    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    Hazel has enjoyed a cult status for a long time, for some.

    Wow, I knew there were a lot.

    Toronto 160 Front West | 239.87m | 46s | Cadillac Fairview | AS + GG

    I'm jaded - all I ever see is the bulge.

    It may well be about prestige, but is there a real deciding factor about height as far as the City is concerned ? We've seen some levelling effect in the Entertainment District. I'm asking because I really don't know.

    .....really disappointing to witness.

    Planned Sprawl in the GTA

    Keep the pressure on this small 'pointed head' clique. The Government is clearly being assailed on many fronts with the Bill 23 fiasco. I believe there are many career civil servants within the various Ministries affected, ( 15 Ministries are required to report to the Environmental Registry, and...

    Toronto Concord Canada House | 231.97m | 74s | Concord Adex | Arcadis

    It's a monolithic nothing, dated before it's built. I suppose it will keep the barbarians out when the day comes.

    Agreed, but from an avowed skyline kind of guy, I think 10 more stories would have been better.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    Well, a lot of municipalities and AMO are coming out strongly against incursions on the Greenbelt and other blitz-like attacks on the Land Use Planning guidelines built up over decades. Who writes this stuff ? Perhaps, a few sycophantic staff remembered bits of disgruntled juvenilia and put it...

    Until they have to pick up the actual costs of development.

    Bill 23 , More Homes, Faster...with 20 EROs - is what can happen when you think you can do whatever the hell you want. You have to wonder who is putting this all together for the low-brows at Queens Park. There must be some pretty large consulting fees.

    That base is a fortress !

    Toronto Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    Agreed, and now we reap the dubious benefits of the 'majority' government. A leader with a conscience might actually feel chastened by the limited support the Tories actually received in the last election- just dreaming here.

    Toronto Scotiabank North Tower at Bay Adelaide Centre | 140.2m | 32s | Brookfield | KPMB

    Anti-human is the impression I get -expensive in-fill giving nothing back. Is this supposed to be modernist ? There is sadly less here than the classic " there's no there, there", and bleakly so.

    The Toronto Tree Thread

    Thanks for your good advice, as always. This property is a Managed Forest which I own and has been planted with native trees and bushes yearly to increase biodiversity. I love red oaks and dogwoods especially. Serviceberry is a great favourite for wildlife. Sadly, Autumn Olive was planted by the...

    The Toronto Tree Thread

    In 1985 I planted rows of maples along my long country driveway. Half were Norways and half were Sugars. The Norways have thrived, the Sugars not so well. Through the years, I came to understand that I'd made a mistake in planting Norway Maple for a couple of reasons. Compared to native Sugar...

    The Carpenters Union certainly didn't.
