    Toronto The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    Sorry, I wasn't clear. The height increase is TBD since there were outstanding comments and Council has not made a decision yet. The "public" info are the response to comments on the AIC that were recently posted.

    Toronto The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    Thanks to @madknife 's tip, the status of the height increase is public. There were comments from various city departments on the proposal, in particular ECS (engineering), that needed to be addressed before they could sign off on the proposal. The comments appeared relatively minor so I expect...

    Toronto 160 Front West | 239.87m | 46s | Cadillac Fairview | AS + GG

    ^ That's a great angle to compare the height of 160 Front W vs. RBC and The Ritz.

    Only the north. The south bridge over the shipping channel will remain.

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    Who writes (and reviews) this? Beside “Days” it says to look at “What to expect”, yet no mention of any days there. How many people know that Millwood is known as the Leaside Bridge? Heck, the map says “Millwood Overpass Bridge”. Just say Millwood Road, which is actually signed on the DVP. And...

    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    Great, looking forward to my trip to San Francisco in September on Air Canada. Especially with our toddler and all of the gear that goes with them. Just yesterday they changed our seats (even though we paid for three in a row) as they changed the plane. Still three in a row, but they moved my...

    Bird Friendly Buildings in Toronto - I see dead birds everywhere

    Not a building, but I came across this mirror along the Leslie Spit. Nice to see bird-friendly designs being implemented in more situations.

    East Don Trail Project

    Though I agree with the sentiment, that bridge is likely in the section that is not currently open so they are trespassing.

    Canada Qualifies for 2022 World Cup.

    Funny enough, Chicago, 5th biggest city in NA, is not hosting any games. They weren't even in the final running!

    No argument there!

    Canada Qualifies for 2022 World Cup.

    The average temperature in Qatar in June/July is 36C. In December it's 21C. If it's played in June/July, players are going to suffer heat exhaustion and ultimately affect the games.

    Toronto The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    Still have a bit to go before it gets to the "concrete strip" (mechanical) levels on 2 Bloor West. The One is probably about the 11th level of 2BW.

    Broadview Extension Environmental Assessment (City of Toronto)

    This ramp is the least hairiest there is. The lane continues as the third NB lane so there is no merging required. Coming from the Don Roadway/Lake Shore is a bit more sketch with the lane ending quickly and the ramp from the Gardiner being elevated and on a curve.

    @Fresco remodels the Toronto waterfront

    The portion east of Jarvis will be shifted northwards adjacent to the rail corridor.

    Toronto Raptors

    From what I read (don't recall where) there are six cities including Toronto vying for two WNBA expansion teams.

    Toronto Pearson International Airport

    I haven't been following the hoopla around Pearson's delays. Are these occurring at departures, arrivals, or both?

    Toronto The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    If staff haven't prepared a recommendation report for the June 29th TEYCC meeting, their won't be a decision on the height increase until January 2023 at the earliest.

    Ikea

    I find them overrated. I’ll settle for the cheap hot dogs and soft serve ice cream.

    Toronto 155 St Dennis | 184.8m | 56s | Cityzen | Hariri Pontarini

    I am also curious as to what happens here. Donalda, you're next! (A continuous East Don Trail from the Forks of the Don to Steeles Ave is my dream).
