    Toronto Telus House - 25 York Street | 136.24m | 30s | Menkes | Sweeny &Co

    No, not Helvetica at all. I think it's FF DIN: .

    UT Article in the Star: Edifice complex unites urbanites

    Yeah, that's called withdrawal. UT is just too crackalicious!

    Lisa Rochon: Toronto Street Furniture (Globe & Mail)

    Seriously. Why not just a regular, barrel-type bin with a large hole on top? This one is hilarious.

    Toronto Bloor Street Revitalization | ?m | ?s | Bloor-Yorkville BIA | architectsAlliance

    So exciting! Looks like the green leaves will turn yellow shortly -- what a great addition of colour to the streetscape that'll be.

    Hazel McCallion on Hot Seat

    If they are sitting on a sofa, she must be sitting on his lap.

    is racism common in Toronto?

    Man, that is just par for the course when it comes to media depictions of visible minorities in North America. If they get on the screen at all, it's usually only to serve as a contrasting background for the white people in the lead roles.

    "Save Local TV" vs. "Stop the TV Tax" Campaigns

    Seriously. You can get better quality HD signal over the air than through the cable sometimes. And what isn't broadcast you can likely stream over the internet.

    bwahahaha Well, how many mayors do you know have two right hands?

    Hazel McCallion on Hot Seat

    Let me lament once more the sorry state of the Mississauga News. It really doesn't help that there's no real media presence out here to keep Hazel honest. What we've got is not much better than a Pennysaver -- for a city this size, it's just embarrassing.

    Dead/Decaying Malls of Greater Toronto

    There's a passport office in there too.

    I think you're missing doady's sarcasm here. :)

    Why the Hate for Mississauga?

    To me, it's home. I like it here. That's not to say I wouldn't like living in the big city -- I have, and I did, and I may even do so again one day -- but for the moment, I'm not going anywhere. Though one thing I REALLY hate about Mississauga is the Mississauga News. A city of 700K+, one of...

    smooth ceilings ! Are they worth it ?

    My house has a popcorn ceiling. If you ever have to repair it, trying to recreate the popcorn effect to blend in with the rest of the ceiling is a REAL pain.

    Toronto One Bloor East | 257.24m | 76s | Great Gulf | Hariri Pontarini

    I would love a Takashimaya! Actually, I would settle for just their lower-level food court/market. It is truly a thing to behold.

    Mississauga Absolute World | 169.77m | 56s | Cityzen | MAD architects

    Forget the urban context -- if this project looked like another commie block there wouldn't be any talk of "what a shame" or "he don't love you like I could, baby." What's next, "if I can't have you, no one can?" :p

    Mississauga Absolute World | 169.77m | 56s | Cityzen | MAD architects

    Are you kidding me? Everyone here is excited about this building. My mom is excited by this building. You really think you can drop 50+ storey towers into any city on earth (let alone ones shaped like Marilyn!) and have nobody notice? Well there you go. Yes, there have been lots of changes...

    Mississauga Absolute World | 169.77m | 56s | Cityzen | MAD architects

    Come on. This is not a thing to be sad about! It's not like Mississauga is actively preventing Toronto from building its own collection of world-class towers. If none are being built in Toronto, whose fault is that really? The idea that Mississauga is "undeserving" of these buildings is...

    Toronto Maple Leaf Square | 185.92m | 54s | Lanterra | KPMB

    Holy crap, that screen really is sharp! I wonder if they'll show Toronto FC games on it too.
