This seams to be a common thing im noticing in Toronto buildings, they really transform depending on light, same thing with the L tower, some days the cladding looks really blue and other days no so much.

I dont see anything wrong with having a mix of big city buildings along with human scale buildings, cleaned up a bit people would be surprised how charming they could become.

Sorry it was a bad joke. i should have made it sound even more outrageous like - there gonna build a barn at the corner with an outhouse and a garage selling cheap smokes. This building is going ahead like planned, im excited to see it rise!

At worst the building is not going ahead and this corner will be a parking lot for the next few decades ( 1970 all over again) , at best there is a shadow issue ,one bloor will have to reduce its height to 40 stories to preserve the sunshine on bloor. This beast should be above grade, its...

Despite the bad traffic Eglinton i agree is a great street, it has alot to offer to many different types of people, forest hill part just west of yonge , then farther west is little jamaica / international market, and some empty lots here and there that will become condos close to the...

^^^ Yes true but if you are going southbound on alllen trying to get to eglinton anywhere near rush hour or holidays it takes forever, anywhere between eglinton and yorkdale mall on Allen road is ram packed, you move a few inches here and there. Yonge and Eglinton will become the new...

Shooting down to Yonge and Eglinton on underground light rail will be a breeze compared to the time consuming loud roaring crowded buses that i take now. I wonder about the future of this great city sometimes, like how can we possibly take in more cars on our roads then there already is...

This cant happen soon enough, This is i think the most important transit expansion to happen in Toronto in decades! i live at Eglinton west and i can assure you that the traffic on this street is some of the worst in the city. Its becoming like an all day rush hour gridlock. Not only is it a...

I realize that, what i mean to say is that its accepted now, people just dont think of it being any other way, thats my guess.

Roberto Fords is an intelligent con serve a tiv , He drove drunk, then got the munches and ate lRTs for lunch, while talking on the celly phone , giving the middle finger, stopping at a red light jumping out of car and rubbing of bike lanes with eraser. Drives away to avoid Gays and les he...

In the political world that happened eons ago, the memory of the public is short. What amalgamation?

I'm a Torontonian and i believe that we have something to learn from every city , Calgary, Vancouver , Montreal, ect... We are not too proud that we cant look at the great things other cities do. It helps us to improve our home. Psssst Calgary might also have something to learn from...

There's the met condos on college, they are really nice, but not super tall, great addition to the area tho .

The point isnt about being diverse, the point is what we do with the diversity that counts, creating something new out of old, like if Toronto grows and creates new things out of all the cultural influences it has here then it is something unique to this city and this city only, that is the...

^^ I see what your saying but i think it does'nt hurt to talk about our creativity as a city/nation just as long as we are able to move from thought to action. One good thing they said was that it cant be done from a small group of people imposing what Toronto is on a majority, like...

I think this next quote is important below "Kudos to Toronto for earning the impressive “multicultural/diverse” status; however, that doesn’t mean we should now rest. Our next advancing challenge is to earn the truly “intercultural” status. There are many positive economic and social outcomes...

As Toronto goes through this major construction boom, and expand our cultural buildings, there's still lots of work to be done. Toronto has an identity crisis, we are still searching for that vision and i think as a city we are on the verge of really pulling through but there's some things...

Really if the gta gets 100 thousand people moving here a year and everyone was trying to move to those residential communities you mention then you better believe those housing prices would sky rocket, wow , try 5 million and up for a house?

With 100 thousand people moving to the gta every year 500 thousand people moving here every 5 years theres simply no room in those residential areas to fit everyone. and when people coming from other countries move here they most likely dont know much about the city and its neighbourhoods...

Aga Khan museum is not far at all. You'll have the science center, Shops at don mills, and aga khan museum all pretty close to each other, i hope these developments influence this area to add more things to further give it character, maybe some art, distinctive signs that let you...
