"...look at the Atrium..." The Atrium should have a direct open underground connection with the Eaton Center. Being so isolated right next to the Eaton Center is a major weakness.

Yes. Just look at the graph. Some years/decades have been quite uneventful as far as building completions is concerned. http://www.skyscrapercenter.com/city/Toronto

Yes!

So true. I already pay $150/month for my internet, can not pay anymore. I work part-time on-call for minimum wage. Can not, will not pay for any website access.

For all we know, if someone pays the naming rights, the CN Tower might become the Trump Tower, the Bombardier Tower, the SNC-Lavalin Tower, …

Not everyone coming from a subway extension north of Finch would go downtown, and those who would already take a bus to Finch to go downtown. So it would not significantly make overcrowding worse at the core of the system. Of course, any extension doesn't change the need for a downtown relief...

What is the purpose of the truncated bridge on the right, since it doesn't connect to anything?

Already 686 pages in this thread since 2008, and still no shovel in the ground.
