    Hamilton Confederation GO Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx

    I understand the anti-car sentiment, but the use case here is a commuter train. And time is precious for the vast majority of commuters. And the vast majority of commuters have cars and are well-served by having those cars. And the reality for Hamilton in general is that you are much better...

    Hamilton Confederation GO Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx

    Hamilton GO Centre, West Harbour, Burlington GO, Renforth Transitway, Union Station (among many others, I imagine) all have homeless people in them regularly.

    Hamilton Confederation GO Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx

    The trip from Hamilton to Clarkson GO is pretty much the same path as the GO train, so any time savings from driving are probably pretty minimal. Even with the Skyway traffic, there will probably be like a 10-15 minute time savings for many East Enders to drive to Burlington rather than...

    Hamilton Confederation GO Station | ?m | 1s | Metrolinx

    Does anyone know if this station will have any kind of express trains? It's a lot faster to drive to Burlington Station from here than to take the train around the lake to West Harbour and Aldershot before reaching Burlington.

    Hamilton Holiday Inn Express and Staybridge Suites Hamilton | ?m | 6s | Vrancor Development

    Thanks for the pictures. Both the site and the construction to date do not look big enough to accommodate a Holiday Inn Express to me. In which direction will the front of the building be oriented?

    Hamilton FirstOntario Centre Renovations | ?m | 4s | OVG | BBB

    Yep. Either one of the buildings can be considered a centre and either one can be considered a concert hall.

    Hamilton FirstOntario Centre Renovations | ?m | 4s | OVG | BBB

    OVG has frequently referred to the CFG Bank Arena project when discussing Hamilton. They spent a ton of money there, but what is a bit concerning to me is that they pretty much kept the old video board and did not even add LED ribbons around the arena. Apparently, this was because that venue is...

    Hamilton FirstOntario Centre Renovations | ?m | 4s | OVG | BBB

    Re-posting from SSP, as I cannot tell what the overlap is between the viewership of the two sites... Just imagine what even a modest new videoboard alone would do for this place. The current one is so shabby and out-of-date and small and has such poor resolution --- I doubt that there is one in...

    Hamilton FirstOntario Centre Renovations | ?m | 4s | OVG | BBB

    It is such a serious amount of money that I still struggle to believe that this will actually happen. The extensive multi-year Rogers Centre/SkyDome renovations are costing $300 million (if they do not go over budget).

    Hamilton McMaster Graduate Student Residence | 97.9m | 30s | Knightstone | Diamond Schmitt

    The escarpment is clearly a bit too high. It is ruining the views of the skyline in some of Lake Ontario's pics above.

    Hamilton King William Urban Rentals | 97.56m | 30s | LIUNA | Graziani + Corazza

    Oh, gotcha! Looks like a proposal for a proposal.

    Hamilton King William Urban Rentals | 97.56m | 30s | LIUNA | Graziani + Corazza

    I don't see anything in the Spectator about the Tivoli...

    Hamilton FirstOntario Centre Renovations | ?m | 4s | OVG | BBB

    I can see that as well. Hopefully the project goes through.

    Hamilton 73 Hughson Street North | ?m | 41s | Core Development | McCallum Sather

    That sounds insane. Would love to know how you arrived at that count. Is there a source/list that you can share?
