    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s

    I definitely have sympathy for the residents of the stretch of Pape.

    Toronto Time and Space Condos | 101.8m | 29s | Pemberton | Wallman Architects

    In any other context, I wouldn't have any huge issues with the development. However, the fact that it borders the St. Lawrence community, one of the best Toronto neighbourhoods of the last century, is unfortunate, and at worse, insulting.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    With a provincial election potentially only a few months away, there have to concerns among the Liberal camp about Bonnie Crombie's ability to win a seat. It's believed that Crombie wants to run in her hometown of Mississauga, but recent polling has the Doug Ford PCs in deep majority territory...

    Toronto 35 Bellevue Avenue | 12.5m | 4s | St. Clare's | Montgomery Sisam

    Wonderful project. Given the pushback from some Kensington Market retailers to the pedestrianization of the market, I wonder if there will be similar opposition to the loss of the parking lot?

    Toronto 160 Disco Road | 14.6m | 3s | Lisi | Brian Awde

    How are you going to build just a banal building on a street named Disco Road?
