    Toronto Forma | 308m | 84s | Great Gulf | Gehry Partners

    The panels also don't do it for me. The repeating nature doesn't jive with the "crumpled" randomness of the concept. I find it unsettling as well that there's no relationship between the waves on the panels. I expected that the windows would appear to by "punched" out but instead the panels have...

    Toronto Ontario Line: Don Valley Station (was Science Centre Station) | 22.8m | 3s | Metrolinx | HDR

    So a portion of the bus bays at the station are already closed (temporarily) for construction despite never even opening?

    Toronto East Harbour GO and Ontario Line Station | 14.35m | 1s | Metrolinx

    They are putting up the beams to support the next section of the bridge over Eastern today.

    Toronto Ookwemin Minising | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    Too bad they need the steel beams at the top but I guess they don't want the stress on the cables alone. At least they painted them white now.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Vic Park to Main had service a couple of weeks back as well. Might have been the whole way through to Pape? Seemed I had service through to Donlands but I wasn't paying a lot of attention to the bars or whether it was just residual from the stations or true service.

    Hamilton International Airport

    I assume they bought something like this, then extended the ramp a bit so that the climb up to an A321 or 737 isn't too steep. Neither of those, especially the 737, is very high off the ground. https://oshkoshaerotech.com/products-and-services/gate-equipment/regional-aircraft-bridges

    Toronto Ontario Line: Corktown Station | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | HDR

    At first glance I thought it was a new cable car.

    GO Richmond Hill Line

    The first one on the LSE is not open anymore. All fenced off. The second one is still there, last time I ran up to that area.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    Notable exception is that you can't move funds from a "lost or stolen" physical card to a virtual card. I think I will go with the custom load option onto the physical card, use it one last time and cut it up.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    Question for the Presto experts. I have my physical card that has like $1.73 on it. I never use it anymore. I also have a digital card in my Apple Wallet which is the one I use. I should have just converted my physical card way back when but I wasn't 100% confident in the Wallet stuff at the...

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Good news too - CafeTO blocks are going in on Queen and Kingston Road. Gridlock is back in the east end.

    Union Station Rail Corridor Improvements

    They are all gone except for a few feet of the bases. Rode the GO today and there are just a bunch of piles of scrap now and not a lot else.

    Toronto Birchley Park | 46.2m | 12s | Diamond Kilmer | TACT

    Answering my own question - this popped up in our neighbourhood WhatsApp this afternoon. It's dead and deposits are being refunded. https://www.birchleypark.com

    Toronto Birchley Park | 46.2m | 12s | Diamond Kilmer | TACT

    This whole thing seems completely stalled. Nothing happening on site in months.

    Toronto 1 Thora | 28m | 7s | Vaultra Storage | Pearce Mccluskey Architects

    Just what we needed here. A towering monstrosity for people with too much stuff to pay to have someone store their stuff.

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Went to see the Canadian come down the Don Valley but it just sat up the line waiting for GO Richmond Hill trains to go north for 90 minutes and it was getting dark. Complain all you want about CN Rail, but Metrolinx is a terrible host to VIA Rail trains. Anyways, while I was there, I flew the...

    Train Spotting

    In June, 2003, a special train (CP 2816 aka the "Empress") went over the bridge pulling a GO consist. I caught this view from our condo at Don Mills and Eglinton. I still miss those views...we moved out in 2007. Maybe someday we'll get GO service across midtown although I doubt it.
