The parkette could use a revamp. It's lacking... something. Anything, really.

Eglinton—Lawrence PC MPP Robin Martin announced she's not running for re-election. The Liberals finished a close second in the riding in 2022, and have nominated ex-Paul Martin/John Tory staffer Vince Gasparro as their candidate for the next election.

You haven't talked to my dad in North York or relatives in Aurora, Markham and London!

Ford will start going after streetcars and at-grade LRT lines.

Shameful. Via Twitter (currently links to 404 site)

I would definitely support a BRT on Queensway or Royal York. Hell, given the amount of development, an LRT could be in order, too.

If the maximum height is 50 metres, is the site even economically viable for development? Are we looking at an annual Spirit Halloween shop?

How does the density for McCleary compare to Villiers?

Well said. I think it's a great project that will add a lot to the strip.

Like Villiers Island, @AlexBozikovic gives the thumbs down to the McCleary District plan. On the waterfront, Toronto fumbles its plans for another new neighbourhood https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/toronto/article-on-the-waterfront-toronto-fumbles-its-plans-for-another-new/?login=true...

Whoops. I meant Burlington in my first sentence! Your point taken.

Overall, I'm supportive of the proposal. Solid density, new affordable housing and a much better use of the site than a big box gym. Having said that, I hope future residents brace for the brutal traffic congestion at Keele and Dundas during rush hour, and I don't use the word brutal loosely.

Brampton, like Oakville, have been significantly pushing for development in their "new downtowns" next to their GO Stations, while quashing high-rise development in their older downtown areas, although Burlington has seen some exceptions.

This could just be election posturing. The Ontario PCs are looking to pick up three Niagara Region seats currently held by the NDP.

While we've lost more iconic modern buildings, this one still hurts. A shame it can't at the very least be integrated into a new development.

P.A.M.'s Coffee and Tea had many locations in Toronto in the 90s, including storefront locations in The Beaches and Danforth. The last Toronto location appears to have been Albion Mall (now closed), and there was a Hamilton location until around 2013 according to their defunct Facebook page.

There's been a trend of thousands of Swifties who can't attend the concerts, or attending the concert on another date, to congregate outside the venues. https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/c6ppyq80vp5o

$30 is madness for anything served on a tray.

LOL. My bet is that we're going to see traffic congestion at an unprecedented level. Swifties don't strike me as the type of people who use public transit.

From Saturday.
