    Toronto Living Shangri-La Toronto | 214.57m | 66s | Westbank | James Cheng

    How would you change Ontario's high school curriculum?

    I would introduce a mandatory course on basic personal finances and banking. It astounds me how many people are clueless when it comes to investing, borrowing and even basic banking. Something everybody has to deal with in their lives, and very important!

    Toronto Festival Tower and tiff Lightbox | 156.96m | 42s | Daniels | KPMB

    This project, along with Maple Leaf Square, are two of the best high density big city new developments in Toronto. Too bad Metropolis/Toronto Life Square didn't end up as something like this.

    TD Bank in the Northeastern USA (including New York)

    There are five TD branches in Toronto that have the free coin machines (as a trial test) - can't remember where they all are, but one is at the Danforth and Coxwell branch. It is free to be used by clients and non-customers alike.

    Reuters: Some shrinking U.S. cities find splendor in green

    TD Bank in the Northeastern USA (including New York)

    I have visited a number of TD Bank "stores" recently in Washington, Boston and Philadelphia and I must say they are beautiful locations, particularly the old Commerce branches – much nicer than your average TD Canada Trust branch here in the GTA. Many of the TD branches in Canada will be...

    Art Deco in Toronto

    The original Toronto Stock Exchange on Bay St is quite nice - especially the trading floor. The demolished Odeon Cinema on Carlton is probably Toronto's greatest Deco/Moderne loss.

    Best Skyline Other Than Toronto In Canada

    Montreal has a far more interesting skyline - Vancouver is too homogenous. I do like Vancouver's density, however. Calgary screams PoMo wannabe big city new money nightmare. Mississauga and Niagara Falls shouldn't even be on the list - REAL cities, please!
