Wow! Thanks for sharing those pictures. This is a spectacular development. If only First Captial/Tridel work out a deal with the City of Toronto to build this at Westwood lands or Bloor and Islington. FCR can sell Humbertwon and use the money to purchase the other lands discussed above. Wishful...

I am all for taller buildings and new developments that are less Suburbish and more Urban as long as it makes sense in terms of traffic, good location/accessibility. I hate it when NIMBY complain or argue the fact that the tall building will block their sun from "1pm to 2pm". That is a stupid...

Maybe I am not good at reading or viewing proposal documentation from developers. But from what I thought I was looking at, it seemed to me as another Shops at Don Mills kind of thing (Commerical & Residential Mixed use with an Open-air mall style). Anyways, accessibility will be a factor for...

BTW, I am not a NIMBY. I am a Condo Owner and I live a good 5 minutes from Humbertown. However, my Girlfriend lives there and I carpool with her everyday. Believe me when I say this, turning left or right onto Royal York during rush hour is a nightmare, especially when most of the residential...

Traffic issues, currently, is bad as it is on Royal York. Imagine a development of this proportion. You will need at least 2 lanes both ways on Royal York from Eglington to Queensway to be able to handle the new traffic. Also, you will need to consider accessibility from non locals. No one from...

100% agreed. The posters who are for this development are most likely not familiar with the area or don't go through the area much often. This type of development would go great in areas such as Bloor and Islington or Westwood Theatre Lands. I do think that Humbertown existing strip mall...

On a side note, I was in the area yesterday and noticed a lot of new Restaurants and Shops. I also noticed that the Coffee Time is for sale, so hopefully it will be replaced with a higher quality Coffee franchise.

Not sure if this proposed development makes sense for this area. There are two main arteries that feed into that area. Royal York & The Kingsway. These two roads are one lane only (both ways). Royal York is already a mess during rush hour, especially when you’re stuck behind a bus or a senior...

How so?

It is disappointing. I do enjoy Condo ownership but I would really love to have a house in the near future with a nice backyard to share with friends and family. My backup plan was to buy in Hamilton but even the prices there have skyrocketed (in decent neighborhoods). Even though it is still...

It sounds like Tim Horton's is the next Coffee Time.

Toronto Core is beautiful. Someone completely disagreeing with that is just arguing for the sake of arguing. However, I do agree Toronto is ugly once you leave the core (York Region, Central Scarborough, Weston, North Etobicoke, etc...). Personally, I feel that I live and work in the ugliest...
