I’ve never understood how some retail merchandisers see prime window space and then cover it up with bookcases and vinyl wraps. I agree with @Richard White this just screams unfinished and incompetence. I mean, what is this?? Doesn’t CF have minimum build standards to avoid making the...

Yes, as a distribution centre for UberEats. You’re in there trying to get a donut in that new tight space, and a dozen men with square boxes on their backs are in there with you chattering on speakerphone while waiving at the one person behind the counter with an order number while you try to...

The Tims at Dundas Square (on Victoria) has cut their public area in half, including sealing the windows. Now it’s just a small space for ordering at the counter, geared to UberEats pickups — no seating. The renovation comes as a delayed reaction after a decade of dealing with being a hangout...

They did a good job with this. The unfortunate thing is that this PATH section now leads nowhere with The Bay’s closure. Yes, Cadillac Fairview reopened the Bay’s lower level but it’s still far enough from the Eaton Centre or subway that people will opt for other routes rather than go through...

You forgot to complete your sentence. Here I’ll finish the sentence for you: Therme has disclosure obligations in the agreement it signed with Ontario. Read it here. Therme was valued at less than a million Euro in equity when it signed the lease. Therme has since notified the Province of...

Something will inevitably be built there. For what it's worth, the only place you can see that concrete wall is standing right in front of it on Ed Mirvish Way and Pearl or with a drone. You can't even see it just a little further up on Duncan.

When has anything been done on time in this province? As of this moment, Therme is not funded. Further demonstrating the Ford Government's highly suspicious favouritism towards a bid that had to lie to get picked, was hand waved in anyway despite that lie being found out, and is still not...

The pods look nice and white. The Cinesphere still looks rusty. Hopefully more work to come to fully restore these assets. I’m not staunchly opposed to reinventing Ontario Place. Clearly it hasn’t worked for the last few decades. Retaining and restoring the soul of its architecture — the pods...

Broomstick you say? I know just the candidate.

Brad Brad’s council seat isn’t a given. He’s heavily disliked in The Beaches. He first ran as a bike riding progressive and turned out to be a Toronto Sun / CP24 fear monger whose other attributes are cockiness and an obnoxious attitude.

I'll say this, if it's a boring election, I'd like Josh Matlow to run again. He was a rising star with a chance at winning in the last election until Olivia Chow stepped in and took the flag with her higher profile and name recognition. I don't think Matlow would win against Chow in a head to...

My centre-right leaning brother likes Chow. Says she’s boring and competent. He’s noticed improvements in the city in things he cares about. A sample of one isn’t necessarily a bellwether but I don’t think he’s alone. It’s going to be a low turnout election and Chow is going to win it easily —...

That was her predecessor and why she was brought in. She returned the skating rink and state of good repair is seeing improvement. Yes, she's turned the organization around and put it on a positive footing. I wish she would stay but she's handing it off better than how she found it 18 months ago.

Not really. Are his poll numbers up? Yes, technically. Would I call that momentum? No, he's the only one running. 16 percent in a race with no other announced candidates is pretty darn dismal. Bradford will not be Mayor. He'll try again in 8 years and will still lose.

I'm going to be house and dog sitting for a friend for 2 weeks. It's winter so the walks won't be fun and I think I'll get a little cabin fever staying inside and only letting the dogs out in her back yard as she does. I'm going to be responsible and follow the rules. I've seen the no pets...

Using the bridge from Backstage implies going through the entire lobby or even accessing the tower itself. The bridge from Union is more of a connection to the bus terminal which only requires going into the lobby maybe 20 feet before reaching the escalator down to the walkway. From what I...

I’ve been hearing all these good things about Harbourfront and connecting them in my mind to the new CEO that started last year, only to find out that she’s leaving.

Looks like the decision has been made. The plan to route people around the construction site through a garden between Osgoode Hall and the soundproof wall… is dead. Rather than take down a short concrete wall, they erected a 10 foot tall wooden wall to keep people out and instead route...

The bridge to CIBC Square and Bus Terminal opens “Fall 2025”. Hmm, they have until… checks calendar… tomorrow. To be fair, it looks ready to open any day now… …but I’m gonna go on a limb and say they’re not making that deadline:

What a heartbreaking loss. 😭
