Considering this use to be Lake Ontario, I'm surprised that there doesn't appear to be any water issues when digging here.

It's a perfectly crumulent word.

Might I suggest with this glass free views this is an excellent opportunity for some tilt shift photography.

Wait a minute... there was a recession?

The recently announced delays/postponement/cuts to transit expansion for the city by the McGuinty government makes one wonder how much longer the people of Toronto will blindly support a political party that takes them for granted. Had the province managed their finances better in good times the...

As predicted. http://urbantoronto.ca/showthread.php?11632-Article-Ont-Gov-t-building-at-880-Bay-at-Grosvenor-St-%28ORC-39s-WZMH%29&p=377736#post377736

To answer my own question it should be Davis. You can't skip over him to go to Harris and no other leader in the last thirty years is historically significant. Still you have to think that some bureaucrat would find it deliciously ironic to name a huge expansion of government office space at...

So what former Premier is going to get his name on this building? Ferguson, Hearst, Hepburn, Mowat, MacDonald, Whitney and Frost already have named buildings in the area. Personally I like the sound of Harris Block.;)

When its finished its going to look like it was always there and that's a good thing.

I find most pictures of Toronto from that decade make downtown look more suburban than Mississauga does today. There was at least as much surface parking lots.

There have been huge investments from both Queen's Park and Ottawa. What is really quite remarkable is the city succeeds despite the idiots at City Hall. Barbara Hall, Mel Lastman, David Miller...where to begin.

Yes but its not about controling the interior climate of a building or even the micro-climate of a city. It's about modifying the global climate. Its why they call it global warming or global climate change. Good Torontonians must do their part for mother earth by doing as little as they can to...

Was this the site of the first Parliament Buildings for Upper Canada or did the province step in and purchase the property? I can't remember how that whole issue was resolved.

I'm not liking Phase 2A. I don't like how it cuts up the space between the CN Tower and Rogers Centre.

Regardless of what you think of the colour, there is nothing else like it in Toronto. It will be striking and will in no way blend into surrounding buildings like so many other recent projects.

If it was cursed wouldn't it be at the ACC?

I would have thought Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment would own the trademark Maple Leaf Gardens.

Better than the Pepsi Forum If the preservation of the exterior matches the render that was released today this is as close to perfection as we can expect. Just look at what happened to the old Montreal Forum. It makes 10 Dundas Street East look beautiful by comparison.
