Since I see no mention of them yet in this thread, Stapleton/Central Park in Denver and City Centre Airport/Blatchford area in Edmonton look like somewhat similar types of projects involving former airports being developed...

As pointed out in the linked articles above, it sounds more like Dollarama than a full grocery store. "The company is clearly no longer concerned about cannibalizing itself and seems to be targeting the Dollarama and Giant Tiger market in smaller areas". "Two-thirds of the products will be...

Was their supposedly "major" announcement that they now want it to be called "YZD" and they have a new logo? I was thinking it might have been something about a more definite plan for an individual building or big event, or some company becoming involved. https://www.yzd.ca/...

In their emails to encourage people to attend Play On The Runway this weekend, they say there will be -

Maybe they should convince Dubai to host the first all-indoor Winter Olympics.

The problem with hoping to flip it is that it's based on nothing but wishful thinking. Fixing up a few things almost certainly won't make CF or some other major company suddenly more eager to buy it. If they had any interest in buying it, they would have done it and improved it themselves.

My favourite is the "tracks are for trains" announcements -- as if this will cause the crack/meth enthusiasts or mentally unsound individuals hearing this to somehow think to themselves 'oh, yeah, I probably shouldn't run around on the subway tracks'.

Apparently not anymore. Canada Jetlines announces imminent closure the carrier performed its last batch of scheduled flights at the end of June earlier story from yesterday Canada Jetlines' CEO has stepped down along with a few of its board members as the airline continues to struggle to keep...

I saw this post with some recent photos.

Pop-up events at Zoo and CNE https://www.ontariosciencecentre.ca/what-s-on/pop-ups-and-events

The stories from the last couple of months said Corus was a billion dollars in debt had a deadline of Sept. 1 to work out a deal with creditors. We could see more of these stations have their format changed to "silent". (Edit: For a short time today, that is what the wikipedia page had there for...

Only if and when new owners wanted to demolish it, after they get plans approved to build something else there. As long as it remains in receivership, I assume not much will change. If this goes on for a long time and the situation gets worse, I suppose they could eventually shutter it, but they...

https://bootsandhearts.com/getting-here/ I've never been there, but it was the same deal a few years ago for a Rolling Stones show there. Large events in rural locations often do this (chartered buses), particularly music festivals, sometimes even something like Nascar races...

I've never looked closely at it, but I thought there was some kind of sign thing along the north side of Bloor at Oakmount Rd that might display a number?

This is getting off topic, but I knew someone who lived there from the late 1980s to the mid '90s, when the apartment building started to increasingly have a roach problem. One of the main things that has to be done to control their spread is to seal all the gaps around water pipes where they...

A suburban mall with enough parking lot space (like this one) could easily attract crowds with a series of free concerts. Some might roll their eyes and say these are all over the place in the summer at ribfest, park, and street festivals, but they do almost always work when they're free. A...

The two north-south "primary axis" lines linking Ontario Place to the Exhibition GO/TTC transit stations could be useful if made to be more well-defined and permanent, as in still there and used during the CNE, Indy, and Caribbean Carnival. But that would require them to be at least temporarily...

Has anyone said when this rebuilding of the venue will start? When it was announced three years ago, being completed "by 2030" was the only vague mention of a timeline. As I said in an earlier post above, unless they're going to find some greatly improved way for enormous crowds of 20,000 to...

- more about London's indoor/outdoor race track for electric cars that runs through and around a large exhibition hall https://racer.com/2024/07/25/formula-e-disrupts-temporary-track-template-with-london-excel/ Having short oval racing on small indoor tracks has been done for a long time...

This seems to indicate that the intention is to keep the present operational length of the main runway, by saying that they want to add the Runway End Safety Areas as "landmass extension", which requires the opening of the Tripartite Agreement...
