    Toronto 155 Redpath Condominiums | 120.39m | 34s | Freed | a—A

    Totally agree, WislaHD. I park on Redpath occasionally (usually to grab some Banjara) and there's lots of pedestrians about. Think in 5 years when all the towers are built out on Roehampton, Broadway and Erskine. There's no access to Eglinton between Yonge and Mt. Pleasant other than Redpath...

    Toronto Ten York Street Condos | 224.02m | 65s | Tridel | Wallman Architects

    18-400? Pfft. All you need is a 35mm prime, according to Ken Rockwell. :)

    Toronto eCondos | 195.67m | 58s | Bazis | Rosario Varacalli

    It wouldn't surprise me. The condo market is strong, plus the recently announced rent control rules have turned developers off in a big way from building rentals.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT: Eglinton Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    The 4-year timeline is a revised one. It was supposed to be finished in 2020, but the schedule was extended by a year in 2015. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/transportation/2015/09/24/eglinton-crosstown-to-open-a-year-later-than-expected.html

    Toronto The Well | 174.03m | 46s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    I don't think I've ever seen a site with six excavators working at the same time. Marvelous.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT: Eglinton Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    They are not messing around. Every station going up (down?) in mid-town is a total beehive of activity. Good to see solid progress. Only 4 more years, girls and boys!

    East York-Old East York

    Finally got to try Pho Challenge. Quite good. Decent depth to the broth and good beef. Lots of noodles. Talk about a real family-run establishment!

    Costco (42-46 Overlea Boulevard) Demolition of Heritage Building, Former Coca-Cola HQ

    Stuff is definitely happening on the site. Drove by last week and new equipment has arrived and there were large piles of gravel that I haven't seen before. What's the deal with the gas station as of now? Are they proceeding with it right away or do they still have to do the traffic study?

    Thanks for the review of Pho Challenge. My wife and I both like Thai and Vietnamese and are always looking for new spots. We tried Pho Thien Phat on Don Mills near Overlea, and while the bun was ok, the pho was not very flavourful. Not bad, just lacking depth. Little Coxwell is still the family...

    Toronto 101 Erskine Condos | 106.07m | 32s | Tridel | CS&P

    Did they learn nothing from 300 Front Street? Didn't think it was possible, but this is even worse. I suppose decent balcony glass might soften the blow, like it did at 300 Front, but this is shockingly poor.

    Costco (42-46 Overlea Boulevard) Demolition of Heritage Building, Former Coca-Cola HQ

    Nope. Still nothing. Same with the Walmart site on Laird. Not sure what's the holdup.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT: Eglinton Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Why is such a large chunk of the north-east corner cordoned off? Nothing is happening.

    Toronto Upper East Village | 75.15m | 21s | Camrost-Felcorp | Arcadis

    Not a single 3-bedroom unit in the entire complex at a time when the average house has become completely unaffordable to young couples. Where are people supposed to raise their families?

    Toronto Richmond Adelaide Centre: EY Tower | 188.05m | 40s | Oxford Properties | Kohn Pedersen Fox

    Cool! Is that in season two? We're just working our way through season one. Looking forward to seeing the T.O. skyline.

    Move-in date for E&Y is in May, last I heard.

    Toronto e2 at ePlace | 156.56m | 46s | Capital Developments | TACT Architecture

    If it isn't the small condo, which one's 39 Roehampton? There's no other buildings between the E condos site and 41. Metropia may have bought out each of the condo owners at a big markup. When one of my clients bought up some detached houses near Mt. Pleasant for a development, the owners got...

    Toronto e2 at ePlace | 156.56m | 46s | Capital Developments | TACT Architecture

    41 is that single detached brick building used as an office, according to GoogleMaps. 39 must be that goofy-looking 4-storey buiding right next to it. It's going to be pretty tight against the E Condos site.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT: Leaside Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    I'm a Leasider and I'm OK with it not being called Leaside station. It does border on Davisville and Lawrence Park. Bayview makes the most sense, with the current Sheppard subway station renamed to Bayview Village Station.

    Toronto Richmond Adelaide Centre: EY Tower | 188.05m | 40s | Oxford Properties | Kohn Pedersen Fox

    According to a client who's an EY partner, the move-in date for them is May. So lots of interior work still left to do.

    If anyone tries the pho place, let us know. I'm curious. If I have time for a jaunt over, I'll give it a shot. It's more in my periphery than Little Coxwell.
