If you drove those cars as a chauffeur, then maybe you would!

Not looking forward to see Concord Sty, I mean Sky, rising out of the ground.

This site plan looks like the crown of 160 Front.

According to developer's marketing, it's probably a luxe 😅

Cameras in 2007 weren't as good as the ones we have now. That may be contributing to the grimy look in the street view?

This can be a public pool. I am calling it Sugar Pool.

Or they could call it Durham College Eglinton station. Proximity isn't relevant for Metrolinx.

1) Likely would have happened in any case 2) Is not new. Has been happening since TTC came into existence 3) Isn't unavailability of crew the main reason for that?

Hmm... using that logic, I would encourage Toronto to generate its own electricity, have its own airport, get timber from its own land, find its own oil and gas, exploit its own natural resources, have its own cottage country, fund its subway construction on its own. PS - People in Toronto own...

Loved the cloudless deep blue skies in the last few photos.

At least they could have shown Ontario line in one colour on that map. A passenger doesn't care what portion of the line is underground and what portion is elevated. Science Centre station seems even north of Downsview station on Line 1 in that map. Of course, Line 1 extension built half a...

If GO can cover Barrie to Union in less than one hour, that gives it an average speed of about 100 km/hr. That sounds unrealistic even for an express service. I remember long back seeing the new proposed times for every route in this thread. It will be great to get our hands on that again...

Is it me or is this ceiling actually very low?

I am referring to the average speeds that include stopping time. EMUs can accelerate fast and achieve high average speed without high top speed. Also, dwell times make a difference. An average speed of 80-90 km/hr including stops would be a good target. That sounds fast to me but I don't...

These types of trips are usually off peak or counter peak and of course these are always a fraction of peak demand. Even if GO is able to absorb all of such potential off peak demand, that will still be far from enough to triple the ridership. The question is how much of peak demand GO is...

I am thinking as a devil's advocate for a moment. Will increase in services be enough to increase ridership by that magnitude? It's not like GO trains are packed and people are not using it because there is no space for more riders. Many who want to use GO for their office commute are already...

30 more storeys will take close to 400 meters high. Sounds unrealistic.

Yes, I have. Still not a fan of it.

Which is a good thing. I don't want this building to represent Toronto in supertall category.

In BC, they have banned the practice of skipping floor numbers for that very reason. People believing in these things don't realize that the floor you think is the 5th floor is actually 4th floor and so on. In the building where I lived for some time, not only the floor ending at 4 and 13 were...
