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

    Children I have an adorable Little Girl living downtown in a 2-bedroom less than 600 square feet and she has her own room, which is about 10x10 and it's plenty for what she needs. I also know a couple in the same building who have 3 kids in less than 400 square feet. To be honest I don't...

    Comparing Prices in Toronto to Other Cities

    Really? The last time I was there a few years ago that was not the case by a long shot.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Pretty accurate observation... ...I've even seen this type of behaviour personally and the other thing I'll add to your comment is that when you confront a righty about their double standards and hypocrisy, then invariable get angry, begin to pontificate nonsense about everything that has...

    Toronto Forma | 308m | 84s | Great Gulf | Gehry Partners

    Really? Maybe Toronto doesn't have as much heritage as it could/should is precisely due to attitudes like that.

    Toronto Union Park | 303.26m | 58s | Oxford Properties | Pelli Clarke Pelli

    From the TTC: "The TTC’s proposed operating budget for 2011 is $1.4 billion (up $66 million from 2010) and forecasts an all-time record high of 483 million rides".

    Church & Isabella - southeast corner ( possible development site )

    Wellesley Animal Hospital I'm not crazy about posting an unrelated comment, but since 3 posters have expressed concern over losing their vet (and I too being a proud owner myself so I understand), maybe you'll forgive me this one time... ...if the day ever comes, please try the Wellesley...

    Toronto Five St Joseph | 160.93m | 48s | Five St. Joseph | Hariri Pontarini

    The building is having the garage sealed...unlike many buildings constructed today it extends northward under what is the front lawn, and you're quite right that while it's a typical 60's 'slab' of the era, it's 'front lawn' so to speak is very much what distinguishes it from the 'Towers in the...

    Toronto Pinnacle One Yonge | 345.5m | 105s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    Suburban house or Victorian house? Are you linking a 'suburban' home with a Victorian home? Do you 'really' see these as the same?:confused: Just curious, b/c they are miles apart. I don't want to jump to conclusions, so I'm asking, but it seems like that's what you're saying in the above...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    You really hit the nail on the head here...most simply have no clue nor the inclination to learn about the real truths behind the issues, and the right love that...they can exploit their ignorance, whether rich or poor! During the last election I did some door-to-door...I still recall folks in...

    Toronto Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    I think he was referring to how our system is not as extensive as it could be, not the ridership numbers.

    Toronto L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    Well done Mikey...I'm a previously prolific poster (older forum), but your refreshing perspective AND clever manner of integrating the topic into your post warrants both acknowledgement and a welcome to the forum! :)

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Educate us please I notice you more often than not tend to speak in generalities when addressing matters of personal opinion... ...care to be a bit more 'explicit' when doing so from now on?

    Toronto One Bloor East | 257.24m | 76s | Great Gulf | Hariri Pontarini

    More floors? 81S? Did I miss something...I thought I've been following pretty closely...I don't recall anyone saying anything about 'another' height/floor increase...?????:confused:

    Toronto Massey Tower Condos | 206.95m | 60s | MOD Developments | Hariri Pontarini

    So True Was past here just yesterday and my thoughts exactly! This was easily the best new addition to the temporary pedestrian enhancements of Yonge from Gerrard to Queen.

    The province of Toronto?

    Couple more questions... ...what's a "Traditional POV"? And doesn't clean air and less congestion benefit BOTH those living within and without Toronto's boundaries?

    The province of Toronto?

    Huh? A few points/questions...first...how can you argue that you CAN'T determine Toronto's contribution to the rest of the province (cause utility can't reasonably be measured), yet you then go on to say that Ontarian's "...have just given the city of Toronto $8.4B for a transit project..."...

    "TTC Facts"

    Problem with quoting it in this way is most people probably wont take the time to read through the TTC annual report...they'll just hear the $44.50 figure...it's a reflection of the 30 second soundbite world... ...if their intentions were honourable, they could've easily written what the wage...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Seems to me that the 'real' problem is the 'form' of suburbia itself...low density development with car oriented design will 'always' cause us these problems...it's like were trying to fit a square peg into a round hole...we are the authors of our own misery by 'accepting' this form and then...
