    Toronto Local at Fort York | 52.42m | 15s | Onni Group | P + S / IBI

    I don't believe that there is anything proposed by Onni at the moment. Since Local is now under construction we may hear about what their plans are sometime later this year. I'd imagine it would be similar in height to York Harbour Club to the west; maybe 15 to 17 storeys. That is the...

    Toronto Daniels Waterfront - City of the Arts | 156.05m | 45s | Daniels | RAW Design

    Well that's exciting news to hear that Sugar Beach is being extended north into this site with the granite pavers/maple leafs, and everything. Plus, RAW Design is always a good choice.

    Toronto 2265 Bloor West | 29.87m | 8s | Harrington | TACT Architecture

    Yes! Along with One and Two Old Mill, The High Park (Phases 1 and 2), and High Park Condominiums there are going to be quite a few new neighbours here. Now if only the Turner and Porter site can be redeveloped...

    Toronto Dundas Square Gardens | 156.05m | 50s | Gupta | IBI Group

    Yes :) Downtown east goes to the Don River/DVP...then it's the east end.

    Toronto Panda Condominiums | 107.59m | 30s | Lifetime | Turner Fleischer

    Agreed; that's my thoughts. According to the floorplans and renderings there is no tower in this scheme. This is a far easier proposal to get approved and developed and much sooner to bring in income. Plus, they may have plans to buy up other neighbouring properties over time for a...

    Toronto Panda Condominiums | 107.59m | 30s | Lifetime | Turner Fleischer

    Very cool. I love the rooftop patios :cool:

    952 Queen St W Renovations (Hullmark, 2s, Diamond Schmitt)

    Thanks for the rendering, AlbertC! I've been waiting for this one. Simple geometry. I like it so far.

    Toronto Backstage On The Esplanade | 116.73m | 36s | Cityzen | P + S / IBI

    I'm with AG above saying that it should be ready for occupancy by mid to end of 2015. This year would be next to impossible given that trades are spread a little thin across the city. Builder's letters are kind of meaningless, so don't even worry about them. The best thing to do is just to...

    Toronto Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    Aura looked really cool tonight with the moon. My photo doesn't do the scene justice: Feb 6th

    Toronto Core Condos | 84.12m | 24s | CentreCourt | P + S / IBI

    That's a rather broad and bold statement about the suburbs! But you are right about more people moving downtown doesn't necessarily mean, 'prettier public realm'. But that's the hope anyway. By doing some research about new BIA's plans and things like the John Street Cultural Corridor, you...

    Toronto Toronto City Hall and Nathan Phillips Square | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | Perkins&Will

    Don't get me wrong, I love McDonald's as a guilty pleasure. But this is City owned property and having Hero Burgers here makes more sense.

    Toronto Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    I think that a lot of people have a like-hate relationship with Aura. I'm kind of neutral about it right now until it's fully completed with rooftop lighting and all, but I'm partially siding with the 'like' side because I do think that it has added significantly to the city as a massive new...

    Toronto Toronto City Hall and Nathan Phillips Square | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | Perkins&Will

    I wasn't a fan of Hero Burgers...at first. Now I'm addicted lol. I feel that I'm not eating junk food lol :p The beef really does taste like 'beef'.

    Toronto Core Condos | 84.12m | 24s | CentreCourt | P + S / IBI

    Yes, Manhattan specifically. I'm old enough to recall Times Square being a dump when I was a kid (i.e. before Disney moved in). My point is that a lot of world travelers make positive comments about other cities and don't realize that we are getting there, too. While I understand the concerns...

    Toronto Core Condos | 84.12m | 24s | CentreCourt | P + S / IBI

    Yes, these projects will improve the neighbourhood. But know that Yorkville wasn't always 'Yorkville'. And I never thought that the Entertainment District (Clubland in the '90's) would ever be a good place to live until these past few years. But these things take time and patience. People...

    Toronto Southcore Financial Centre & Delta Toronto | 159.71m | 45s | GWL | KPMB

    The Delta is awesome sauce. Bremner Tower recedes in the background to give all the limelight to the Delta. I mean does anyone really notice Bremner Tower? I don't. I think that's a very good thing here.

    TCHC: West Don Lands Affordable Housing (589 King St E, 2x 4 + 8s, Core Architects)

    I like the design of the three structures, but anyone who comes to my place comments on what an awful choice of brick colour. I'm counting on Waterfront Toronto to do a bang-up job with the landscaping. And this Spring. Please.
