The Lafarge's operation just south of Lemon Bridge. Who knows if it'll still be around 20 years from now, but I'm glad it's still there currently.

A little birdie whispered to me that an amazing public art piece is coming to the top of this beautiful façade in September!

A great article in the G&M about the steps taken in the Lower Don for stormwater featuring The Portlands. Very intriguing thoughts on how WT could move a bit north along the Don to work its magic. I love the idea of this organization slowly being given more critical areas and funding!
Idea: The Waterfront Toronto Institute where all of the amazing brains can spread the good word or maybe joining OCADU’s Climate Centre!

Toronto’s Don River floods, and plans to prevent more chaos, offer urgent lessons for climate-challenged cities
July’s deluge on the Don Valley Parkway was the result of fateful planning choices decades ago. A Port Lands project is now trying to avert disaster downstream – but there are more far-reaching ways to create ‘sponge cities’ for the future

Another story on the PlayPark:

Honestly with usual costs for infrastructure in Canada, $75 million for a destination park doesn't seem too horrible. Hopefully government funding come quickly or it could even be good PR for some larger companies to cover the cost and get their name attached. Hopefully it gets funded before the costs rise further!
