"Subway/RT map is not to scale"

haha, dont mind me. i work in the sustainable building field, operating cost is always in my mind

interesting that it has a heating system to melt the snow, i thought about that too. sometimes i wonder if the extra aesthetic features are worth the extra cost to maintain. i would like to know how much money is spent each year for the heating system at the Wells Fargo Center

Both very insightful points. I would surely hope the architectural firm has considered this design challenge. For the first point, one thing I can think of to reduce cleaning on the windows is to apply a titanium dioxide window film that claims to be self-cleaning...

would be nice for a dance studio or something. similar to the edithvale community centre at yonge and finch west.

why couldn't they make 1 full basketball court, instead 2 half courts?

bland. the colour treatment on the roof mech is not going to save the lack of intriguing design and contrast the tower needs. the podium looks okay, but it wont be seen when driving along 401.

how do these pole wrap prevent ppl from taping/gluing posters over the wrap?

My old fav was Oh Geul Boh Geul on Yonge south of Finch, until I found my new fav Cho Won family style restaurant at Yonge + Drewry (Cummer).

Just want to chime in on this discuss about buying a condo, i had the same thoughts about buying about 1.5 yrs ago. i too was looking long term, so for me I want to buy a 2 or 2+ bedroom unit that i can grow into. 1 or 1+ bedroom unit is too small, and there are too many of them in the market to...

Very good summary of the problems at Yonge-Sheppard. I live at Yonge-Finch and take the 401 going west every morning. I'm just glad I'm not going 401 east using that left turn lane. If only there was space to building a fly-over left turn ramp after going under the 401 overpass. For me, when...

Hi brockm, I remember you mentioned you are currently renting some time ago. So I would presume you are renting from "Joe and Jane" who purchased the property. By CMHC making it affordable for homebuyers, then in turn I would think that would have some impact in keeping rental prices more...

i dont live downtown, can someone take a picture of the new pole being wrapped? thanks!

Eug, are you sure your carbon filtration system will remove hardness from your water? Source: http://www.apswater.com/article.asp?id=24&title=Activated+Carbon+Filtration

And the people downtown Toronto complaining about not having enough parkland to raise their kids. Oh the irony. I would hope for a Bier Markt, like the one they added at Shops at Don Mills.

i was just responding to the fact majority of it being condos. since market is hot, ppl with less desirable units think they can sell quickly too and test the market. but they take longer to sell, that's why they linger on mls a lot longer and seems like there are a lot condos for sell. good...

news from one week ago would hardly be felt on mls. the area you are searching has a lot of condos, but if you look carefully, a lot of them are the less desirable units (low level, bad view, possibly open to elevator). The yonge-finch/sheppard area is known for having good schools (mckee, earl...

Yes, thank you Interested, I think you picked up my undertone in my comment. The economy would be worse off overall while it may benefit some in the short run. But for those who have been waiting in the sidelines to buy for the past 2 years, prepare to wait another 2 years. By that time, it...

Let's get back to the "bubble": http://www.thestar.com/business/article/1214209--record-low-interest-rates-to-remain-into-2014-cibc-says?bn=1 I just hope it'll last till 2015 when I renew my mortgage..
