    You are missing the school behind it???? Are you telling me it will not cast a shadow there and on the supposed park they are creating? If you know so much about shadows, you must know about wind tunnels. You are also neglecting to mention a wind tunnel effect which already exists. It has been...

    HA HA - sense of prominence --more like a hulking presence destroying a mid-rise neighbourhood. Mid-rise neighbourhoods have a right to exist and to have any development fit into their neighbourhood not the other way around.

    I have really enjoyed this debate with you. Your responses are informed and balanced. For the record, I am not against development, I am against irresponsible development. If a development does not enhance the area, increases traffic congestion, affects green space and infrastructure can't...

    Yes, you are right on about the targets. Unfortunately , too many of us have seen developers agree to do the upgrades and then they mysteriously never appear. The nursery and seniors facilities the developers are supposedly incorporating for this site are so small, it is a joke. With added...

    These are not excuses-- you appear ready to excuse the fact that the real estate market is tanking, that pension funds bankrolling developers are destroying mid-rise neighbourhoods of pension holders who are forced out by the noise and congestion and that it is more likely tax payers will pick...

    Well, I guess you didn't read the part about gas station remediation, added pollution (I have a feeling you don't believe in climate change either...) and infrastructure concerns. You are the definition of YISBY (Yes In Someone Else's Backyard).

    The risk is in digging this up now when the remediation has not been completed. Remember this is one of the most polluted gas station sites in Toronto as a gas station was on that land for over 60 years . In cases like this, there have been instances where digging deep without satisfactory...

    My apologies, Albert. I shall just call you irresponsible and leave it at that :-)

    Are you really in this area??? The 1467 Bathurst Street site sits on the northeast corner of St.Clair and Bathurst. The developers will also build on 490 St.Clair Avenue West adjacent to the site (now St. Mikes parking lot next to Joes and Loblaws)which has never been tested for the gasoline...

    Clearly, all you realtors care more about building irresponsible developments than the neighbourhoods themselves. This former 'gas station' site leaked major amounts of gasoline not only on the site in the 1990's but across the street. City of Toronto and Suncor did not hash out a plan to...
