this is the side that's facing bay/adelaide site right? beside trump tower? if so, this stinks! i like the current plaza entrance to the building!!

ugh so ugly... but then again, jack diamond did this right? he should be banned from the city i swear.

speaking of streetcars, how long have they had the new automated stop announcements and that electronic stop display marquee board on ttc streetcars? i was on a queen st streetcar tonight and they had stop announcements like the subways "Next Stop, University Ave. Osgoode Subway Station" and the...

it's claiming to be the biggest condominium launch of 2008? lol they're pretty presumptuous

interesting. good to know they're making it more pedestrian friendly... especially with the lakeshore/york intersection design. those islands are scary and cars go crazy around that turn. this is one of the most important streets for downtown-waterfront connection... beautifying and...

S+P is the only good one. the other two are very unthoughtful imo. i feel a bit nimbyish with this expansion... philosopher's walk is one of my favorite places in the city and i love it dearly as a former trinity college student/resident. it's so nice there, i wish the law school wouldn't...

they ARE awfully boxy for being "not boxes" lol

they really need to just slow down lakeshore with some rightious red lights and perhaps even narrowing. it's such a nightmare to cross it simply cuz it's like crossing a highway... doesn't feel like a city street downtown. they already have gardiner to cross east-west so fast, i suppose they...

looks like a lot more seats on that model than what we currently have.. that "backroom" looks like it's 4-seat-per-row all the way through!

really awesome construction photos from that link, thx. seems as tho the reno was only designed from the inside... the inside is looking really awesome. it's gonna look reeeally great in there when it's done it looks like... the museum experience will be great. but the outside, yuck, it's...

the base looks so much better.. and 4 levels of retail, that sounds like quite a lot. it'd be cool to have a mini-shopping-center there... a good stop point between dundas and bloor.

the slides are on the website at http://www.toronto.ca/union_station/revitalization.htm . The last slide is pretty interesting with the side shot. overall i think the plan is great... it definitely makes the station less confusing in my opinion. and really, a state of good repair is what we...

i'd rather they do one down at queens quay east like near the loblaws down there... bring more ppl to that waterfront area

oooh! only future shop lol i thought it mighta been too good to be true.. sorry for the confusion!

it's kinda hard to swallow that they're gonna open next thursday... just cuz it's been what it is. i wonder if they're gonna have all the decor inside done.

i nominate Queens Quay between Yonge and Parliament. Was reminiscing when I visited Singapore and I remember this district called Clarke Quay. it was so lively and so fun there... i think queens quay can turn into something like that.

hope someone won't mind clarifying... but is this the island thing in front of jack astor's?

unfortunately, most of my friends either think the building is incredibly ugly or they didn't know it's new. and i think its exterior is horrible too.

that looks amazing! so this is... 2010? or further?

Toronto doesn't use quality materials most of the time yes, but Toronto definitely doesn't use quality design. It's not an 'industrial look' they were going for anyway... it just turned out so fugly and now we say it's industrial.
