    Toronto Scotiabank Arena Renovations | ?m | ?s | MLSE | BBB

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    I'll leave it to an expert to opine on this, but I'd imagine they would be putting less resources into projects with their debts looming over them. How much of this breathing space would actually translate into taking more "risk", i.e. properly resourcing their projects, I have no idea.

To quote, "In its application, Bondfield said it needs protection from creditors to focus on completing construction projects while...

    Toronto 16 York | 154.83m | 32s | Cadillac Fairview | a—A

    January 14 - the CN Tower slowly renders on the northern face, reminding me of 1998 and 56k modems.

    Toronto Daniels Waterfront - City of the Arts | 156.05m | 45s | Daniels | RAW Design

    The two signs at the top are tasteless, and yes it’s similar to Scotiabank Arena.. although Scotiabank isn’t finished and things will get worse. This city’s signage office not only has to ensure signage compliance, but it must save companies from their own worst instincts.
