Not the city. The University. The decision was made by the "Landmark Committee" of UofT, which is made up of faculty, students, and volunteers: http://www.updc.utoronto.ca/Assets/...ning/Featured+Projects/landmark-committee.pdf Edit: That committee may have just been the one that came up with...

Yeah I'm disappointed that DTAH didn't get it. I wouldn't be surprised if they chose the KPMB one because it had a cheaper price tag

Size doesn't matter!

I am fully aware that construction has already started, but a bunch of the tasks can't start until vacancy. From what I've heard from people working on the project, falsework needs to be set up on the field in order to install the roofing, which definitely cannot begin until they're done...

Exactly. It's not like BMO field will be the ideal field for the Argos, but it is at least significantly better than the dome ever was. Anyhow, in other news: I think the TFC might have just made the playoffs (?), which means they won't vacate the field for a bit longer. It's very likely...

Much more similar to the Yonge line. The constant theme across the stations will be things like signage, finish materials, the architectural style, and wayfinding.

I wouldn't imagine tendering it separately would work well. It's much easier to have one consortium develop the whole thing to avoid conflicts, confusion, errors, etc. Also less mobilization costs and overhead. Also, I worked in the Crosslinx Transit Solutions consortium before tender closed...
