Quel surpris! Up to now, this has been SUCH a well managed Project...

Walter: Your posts are starting to become annoying, again. This is the kind of post that would better fit in Then and Now thread or even here IF anyone was suggesting this!

This fits here SEE: https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2025.PH26.10 It is worth reading the communications from two local resident groups who seem determined to keep fighting this shelter being built - this time because they say that the partial closure of a Lane ought to...

The delays on Line 5 are nothing to do with the City - they are all on Metrolinx and their (usually micro-managing) boss Doug Ford.

This probably belongs here...

That is a very extreme view - libraries work best if they have fairly large (and open or flexible) floor-plates and if you put a library below any other use you need to use some of the space for elevators and for stairs and a large residential building needs space on ground floor for garbage...

Maybe, but the City wants to get that block of Lower Sherbourne back to two-way traffic so I suspect it will be done - sooner than later.

Yes, the current St Lawrence branch is below a residential building and gets frequent floods.

I looked it up and here is the Transportation Master Plan From: https://www.waterfrontoronto.ca/sites/default/files/connect/waterfront/e175e435-b3a0-4ff2-be24-1eb449a16b31/lower-yonge-precinct---pic-summary-report-final-low-res.pdf

Yes, the Bay on ramp is being removed and the Jarvis off ramp will end at Yonge. Or that used to be the plan.

This urgent motion was passed by TEYCC in July 2025 because the tend was due to be demolished later this year' '. Naturally, it's still there, though it is still only December so I suppose.......

The TTC Presser states "In May 2025, the TTC Board approved the renaming of Dundas Station to TMU Station, reflecting a new partnership with Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU). Beyond the name change, this partnership includes the creation of the Transit Innovation Yard, a dedicated hub for...

It is clear from this press release that TPL include to CLOSE the current St Lawrence Branch when this one opens. I hope they can be persuaded to continue to have a branch somewhere south of QUEEN STREET between Yonge and Parliament as this area will be very 'under-libraried'.

Yes, most certainly DO work but one (Lower Sherbourne just south of The Esplanade) has been out of service for many months. I see no way to report it. The map does not note any being disabled. Though I would like them to deal with broken docks, the REAL problem is that there are far too often...

Not quite sure what this means but ... SEE: https://secure.toronto.ca/council/agenda-item.do?item=2025.EX28.7

I walked past 4 or 5 Bike Docks in St Lawrence yesterday afternoon. I saw THREE empty docking 'ports' and I know at least one of them has been defective for months. They REALLY need to take some more bikes off the street or buy more docks!!

Maybe not this fall but it IS being widened/straightened. The work on Lower Sherbourne may be a City-run project though paid for by the developer. They have quite a bit of preparation to do first including relocating Hydro poles on west side of the street and moving the fire hydrant on QQE...

The white fabric is clearly the winter protection and is covering the scaffolding (and why the scaffold was raised above the roof- line) I assume they will heat the work area and are now working on brickwork and maybe windows. Clearly they are not done yet,! Here is ashot of the FlatIron...

My City contacts tell me... "The Great Hall projects (lighting and marble floors) are advancing and on track for project work to commence next year. The Flux art installation remains on scheduled to be installed and completed in February 2026, following the wrap-up of the Roller Express event...

There is always room for expansion but BikeShare has really expanded amazingly fast in last year or two.
