nice design, but we should have 30 stories here.

Love it. No random rectangles and a unified facade that has not been broken up. This should be the bar for generic buildings.

I saw that too - what on earth is going on here. Is this station a kilometre deep or something?

Seeing this in 2024 is wild. We thought 2015 was bad. Can’t wait for studios to hit 1.5 million in 2030 o_O

This is why we have a boring cityscape. Developers are consistently scared off from doing anything creative or new because it will lose them money. All for some managers at city planning to posture that they actually do anything useful in this city. "What do you mean we're a bloated...

Design on pair of Ontario Line subway stations reaches milestone

The only scenario in which a downtown Brampton tunnel is even close to being a reasonable idea is if they are planning density greater than the Golden Mile or Square One District. I don’t think we will see that much density in downtown Brampton. Although I would certainly hope the Province is...

Could see Jane St being one of the possible Ontario Line West alignments

Cover photo of one of the architects working on the project on LinkedIn. I have a few mutual LinkedIn connections that work at Mott Macdonald on the project so their profile came up lol. There are no other renders I could find.

Don't know if this has been posted before or how recent it is. Looks like Lawrence East station?

I'll say it again: A King Street dedicated ROW is probably the lowest-hanging fruit of all possible investments in Toronto transit right now. Not pursuing this is insane.

Didn't see this. Good news

Still putting my money on a December opening.

That would be one way to do it, but would probably have more restrictions on night activity as residents would still be on the street for years to come. The better way would probably be for a developer to do a huge land assembly here. Which then would probably mean mixed use development with...

Zoning Reform Idea: Turn Draper Street into a fully pedestrianized bar/restaurant street. Retain heritage buildings and allow for patios built out onto the street. It's still close enough to King St to benefit from the current foot traffic in the area. Just add a nice stone-paved street with...

Isn't Finch actually using transit signal priority? Unless that's changed, my best guess is the trams are travelling at incredibly low speeds through intersections and into/out of stations

I hope 36 mins is the tested operation speed and not the design tolerance. Knowing Metrolinx communications I’m not too optimistic

I'd cancel all LRT projects in favour of redirecting those funds to either: Longer Sheppard extensions or Ontario Line extensions or a midtown GO line. I think we need to move our focus away from LRT's (except where it is low hanging fruit, like upgrading streetcar ROW's) and towards...

I'm very interested in how Crombie's liberals are going to "out-transit" the conservatives. I'm hoping the next election cycle brings some new projects onto the study table. Ontario line west and east extensions would be nice.

Is everyone here simply speculating on how surface crosstown intersection speed will function or has anything been confirmed?
