Was literally about to say this 😂 At 27 billion we better be getting our own curved glass elevators and parametric patterned GFRC cladding

I wonder when we will get to see station renders?

I joke to vent frustration but good for Brampton in all honesty. Brampton will likely be the centre of population growth in the GTA for the next while and its good to see them trying to create more of an urban city centre. In spite of my frustration, I remain hopeful Toronto will see momentum...

Can Toronto just amalgamate under the City of Brampton please? Maybe then we will finally see construction start on John Street.

I really hope the surface parking is interim. Metrolinx continues to drag their feet on any meaningful TOD around GO projects, while they have been doing excellent TOD planning for the Ontario Line. I don't get it.

Yongetomorrow is only going from Queen to College in the current RFP. I don't think theres been any mention of College to Bloor anywhere by the city.

So upon further reading, I get the sense that the federal govt will be the deciding factor on whether jets are brought to the table. I think Toronto/GTA proper would benefit greatly from having a second airport for longer ranged USA/latam flights but I don't know if Billy Bishop is the place to...

impressive Haven’t seen something this good from WZMH in a while

What is the timeline for hiring a new CEO?

Ok so I moved to Toronto after the Billy Bishop jet airplane debate in the early 2010s - are jets completely dead in the water here? Or is it possible that gets brought back to the table with opening up the tripartite agreement again?

@Frankietls any design updates here?

I don’t think anyone is arguing that single stair is a turn key solution to affordability. If they are, they should not be taken seriously. Most of the arguments for single stair I have read focus on increasing housing choice, availability of land that can be developed, as well as increasing...

We certainly have the fleet size to achieve economies of scale if a retrofit was undertaken.

Make Toronto Brick Again

BEMU gets a lot of backlash in transit circles but this is exactly the type of route/service where it seems like it would work great. Excited for this

The media should be making a frenzy over this. We will not be able to realize an extensive bike network if we put up with insane costs like this. Im just confused more than I am angry. How is it this expensive? This might be the worst case of public overspending I have seen in this city.

https://www.renewcanada.net/toronto-and-the-federal-government-to-fund-west-toronto-railpath-extension/ I know I complain a lot about construction costs on this forum but I can’t help myself here: $148 million seems outlandish for just over 2km of bike path. I know bike bridges are included...

I don’t have a good feeling with Parsons leading the design here. Their Landscape portfolio is mostly tacky UAE, Saudi, and Kuwait auto-dominated public realm. Literally pavers in a wavy pattern with a few palm trees and call it a day. They seem to have zero experience with major streets in...

God forbid we have shadows over parks when every year breaks a new heat record.

Overheard two people in Timmie’s talking about moving forward on a couple rental multiplex sites in the city, planning to apply for cmhc funding. It’s cool seeing policy changes you read about intersect in real life and have a real impact in the world.
