    Time to get rid of the TTC

    Speaking of Broadway, the City of Vancouver had a presentation on it today. http://former.vancouver.ca/ctyclerk/cclerk/20121127/documents/rr1presentation.pdf

    TTC: Sheppard Subway Expansion (Speculative)

    I believe the final OMB hearing is due in Feb. for the Concord development. The main issue remaining is regarding having school land available for the TDSB and TDCSB.

    TTC: Sheppard Subway Expansion (Speculative)

    I was tempted to wear a party hat during my commute today. Sheppard also finally broke the 50,000 mark in ridership...that's both uplifting and depressing.

    Toronto Emerald City Phases 1 to 3 including Dream Tower | ?m | 36s | Almadev | WZMH

    Air rights over over the subway station would have been nice.

    Toronto Dragon Centre Condominiums | 92.15m | 28s | Shiu Pong | Kirkor Architects

    Probably means the CP line. It really doesn't look like a railroad from the mockup.

    TTC: Flexity Streetcars Testing & Delivery (Bombardier)

    It takes a hell of a lot of balls for for Van Loan to show up representing the federal government considering the feds provided no funding.

    TTC: Sheppard Subway Expansion (Speculative)

    My personal new favourite number is that the Spadina extension is expected to need a subsidy of $14.2 million a year yet Sheppard is the big money hole.

    TTC: Sheppard Subway Expansion (Speculative)

    Technically Sheppard wasn't included with the master agreement, it'll be done separately later.

    Skymark Plaza redev (3555 Don Mills Road, 34 + 28 + 25 + 7s, Brown + Storey) DEAD

    Wow 400 people turned out. I was expecting the NIMBY turn out but I wasn't expecting that much. It absolutely angers me that these types of people still complain about the increase to traffic. You're a short ride to Don Mills station and also have Finch station as an option. And it's not as if...

    Downtown Rapid Transit Expansion Study

    Also at Yonge&Sheppard a number of the properties are city owned and I bet the city is waiting to get a good price on the land vs encouraging office development. The land at the NW was leased out for 15 years to a small retail building since no one was interesting in buying the land for example...

    Downtown Rapid Transit Expansion Study

    My understanding of the use of the year 2031 is that it's based off the work from the Official Plan that was done back in the early 2000s. Since 30-year projections are the farthest distance that can be reliably predicted that places the year at 2031 (2001+30=2031). Since the Official Plan came...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    It's not a traffic infraction. It's a criminal offense under the Criminal Code of Canada.

    Toronto 88 Condos (Ei8hty8 Condos) | ?m | 35s | Minto Group | Rafael + Bigauskas

    NYCC approved the development this week. http://www.zuza.com/news-story/1312180-north-york-highrise-approved-in-parking-lot-beside-school-board/ Can't help but laugh at the fellow suggesting the building of more single family homes instead.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    It's the 12th largest municipality in the country and the 2nd largest in BC.

    Toronto Atria Condos (Alto, Trio, Parfait, Parkside) | 137.15m | 43s | Tridel | Turner Fleischer

    Saw an excavator getting unloaded in the morning and there's now a construction office trailer on site as well.

    Toronto Crosstown LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    How true. I remember the date being given as Summer earlier in the year.

    Metrolinx: Bombardier Flexity Freedom & Alstom Citadis Spirit LRVs

    I just hope my perceived narrowness isn't that much of an issue in a real world situation. Everything else I saw of the mockup at the CNE looked very nice.

    Toronto Tango at Concord Park Place | ?m | 31s | Concord Adex | P + S / IBI

    Think you might mean the 401 (at bottom left.)
