Just imagine when the big bad wolf (wind) huffs, puffs and blows the tin cladding off!

That spandrel glass is absolutely painful and bad. They seriously couldnt use a different shade? Overall the project looks good, but that spandrel seriously detracts from it.

Wow this looks really damn good, and deep and Scarborough too. That's impressive!

I'm looking forward to the hefty fare increase we're going to have next year to offset this and the nice hefty pay increase that operators will be getting over the next 3 years.

Well it's definitely not related to Phase 2 of the development since Menkes hasnt even started selling here, and it cant be for a sales office because a crane wouldnt be needed and Menkes would likely use one of their vacant units in Phase 1 for that.

The neighborhood raise some very valid concerns; a key one being that there's literally only 2 ways to get in and out of the neighborhood and there's literally virtually 0 amenities in the area. If there happens to be an emergency in the area, i'd love to see how emergency services would...

Because this city did an abject piss pour job and failed at planning this mess of a neighborhood from the start, and had 0 foresight to create one. They are "studying" how to improve services in the area, but any potential community would be decades away. Metrolinx could include a provision for...

Ughh again, it's been decades that this land has sat vacant, and they're coming up with something arguably worse than the previous proposal? What a joke.

I hear where you're coming from, growing up in South Etobicoke it's like you have to travel backwards first if your destination is downtown. Even once Park Lawn GO comes online, if you live west of Islington it would be quicker to take the bus up to Kipling or Islington, compared to taking the...

Yup according those on Twitter and Reddit; we'd need all the housing we can get and it doesn't matter how the housing looks, if the spaces are actually livable, if the developer is cattle-hearding people into a building, if there's only 1 elevator in a building, etc.. This subset of the market...

52 storeys of soul-sucking uninspired drab, we're all just jumping for joy i'm sure.

Stupid is as stupid does right? Let's remember these are the same fools who were blocking this project for decades until Metrolinx finally expropriated. The expropriation should've comes many years ago but I digress.

Finch West vehicles wont be coupled, but they will be on the Crosstown.

With the way Metrolinx finds ways to take 10-15 years to build GO stations, I wouldnt expect to see any Lakeview station built until 2035 at the earliest. More realistically 2040.

I hope they plan on using the finest quality gold on that asphalt to make that $75 million/km go far. Maybe they're planning on also giving us some diamond encrusted railings as well with that kind of insane spending.

The province set a deadline (cant remember the exact date off the top of my head but it was earlier this year) for a provision to be put in place for Cummer station, which would have required the city to pony up money that they dont have to build/protect for the station. Since the deadline has...

I had a feeling it was too good to be true.

That's correct, there are no infill stations that are planned or that can be built in the scope of the Ontario Line. There were no provisions put in place for this anywhere (that includes around Strachan or the Distillery area). It's also not possible to build infill stations on the Scarborough...

I really hope they dont plan on digging this up again....

After what we've seen from this clown developer over at West Block and Central Condos more recently, I wouldn't hold your breath.
