Free Christmas present for the long suffering taxpayers of Toronto?

Without a tree in sight…

No more Phase 1 cranes but Phase 2 has started…

Yes lots of vehicles out over the weekend but some pretty interesting traffic jam ups of people turning onto Eglinton while waiting for trains to clear the intersections…yesterday afternoon there was a very long line at Bermondsey and this morning for some reason unknown (except coordination of...

An issue that is never raised are the safety issues that could potentially arise from a potential lack of access to this very densely populated area were a tragedy like London’s Grenfell fire, a train wreck or something similar occur. My daughter lived down there for several years and I often...

With respect to the Danforth…do any of the Metrolinx planners actually use or at least simulate use of any of these entrances and exits to their stations?

People with kids just want.a bit of a backyard rather than a rooftop patio or a balcony…

Will this new park connect to the proposed Don Mills Trail bridge crossing the CPR tracks…assuming such a bridge ever comes to pass…

I hope they have rethought the mixed change rooms which will exclude many women in that area from the facilities…

Just not thrilled for those having purchased south of the tracks…I fear the great family-oriented baseball games for six year olds at the Ted Reeves diamonds may be fading into history…

We really don’t ‘get’ intermodal transport connections in Toronto when you compare it to West Hampstead in London for instance…I have lived for twenty years silently seething at the Leslie Sheppard debacle…and it was government owned property separating the GO from the TTC. Finally apparently...

I don’t see the point of putting it so close to the new YMCA facility with nothing north of the tracks…
