This did not happen yet but I think it may start in the next week.
When the street is fully closed I assume the TTC will re-route the 121 and 75 buses via Front but no note on TTC site yet.

I’ve always noticed, the St. James Cathedral spire looks like it is leaning east?
Red lines match the concrete columns and walls of the building behind, they appear straight with it, but with St. James, as the spire reaches the top of the red lines, we can see it appears closer to the right one, east, appearing to lean?

I assume that map is only a representation, and they're not actually closing off Jarvis at that intersection? Because given all else happening that would be pretty catastrophic for traffic in the area with the Gardiner access blocked off. Sherbourne and Parliament would become gridlocked.

The sewer pipe project on The Esplanade and adjacent streets ends at Lower Jarvis and I assume that the new Esplanade sewers (storm & sanitary) will link into those on Lower Jarvis. This would presumably mean some work ON Lower Jarvis but possibly work that could be done overnight. I agree that significant blockages of Lower Jarvis would make an already messy street impossible.

Has it? I was by there a few days ago and it looked the same as in the picture.

The web (presumably from patrons on the pre-opening night who got a free meal?) says...We walked past last night and there were people eating inside last night when we walked past and menu was posted.

"The staff were extremely knowledgeable and the service was first rate."

"Great atmosphere, friendly staff and tasty beers on tap!"
They had a live piano player (audible/visible from the street) reminded me of the Piano Bars of the 1970s :->

Just noticed they installed the new stop signs at Scadding and Princess. No paint yet, and about half the drivers are still driving straight through, probably out of habit.

I saw the Pizza Forno machine near King and Sherbourne was being removed today. A sign in the window says they'll be moving it to a new location nearby "soon". Hopefully something can make better use of that space: with its little patio area it could be quite nice for the right business.

Yes, we walked past it today too and wondered where it was going and what might be coming there. Has anyone actually tried their pizza - I have grave reservations about quality but maybe at 4am.....

I'm glad I finally tried it for the first time a couple weeks ago then! It was 3:30am and I was hungry and I'd been waiting years for that exact scenario to try it out. I was able to stack a couple promos and get the pizza for just over $5. It was a decent option for 4AM munchies. Wouldn't make sense to go there any time other than after all the real pizza options closed for the night though.

Weird that they'd move it as I believe their offices are in that same building.

They're moving their offices too. To "downtown Toronto". I don't know if they realize they're already in downtown...
