Not the best pics but, here are some shots I took on my latest site visit where you can see some of the curvature from the ground level.

Some pictures from my recent site visit/measure:

Best we can do is grey spandrel, EIFS or plain precast and a Shoppers/Dentist at the ground floor.

I'll one up you with this hit from 1910. Around the time the Queen Subway/DRL/Ontario Line was first proposed:

Italians have been blaming their issues on immigrants for as long as I remember. Especially when it comes to "paying taxes" --- for whatever reason. However, the biggest culprits when it comes to not paying their taxes, are Italians themselves. And then, the Italians who do pay their taxes and...

Psssh. Fake a marriage! 😆 I would suggest Ciro wines from Calabria. Especially a Rosato. Those are excellent in the summer, slightly chilled, with some taralli and olives for snacking.

Citizenship by marriage is another route you could take. Of course, if you choose to. 😂

You didn't get a picture of me taking field measurements! Taken from the underside of the third floor slab on the south elevation:

And high-speed trains that actually take you somewhere exist! And beaches And food And sports And fashion And cycling And history And art..

I thought Bhutila already ran for federal MPP? Shows how much I know! :-D

Yeah. I'm contemplating renewing my passport (I have citizenship through my father and my sister lives there). But it's not like it's any easier to live in Italy. It's pretty pricey too.

I have been meaning to go to this place for a long time. I'd love to take my daughter there. Did you like it? Was it cozy enough? Found Espresso also opened up across the street from the Master Mechanic.

It is still Run and Gun. It is my daughter's favourite and we always have to stop off for a treat after some time at McCormick park.

How about Run and Gun Coffee at Dundas and Sheridan? Also, there us a cozy little coffee shop at the corner of College and Lansdowne? Tim Horton's. Super cozy. /s

The frequency of vehicles coming in and our would be reduced. That car wash was busy and had lots of cars coming in and out. The S-Mart on the south side of College, which most of us are talking about, has notoriously bad circulation. It is such a cramped parking lot. So you get vehicles pulling...

I only learned about what Faygo is in this thread and I too am disturbed. Does the S-mart also stock Crystal Pepsi and New Coke? Back on topic about the upcoming development here, if this building can slot in at 6 stories, I think it would fit in nicely (not withstanding finishes/quality). I...

That's the one. Sure pal "absolutely brutal for the neighbourhood". 🤦‍♂️ The Car Wash and Tim Horton's across the street looking as grimey as the are, are truly beacons of the neighbourhood.

Supply isn't the issue, lots of distributors, however I don't think there are many (if at all) terracotta specific manufacturers in Canada. Maybe in the US where it is a more widely used material (like in the south & south west) there would be some manufacturers, I'm not sure. However, I am not...

Ugh and the responses in that thread (my wife joined the group).. 'but muh backyardz', 'think of the children', etc.. If I'm not mistaken it's rumored to be mass timber and a good chunk of rentals and no parking (??).
