Sorry 42... didn't know you lived there. I had 2 crappy condos there but never anything so low as to look west into the stellar new parking garage proposed.
Couldn't you just move up?

98% invisible. 100% if travelling north.
I only meant that we Torontonians don't want a four floor above ground parking garage at the south end of Yonge Street. Ick.
I don't live there.

Yonge St. really does loses it's awesomeness south of Front. St. it seems. This is a trend that should stop.

42, don't be in a panic... I barely have enough extra valium for the most desperate UT forumers....
It's just a place to park and they've clearly given it some thought.

I think it looks pretty good its better than an ugly concrete garage!

Uhh, I think that's a joke, not an actual model.

When a chair can be mistaken for a parking garage, I think we may have gone too far... either with the design of chairs, or with the architecture of garages.

Je ne panic jamais!!

OK Carrot-duh (pronunciation?).... using that other official language is just a blatant strategy to undermine genuine dialogue.
Je ne comprend pas french. Je parle some Hindi though...

Wait - we were involved in genuine dialogue? You just had a Libeskind chair joke going!
Okay - genuine dialogue:
A 4 floor above ground parking garage is usually not a good idea anywhere in the city, and I would not like to see one just to the east side of Yonge Street at the tracks there even if it isn't a pretty spot now anyway...
unless Libeskind or another imaginative architect can come up with something that transcends the typical above ground garages that we know and hate. I'm sure DL could come up with something interesting, but do we know that Castlepoint are willing to spend the money it will take to have one of his designs built? It would be great if they are, but otherwise, I don't want to see it. Otherwise, I say bury the garage under the Esplanade.

I'll try and take a pic to show the almost zero impact of a stage door garage versus not having (due to $$$) the L in all its glory and the Humming I mean Sony re-invention/reinvigoration.
Pretty sure Castlepoint has a problem and a coal mine under the Esplanade is not a viable solution. So?
