The RL was just phase 1 of a larger project. No reason the government couldn't have continued with it and proceeded immediately to phase 2.

This is becoming quite the addition to the downtown core. Great location too.

That's fair, however there will be a cost/inconvenience associated with downtown expansion at any point - unless it's believed this is the last downtown subway expansion that should be happening.

It may not be connected at the start, but there's nothing stopping that in the future.

That's fair. For me, Yonge Line Relief (which was the original goal of the line) is paramount, making a northern terminus at Don Mills a priority.

While I'm a fan of westward expansion (and the two stations on King), he does have a point. I would've used those funds to ensure the first phase went to Sheppard before worrying about extending it to the Exhibition.

Based on how they've done things so far, I think that's a fair assumption.

Metrolinx plans to cut down historic Osgoode Hall trees after all At the very least, couldn't these trees be moved to a different location?

I don't mind the design (though it should extend to the top/bottom)...but the base looks ridiculous.

Toronto.

Can't say I'm impressed. Surely they could come up with a design and base that are a better fit for the heritage structure next door, and the area in general?

I don't understand why there's such a concern over costs with projects like this, when in the suburbs people are relatively okay with unlimited budgets. You're right - all things considered these would be very valuable upgrades.

This is a very sensible take. An LRT would be a terrific fit for this area.

Wow. This is very interesting. Hopefully the proposal remains mostly intact.

That's fairly solid restoration work. Not too sure about Bay windows though.

If only they were proposing a project of similar calibre at this location...

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if firms have an AI that generates these cookie-cutter designs that could be anywhere. I understand the need for intensification, but this is a bit much. There are some established landmarks and a character to the area - why can't that guide design and...

Yikes. I've changed my mind. If this what they're building, Scarborough deserves all the subways they can get!

It seems like a no-brainer to have consistent lighting standards here.

No kidding. I've been in and around the area countless times and I had no idea there was a historical landmark/park there.
