with trump deciding to mess with H-1B visas, we could start seeing some really big shifts in tech towards toronto
Tech industry absolutely relies on H-1B visas and their need for talent is not going to be stopped
I saw someone on twitter suggested Diversity Street and it surprisingly fits really well. Diversity Square. Yonge and Diversity. Royal York and Diversity. Diversity Street East. One of those rare times a name that is kind of tossed around which sounds like a jab/joke ends up working really...
yes please
should be noted that the city did designate kipling from lakeshore going north as a future rapid transit corridor a few years ago... so one day... maybe...
also it would appear a lot of buildings are smaller now
some at the back are bigger but the ones that were closer to lakeshore/parklawn are now a bit smaller (mostly to make sun coverage of the new park work)
still some really big buildings in there but it's not as omg it's a city type of...
fyi
the schools will be at the bottom of the buildings behind the park... expected to be 1 catholic and 1 TDSB school
it's in the first planning rationale document (as well as with pics! lots of new stuff to look at)
the park itself has doubled in size as well... possibly at the expense of a...
waterfront LRT is coming from the city, not province... technically the ford funding announcement is paying for it through saving the city from their spending on those transit projects

to be fair this is project is a huuuuuuuuuuge improvement over what is in the area
though i'll have to see how big the alleyways thing is... that's kind of like the japanese micro business concepts which i *love* and would really bring charm if they can pull it off
but the rest of the area is...
Well, it will at least have an LRT which is better than nothing... the one good thing about Mississauga still maintaining large roads is if they ever need to build a subway, they'll have the room to do it when the time comes.
This is going to be a 25-35s building probably
Not too big, not too small
Hell, 42 park lawn hasn't had any movement despite being approved years ago so we might not see anything on the lot for a long time
Holy smokes that's massive
Imagine that The Well is only the fourth or fifth largest project in the GTA. Between 2150 lake shore, the two huge developments at sherway and this, that's over 100 towers between them all. Incredible.
Man if this is shocking people.... just wait and see what happens when the industrial lands on kipling starts moving.... oh baby is it going to get wild.
