On top of the speed and light priority, other hiccups: "Humber College" does not exist anymore, it's called Humber Polytechnic. There are not 18 new stations, they are all stops (except "Humber College"). Finch West is the most eastern "station" on the line. Unnecessarily confusing way finding...

The "To Finch West" signage isn't great, when you are actually going East. At least say "To Finch West Station". Isn't this the reason they changed the name of Eglinton West Station? Why not Finch West?

When was the decision made to name the "stops" on this line "Stations" (and who approved it)? It's intentionally misleading. There is one new station on this line, not 18, but all the marketing from TTC is showing "18 new stations". Why don't we add every single streetcar stop onto the "rapid...

The sidewalks going from Dundas to Bloor along Islington don't even get ploughed in the winter, they are full of snow and un-walkable. A elevator to unit ratio of one cab for every 144 units is absolutely insane. Expect long waits of 10 minutes+ for an elevator.

Are they proposing removing the trees that line Dundas here? It's a nice tree-lined avenue that is very pleasant looking, hope they are staying. 121m to the nearest bus stop is a little bit of a joke, the 40 is one of handful of routes that actually decreased in frequency this year, totally...

VMC is already showing signs of deterioration, the "new" buildings near VMC are renting from the $1600s, much lower than other newer buildings in other parts of the GTA, certainly below any other TTC subway surrounded community. These towers will require a bus to the VMC. I really do worry that...

Sherway is in a really difficult spot right now with how much empty square footage of space they have (Former Saks, Hudson's Bay, SportChek/Atmosphere, Nordstrom, even the former Holt Renfrew space). I wouldn't say it's "stunning" when it looks so empty and struggling financially.

Agree. Saw these in person, and couldn't believe they weren't office towers.

Is there an expected date for when the Loblaws will reopen?

We know Dunpar doesn't get too much love around here, but I like that this building (and the neighbourhood) isn't filled with glass/spandrel like most new builds/neighborhoods. The buildings fronting Dundas are all unique in their finishes.

It's weird that Longo's doesn't use Scene+ Points as their points/rewards partner despite being an Empire grocer (and Empire partly owning Scene). This could be a deterrent to current Sobeys customers from making the switch.

Any concern about the Costco opening in Wasaga Beach? Will that likely take a lot of business away from current grocery stores in Collingwood, plus this grocery store? Could it be too much?

This is The Kingsway, nobody is expecting these units to be anywhere near $300k.

My comment was more about the fact that there are no plans for any north/south lines between the University line downtown and Hurontario in Mississauga, and how wild that is.

No North/South connections (south of Bloor) from University to Hurontario is wild.

Is that the existing off ramp in the rendering? I thought the City of Toronto was intending to replace this ramp soon (and had expropriated some oft this land)? It's wild that South Etobicoke has absolutely no rapid transit in the pipeline given these dense proposals and what already exists at...

Technically CPP now owns about 44%, not a majority stake. PSP (which yes, is also public sector pensions) acquired 7.5%.

SportChek is moving across the street to the plaza along North Queen.

Nordstrom, SportChek, Atmosphere, Hudson's Bay, Saks, all going to be sitting empty. Yikes. This mall is going to have a hard time in the next little while.

The COBS bread moved to the other side of the plaza. Not sure if the other retailers are re-opening?
