    Toronto TOOR Hotel / The 203 Residences on Jarvis | 108.2m | 32s | Manga | Arcadis

    Hotels in the area are nothing new though: The Grand, next door, was recently torn down and another hotel/condo is being built, and the Hilton Garden Inn was replaced by Dundas Square Gardens.

    Jarvis and Dundas

    POP Coffee is now home to The Anarchist. In addition to serving and selling POP coffee (and some others), there is also a selection of anti-capitalist books, art etc. And there's a very nice patio! It also looks like J-San finally has a competitor in takeaway Japanese: Tenda Sushi is opening up...

    Moss Park / Queen & Sherbourne

    This is fantastic news! They've moved around a few times since the Bay St. location closed, but are clearly keen on staying in the East end.

    Problematic Park Design - Why Some Parks Don't Work

    Wow. I ride up Church St. all the time and actually had no idea there was an entire park behind the 519. I'm also realizing that I've somehow combined the north and south sections into one, single space. The entire area has always felt generally 'unsafe' to me, and apparently my brain just...

    St Lawrence Market

    The Butter Chicken Roti at King and Sherbourne had their door smashed-in too. From my experience over the last while in a nearby neighbourhood people seem to be smashing things just for the hell of it. I assume mental health or drug issues etc. and I'm not sure what can be done about it. If...

    Toronto Grand Hotel Redevelopment | 153.95m | 49s | Amexon | Core Architects

    Goodbye mural, from the looks of it. How unfortunate, it's currently the best thing in the neighbourhood.

    Toronto St Lawrence Market North | 25.3m | 5s | City of Toronto | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    The city reps described the catenary lighting as being thin, unobtrusive and 'star-like', but there was some hesitancy from at least one of the workshop participants, especially about what they'd look like during the daylight hours. I believe someone may have compared them to a tangle of...

    Toronto St Lawrence Market North | 25.3m | 5s | City of Toronto | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    No, as per one of the city reps who spoke at the most recent community workshop, the tables shown behind Biagio in the plan reflect the restaurant's private patio and are not part of the park redesign - the image is misleading. They were also very clear that the decision not to include...

    Toronto St Lawrence Market North | 25.3m | 5s | City of Toronto | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    So those windows on the south side: at the moment they're a wall of grey and remind me of something you'd find in a suburban office park. They'll look ... better once the building is complete, right?

    That glazing is a trypophobic's nightmare.

    Jarvis and Dundas

    Looks like the neighbourhood will be getting a third dental office, this time in one of the retail spaces in Max condos at 81 Mutual. There's already one around the corner in Pace and another in the Merchandise building on Mutual. Chef Kareema's Caribbean at Dundas and George St closed at the...

    Pickering Pickering City Centre | 174m | 55s | CentreCourt | Diamond Schmitt

    Anyone else remember when this used to be the Sheridan Mall?

    Toronto TMU: Science Building | 92m | 14s | Toronto Metropolitan University | Henning Larsen

    Looks like they’re drilling for soil samples in the parking lot today. At least I assume that’s what they’re doing with a drill and barrels.

    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    That does seem really inconvenient; I assume most cyclists will continue along Commissioners regardless. Does this mean they're finally doing something about that awful four-stage crossing over Lakeshore E and Cherry?

    Toronto 88 North (88 Queen East) | 90.52m | 27s | St Thomas Dev | Arcadis

    Giant curtain tracks? (I've been wondering about those too)

    St. James Park Revitalization (PMA Landscape Architects)

    They tagged the playground equipment too. Unfortunately it was only a matter of time 🙁

    Problematic Park Design - Why Some Parks Don't Work

    Happy to see the planting has gone in! Slightly off-topic, but does anyone know if the water feature is still going to be built? Is that blue and yellow wall mural temporary?

    Looks like Plug Canna6is got their license after all, signs are going up in the old Mutual St. Deli space. Meh.
