Hey, adma knows more than a thing or two around here, but let me answer this.
Your memory is correct. There is a block of these still remaining south of Glencairn Ave.
I forgot to answer, but that was indeed my proposed answer: townhomes replacing earlier townhomes. (And judging by the roof patterns, I'd suppose the replacements are denser-while-pretending-otherwise.)

T-Squared: Bloor St just west of Brunswick Av, north side. Yeah a hippy planter in the Annex.

^Yeah. I went here:
Pretty good, although the setup is odd and the servers seem a bit nervous. Better than Jules down the street though.
I recently "discovered" the appeal of this street as well:

Oh Hollywood Gelato= I love the Babeview
Epi Breads has amazing quiche (although I can easily knock it off.)
That dog was a chick magnet--shall I get a dog like that one?

^Yeah, I was at Marky's--good chopped liver there.
(I have an idea that could "urbanize" this intersection. Here's what I'd do: keep the Marky's etc retail strip, widen the sidewalk around the plaza, then I'd rejig Wilson @Bathurst into a square--one way going west parallel to Marky's etc (within 3 metres of the strip), then have an urban square in the middle with trees etc and perhaps a building housing a cafe; and do the same on the south side. Sort of like Clarence Square/Wellington@Spadina area. [New square would essentially be where Wilson is now.] Am I dreaming?)

The Bathurst street drivers would love you.
Top speed on Bathurst up to 80 or 90km nowadays; especially at night.

I've been watching for an answer to this one. It seems vaguely familiar.
Is it somewhere north of Eglinton & south of Lawrence? Not even sure which side of Yonge.
