    Toronto 325 Bogert Avenue | 86.86m | 27s | Greatwise | Core Architects

    Obviously an ask-for-the-moon proposal! As a community benefit, put in a Sheppard subway extension and a Senlac station and I'm OK with this. haha

    Toronto Golden Mile Shopping Centre Redevelopment | ?m | 48s | Choice Properties | Giannone Petricone

    Wow! I noticed in your third image, two towers on top of Eglinton Square mall. Any background on them?

    Toronto Emerald Park Condos | 128.92m | 40s | Bazis | Rosario Varacalli

    Nice. That airport bus used to originate from GO Bus YorkMills terminal. Much more convenient that it comes from Finch now! It's a new tunnel, not new gates. The new tunnel leads to the original mid-70's gates, or whenever these gates were made.

    In the beginning, my wife and I had always lived in the suburbs and had multiple cars. When we bought our first house in the area, we decided on one car since I was the only one driving to work (the wife took the subway downtown). As traffic grew, I quit driving and started cycling to work...

    North York City Centre (Yonge & Sheppard)

    I wonder if the talk around eliminating the property-tax rebate program for vacant storefronts is pushing the owner.

    There is some misinformation being spewed here! Hopefully I'm not being repetitive. ;) "Anchor tenants" exist for a reason. They bring in customers, period! No one is being "pushed-out" of Sheppard Centre! Believe it or not, "small ethnic mom&pops retailers" need these well-known stores to...

    Hope this brings more business to you, Bill. Although I love Asian food, I'm liking the Caribbean and western mix. Looks like this project is making a turn for the better!

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    Is the Gates brand that much better? The Ikea one has a Continental belt and cog. The article even states the difference is negligible to recreational and enthusiast riders, just top level track racers. I'm just tired of the amount of work put into maintaining my winter beater. No matter how...

    Toronto Yonge Sheppard Centre Renovations and Expansion | 123.13m | 35s | RioCan | BDP Quadrangle

    RioCan knows this generic approach will work in this area and is even betting $220,000,000 in renovations! With that type of investment, do you actually believe they don't know about the demographics of the area?! Please understand this, you aren't the only one living here and you are not...

    General cycling issues (Is Toronto bike friendly?)

    Have you looked at this? Hoping this will be my no-maintenance winter rider. http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/30326728/

    Toronto Yonge Sheppard Centre Renovations and Expansion | 123.13m | 35s | RioCan | BDP Quadrangle

    Unfortunately, it's the same old story all the time and all over the city. As the area gets more popular and expensive, the independents move to lower rent areas. I have mixed feeling about this. We'll eventually be sitting in our overpriced homes eating chain foods and expensive artisan...

    A Tim Hortons is a Tim Hortons is a Tim Hortons. They're all the same to me and all their coffee tastes watered down, no matter the location. The Sheppard Centre one is fine! It being called "the worst in Toronto" doesn't make sense at all since the franchisor inspects franchisees for...

    I'm willing to call a truce as long as you don't bring up Asians, Whites, Koreans, Persians, Chinese and Filipinos and paint them all in one brush. If you do, I will be calling you out on that!

    Toronto Yonge Sheppard Centre Renovations and Expansion | 123.13m | 35s | RioCan | BDP Quadrangle

    The take out customers are the ones that they value most and make most of their money from. The ones that linger are valuable in their own way, but nowhere near as equal. The Tim's at Finch station makes a killing!

    I was going to let your post go, but this annoys me. So what?! What have you got against Filipinos? How they talk? The Philippines is one of the most English-bilingual countries in the world! By the way you type, their English is probably better than yours (learn how to use punctuation)...

    You believe Timmy's would forgo all those office tower workers in the Sheppard Centre for the residents in Emerald Park? Nope. If they did, even though they have a loyal following, they risk their customers going to the 2nd Cup and McD's (both would be closer), especially on a rainy or snowy...

    No, it's kept up to date. The link URL indicates version number. The number changes every month or so. They're at version 14. Timmy's is at every corner downtown, sometimes even on separate floors of the same building, so its not surprising they're placing them so close to each other. I...

    Nope! Don't see them anymore. I'm basing my info from here (click on "Site Plan"): http://riocan.com/leasing-portfolio/property/sheppard-centre

    What's there not to believe? He lives there, you don't! I'd like you to YouTube the lobby and prove that there is no bikes being brought in. Actually, forget I said that, bc you probably would and annoy everyone around you!

    Chipotle and Basil Box are still committed so far, with Yonge St frontages. I'm curious who will take the second floor restaurant.
