Maybe people should just not commute daily between London and Toronto because that is an absurd distance for any commuter without a private jet? It's an equal distance to commute to Detroit every day. The reason it's so difficult to take the train from London to Toronto and back every day is...

Locals may get too attached to the parking lot. "It's so convenient when we have guests over!" It's a no-win scenario, but one can hope this becomes a paid lot so it can at least generate some revenue for Waterfront in the meantime?

I think that they already plan to concentrate development on Line 1. I'm talking when they start to get into the finer grain details, making the Line 1-4 interchange station as the primary hub compared to Downsview Park and Wilson makes sense. As someone who has used the Barrie GO line...

As someone who has never really been on Sheppard east of Fairview Mall, I have no real insight as to whether 2A or 2B is better, but I agree that it definitely is superior to 1 and 3 for the development potential west of Yonge. Glad to see the West extension is being considered, and hopefully...

I think this thread was a lost cause from the jump. The title alone betrays the agenda: it's not about Via service outside of the corridor, it's about a "lack of meaningful" service. Who exactly defines what meaningful service is? And why are so many of the discussions around connecting one...

Not to mention Mönchengladbach also has the population of Sudbury and Thunder Bay combined.

I love that the dumb staircase terraces are gone from the north wing of the building. Took out a lot of usable space for little reason.

Barrie needs a university campus if you ask me. Something that will bring more life to the city than sleazy nightclubs and chain restaurants. It would also have a more populous catchment area than Sarnia, with the explosive growth in Simcoe County and northern York Region. Would it support a...

I'm underwhelmed. Should have another 5-8 storey midrise along Neyagawa instead of rear frontage of townhouses. If the 407 Transitway is going to become a reality, there should be a way to make use of a potential Neyagawa station.

I, for one, am glad that the City took my advice and chose Wawatesi. A victory for sensibility. Just kidding, I feel nothing. Let's just move on to the next new park and hope for something that doesn't try to be something it's not....

...the Stouffville line opened in 1892? That must be back when Old Elm was just Elm.

529 out of 726 units are less than two bedrooms... that's almost 3/4. I have a feeling that this is going to be a matter of debate. I like the inclusion of that SFH, though. It has a lot of yard space to make use of.

I've been through it a couple of times. It was a little slow to get through the first time, when it was still very new, but other than that I think it works fine. I'm hoping that eventually we'll get one at Mapleview Drive here in Barrie - that interchange is complete chaos right now, and I...

Pickering Airport Monorail!

They're not actually censoring anything. Large swaths of Toronto are being erased because "frankly, they need to get off their high horse".

Understandable, I suppose. There are much more accessible plazas to redevelop, so I'd imagine Humbertown was an easy choice to postpone with limited funds. At least the Edenbridge is being finished and no part of the property will be left vacant.

Might snap some pictures this evening if it's not too dark out.

Red paint does not a BRT make. Especially for a city like Brampton that has much higher standards for its public transit. (Whether it meets those standards is a question for another thread.)

I find it pretty rich that the River Park "pays homage" to a river buried in the area by... keeping it covered with hardscaping and adding a token trickle through the site. So far my favourite is Wàwàtesí, if only because it has a large vegetated area as the centerpiece. However, they all kind...

It would be cool if they opened Finch West and Eglinton at the same time, so they only have to update the system map once.
