There are other lists that have multiple US cities above Toronto. This list doesn't even seem to have Los Angeles? Regardless, like i said, there are options and traffic is a factor in every city.
"this city is not it" because of a little rush hour traffic? what a dumb post. some people have no idea. every city on the continent has the same thing. 90% of those cars are choosing to sit in that traffic. there are options. our commuter rail is top notch
I concede it's not a hellscape as some make it out to be, but it's mainly due to planning ie parks and community centre. i think any other competent developer would have done leagues better than Concord
edit - and of course the prime location
Do we know if there is going to be signage on the building saying St Lawrence Market? would help to give it more character esp. if they use font inspired by the old sign
random thought i've never understood the appeal of yonge-bloor. its one of my least favorite places in the city. ugly architecture, lack of greenery, little in terms of interesting shops, the most pretentious people, 🤷♂️
