    Toronto Bauhaus Condos | 110.9m | 32s | Lamb Dev Corp | a—A

    I know the existing building on the property has a driveway (maybe two?) but with the proposed King Street Transit Pilot Project the city should not be approving any new developments that maintain or add driveways or parking entrances on King. Yes, in its current form the pilot project doesn't...

    Regent Park: Block 17N (TCHC, 12s, Wallman Architects) COMPLETE

    Excavation for this building began last week. Trucks were lined up along Dundas St. E. this morning as well.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    I agree. Capping benefits every transit user. I used to be a metropass user even though I rarely used the 45 trips a month to get my money's worth, I use TTC to commute most days but there are always a couple days a month where I don't. For me the metropass was convenient so I didn't have to...

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    Sherbourne to River on Shuter is unrideable and almost undriveable given the current state of the pavement. It's become more obvious now that River is finally repaved.

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    So left hand turns going west to south will still be allowed at King and Jarvis? Seems like that will slow down streetcars before entering the pilot area. Source...

    Regent Park

    I noticed there's a sign up in the empty storefront of One Park Place. Between Shopper's and Wendy's. It has a Fishing Lure and says "The Shop Coming Soon" Anyone have any idea what it is? Also, the space currently doesn't have an entrance facing Dundas, although I'm sure that can be easily...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    The Richmond lights are a good thing, but lights at Simcoe/Queen and Simcoe/Dundas as well would essentially extend the Simcoe St. bike lanes to College (with a few jogs north of Dundas)

    Hamilton Hamilton Line B LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    It appears the grade separation starts at Gage Avenue and Extends to Glendale, that's a distant of 300+m if they aren't fully grade separating the roadway at the very least there should be a pedestrian crossing associated with the grade separation or that will really cut off the north and south...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    It looks like they've begun construction of elevators at St. Patrick Station to improve accessibility. Are there any plans available for this work? There's hoarding up on the median on University just north of Dundas and this morning there was a small backhoe. Is that where they're adding the...

    Toronto's Largest Parking Garages

    Sorry if this is a bit off topic but I saw this recently and thought it was a cool idea. Which Toronto parking garage would make for the best and most exciting location for an event like this? First one that came to mind for me was the St. Lawrence Green P.

    Moss Park / Queen & Sherbourne

    I was watching this be renovated last summer. I was disappointed when it ended up just being a single home. I always thought that it would be a neat building for a small hostel. Shared kitchen and patio on the roof would be very neat. Also 3.3 million and those are the front doors you put...

    Toronto Spadina Subway Extension Emergency Exits | ?m | 1s | TTC | IBI Group

    I'm not sure that road have crossing the railway is even feasible any more. Isn't the rail line at grade there? With the potential for up to 3 tracks and so close to the station I can't imagine that road will ever be permitted.

    VIA Rail

    I've been thinking about a Barrie-Collingwood train recently too, I'm not sure a downtown Collingwood station makes sense any more. A station in south Collingwood might make more sense (near Poplar Sideroad) That way it's more accessible to Wasaga beach by bus and not have the need for a...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    These are all good best practices for pedestrian safety, however, it's disappointing that the experts didn't provide any solutions that would improve this unique intersection. The worst part of it is actually at Eglinton/O'Connor and they didn't even touch on that. I think making the curve...

    Toronto BMO Field Renovations | ?m | ?s | MLSE | Gensler

    The roof is high enough over the permanent stands so as not to block views from the temporary stands but the roof does not cover the temporary stands. Source: I was very wet after the semi-final game against Montreal

    Toronto Park Towns Bayview and Sheppard | 13.41m | 4s | Broccolini | CMV

    Did this development add street parking to Sheppard Ave? I wasn't aware that there was street parking anywhere along Sheppard

    Toronto Pan Am Village in the West Don Lands | ?m | ?s | DundeeKilmer | KPMB

    I don't think that space is big enough for a grocery store, I think that's destined to be another restaurant with a patio on the west side adjacent to Tannery Road. The area will eventually need a grocery store, when I walk through there I often wonder what the old warehouses are destined for...

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    The schedule is set (somewhat) by the private sector company. This project is being delivered as an AFP (Alternative Finance Procurement) which means that the private company is financing all of the construction and won't be paid the majority (there may be smaller interim payments) of $5...

    Roads: Bayview Extension/River Street

    I know the Bayview road allowance is quite narrow south of Rosedale Valley Road and I drive through here during rush hour all the time. I often wonder whether Bayview could function as a 2 lane road + Multi-use path from Rosedale Valley to River Street as it currently does south of River. From...

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    So was the new multi use path crossing under construction at Pottery Road exempt or was the EA for the Lower Don Trail improvements completed before the policy came into effect?
