    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    That is factually wrong. How can you take a city that has grown tremendously in recent years and reduce traffic capacity by 50% on roads where lanes have been removed in order to create bike lanes and not expect increased congestion and travel times. Toronto streets were not originally...

    Toronto Yonge-Dundas Square/Sankofa Square (Brown + Storey Architects)

    I think the solution is obvious. Find another person with the name Dundas, preferably local, with no ties to Henry Dundas, and who carries no baggage, and name the street and square after that person. Put up a plaque recognizing this person and you're done. Millions save and life goes on.

    Toronto Fairview Mall Redevelopment | 176.9m | 52s | Cadillac Fairview | HPA + Adamson

    It depends upon the ICE car in the comparison. Getting an extra 200 kilometers used to cost around 8-9 dollars. Then when gas rates went up so did the price at the Tesla superchargers so that the same 200 kilometers now costs about 15-16 dollars. Elon blames Measurements Canada. I blame...

    Toronto Concord Sky | 300.2m | 85s | Concord Adex | Kohn Pedersen Fox

    One area where I remain in the imperial world is a persons height and weight. If they issue an APB and describe the person in cm and kg I wouldn't know this person if they were standing next to me (I don't know my own weight and height in metric).

    Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 (nCoV-2019)

    Actually Mr. Trudeau did want the Sinovac vaccine except the Chinese reneged on the deal. By the way even by Chinese estimates the Sinovac is not very effective. He completely backed the wrong horse and now goes on about how many vaccines we've order like somehow the quantity ordered somehow...

    Toronto Union Centre | 298m | 54s | Westbank | Bjarke Ingels Group

    Not likely Amazon. Amazon inks deals for Toronto office space after rival Shopify’s expansion - The Globe and Mail

    Toronto Rogers Centre Renovations | ?m | ?s | Toronto Blue Jays | Populous

    There can only be one first game.

    Toronto Rogers Centre Renovations | ?m | ?s | Toronto Blue Jays | Populous

    The first Jays game was not cancelled due to snow as I was there ("We want beer! We want Beer!...). Had it been any other game in the 81 home game scheduled it likely would have been cancelled due to snow. Dave Winfield did not join or play against the Jays until years later (I don't think he...

    Vaughan 7800 Jane | 192.93m | 60s | Aspen Ridge | BDP Quadrangle

    Jane and Seven will have the biggest traffic gridlock in the city (if it isn't already). Everywhere they've added these dedicated bus lanes along highway 7 the traffic slows to a crawl during much of the day during week days and this is especially true during rush hour (even during covid-19...

    Toronto Union Park | 303.33m | 71s | Oxford Properties | Hariri Pontarini

    I was doubtful about this (Rail Deck Park) ever getting done and that was before Covid. Now, given the city's finances, I don't see it ever happening (but I'm happy to be wrong on this one).

    Toronto Novus at Garrison Point | 119.17m | 34s | BGO | Hariri Pontarini

    I don't think I've ever scrolled down the list of projects and not read this project as "Norovirus". Think I'd pass on living here (terrible imagery)

    Toronto One Bloor West | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    A better question is why do you focus on this project?

    Toronto One Bloor West | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    I don't know what draws people to constantly monitor a thread for a project they don't like. What's the point? Many of us are looking forward to this development and appreciate that fact that someone is thinking big when most are afraid to try.

    Toronto Woodbine Racetrack Redevelopment | 31.85m | 11s | Woodbine Ent | DIALOG

    I would take Saga or Gowan over 90% of what is popular now.

    Toronto One Bloor West | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    I'm curious if you are policing all city constructions sites like you are this one? If no then why not?

    If a drama teacher can do it I guess anyone can.
