red...

Shot of the trees on the northside of Front St. https://twitter.com/kazalikhan/status/601057796117827584

Was actually referencing the 4 vs. 8 in the address. I've heard numerous times that 4 sounds like death vs. 8 which apparently sounds like wealth in Mandarin/Cantonese. I agree with your rationale AG. Maybe it's just coincidence but changing of 4s to 8s has happened so many times in condo...
