multipurpose stadiums are awful. their only benefit is they can hold a multitude of events and provide an acceptable experience. i'd rather a single purpose stadium that provides an exceptional experience. that being said, i wouldn't be surprised if they build out bmo the way they have been...

i don't think that's true. the 500 level seats and the 100 level seats are the same with the exception a few seats behind the dish with cushions in the 100 and 200 level....unless you're talking about putting a Rogers Centre Sticker over the SkyDome sticker as an update?

the big problem for me here is it's literally at Yonge & Bloor where 2 major retail streets intersect and 2 major subway lines intersect. This is the place where you approve height increases. it's here, this very spot.

this is so flawed. the design is nice but it's right next to the LRT so i can't understand the parking situation. We boast about the need to intensify but you can't keep intensifying with this car focus. 708 units and 858 parking spots and only 366 bike parking? that's ridiculous. i hope...

i would LOVE if Yonge street was pedestrianized. it's got the density for it.

i wonder what the repercussions are for this. I imagine there's a penalty though it's not clear. I had a feeling since 2020 they weren't going to move in there. with their hybrid WFH model, their existing space is now good enough with some light renos. The tech crash seems like it was icing...

i can't imagine underground parking being that close to the lake a good idea. when i lived at NXT (103 & 105 The Queensway), our parking had 4 levels underground and was leaking like crazy and needed major major repairs. coincidentally, all the other condos around our build had above grade...

i'm not a fan of this for the obvious popular reasons but aside from that, i don't like all the concrete walkways, it seems barren to me. I get there's a lot of foliage on the sides but all the renders show some pretty low ground cover and shrubs. I'd like to see more of a forest vibe with...

great shot. i miss eating at Hue's. i liked it there. I miss Roy Square even more. I like 1BE but i also think Toronto needs more pedestrian lanes with little cafes and eateries.

shitty question, but what happens with the outhouse that high up? do they empty it from there with a pump or do they just send the whole thing down with a crane and a new one up? I work in marketing in an office and have zero experience with construction or outhouses. I wonder about these things!

these kitchens look identical to the Tridel Ten York kitchens

or live in condos. you can easily prep and make serious high quality meals for families. all the counter things (aside from a coffee maker) are gimmicks. you don't need a stand mixer, you don't need a deep fryer, a bread maker, a food processor. You can buy a small hand emulsion blender...

that traffic bottleneck gives me anxiety

phase 2 of the renovations ( the 100 level) hasn't even been unveiled now. Also, people are talking about a new stadium 10 years from now. I don't think that's realistic. these renos are going to take 3 years (initially 2, but probably 4). Shapiro has admitted this is a MASSIVE renovation...

i don't know the rules around it but i would think the area is too dense for an implosion

me and that BMO had many late nights together years ago while visiting the friendly establishment to the west. i'd wake up and be like "i spent that much? oh no"

i meant the private ones in the NW corner but yea the amenity area is beautiful. i think the pool could be a bit bigger even if the shape is less sexy. I prefer the function. those private balconies though are a great size. I remember when i lived in a condo, my balcony held a wal-mart $89...

those 1BE Terraces are beautiful, though they've lost their afternoon sun.

this is the silliest thing. they can change the name whenever they want. the focus here is the construction. Plus, i read a while back that they're open to shopping the naming rights around. It's more revenue for Rogers since they own the team anyways. I wouldn't be surprised if a bank or...

i feel like their last focus with regards to these funds they've allocated is the exterior. they're trying to spruce up the game day and viewing experience. they can easily spend their total budget on the inside (which makes sense and has the most impact). The grounds outside can use some...
