I went to the public open house tonight. I font think I learned snything groundbreaking thst many of you don’t already know but figured I’d share ehst I got from chatting with some of the metrolinx planners Miscellaneous items: -the trains being used are hitachi so they won’t be subject...

these renders look good and make me feel it should be a crime to build any above ground tracks a(LRTor streetcar) without green track in the city it looks so much better

Not trying for a hot take,but I don’t think king Torontos glass block cladding is going to be as spectacular as we hoped. To be honest, on its own it looks plain to me. This project is only going to flourish because of the greenery incorporated into it. Which begs the question, how many...

The Well has turned out better than i expected. i think a couple reasons for this are: 1. they paid good attention to the surrounding areas. thr rehab of wellington street with new pavers and street lampsgives it a very upscale feel. when walking in, and the patios are full it feels like...

Brandy, you're a fine girl

during the Queen's Quay revitalization from a few years back there were a couple items that never made it to the final design. now that we are redeisgning the ferry terminal, i wondered (hoped) they could be brought back. the ferry terminal is going to look amazing so i think it's important...

yes in London,UK they use boats as transit on the Thames. you can use your Oyster card or just tap for a transfer it’s a great way to get to other ends of the city.

scrapped from the final planss.s i'll say it again, i also think the ferries should serve ONtario Place and Scarborough bluffs too. i know ontario place will have a subway stop but iMagine how fabulous it qould bw be riding on the water to see a concert at bud stage on a summer night.

while on this topic, i thought i’d note a few thoughts on this 1. we do need new ferries, but i think it’s crazy how much we are spending for electric ferries when it’s such a short ride. but are electric ferries really necessary for such a short trip. i know our leadership is more...

I heard the well had a large food court so stopped by to check it out. It’s not massive, and I don’t recognize all the restaurants here. No big chains that I can see

this is turning out much better than i suspected based on the original renders

i dont LOVEthe look of thisd but i dont HATE it either

no, the imprrssion i got qA IT Qa not the STACKT markwt but more the land where th salt is stored. (this city loves its salt after all) i think they intend to continue using the lsnd for salat storage. again, i could be mistaken

i was at the public consULTion for the new 10 ordnance park last night ans one of the park designersmentioned this site was leased back to the city for 10 years. i dont know if this is acuuate, or how to even confirm but figured i would share. i guesss it will be a while before we seee any work...

Work is coming along:

Seeing some progress King and Bathurst station. South side:

This is gong up quick

Windows in

i noticed the orange cladding on the lower levels from @Red Mars recent pics so wanted to check it out. here are a few pics of it. my initial thought is it seems like a mash of different colours being used that don’t go perfectly together. however, the render looks good so i am hopeful it...

this wasn't my favorite of the design submissions when they tendered years back, but happy to say it's turning out amazing. Good thing I didn't get a vote. HA. I think this is going to be a beautiful building.
