    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    Shaw St from Dupont to Dewson is subject to change with the upcoming resurfacing. The city is using this as an opportunity to improve cycling infrastructure here by changing traffic flow...

    Toronto 888 Dupont | 61.7m | 18s | TAS | SA

    I live in the area, so this is definitely a welcoming change.

    Liberty Village pedestrian link

    Aaahhh... it is finally completed after 13 years. Toronto - where infrastructure moves at snail pace.

    Toronto East Harbour | 214.2m | 65s | Cadillac Fairview | Adamson

    This is crazy exciting. A brand new transit hub and arguably a second downtown, something that Yonge & Eg should have been. Hopefully this actually pans out though.

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Are there any plans for development immediately around GO rail stations? I feel like it's a huge missed opportunity to not have higher density developments in those areas. It would aid with building out a true downtown or city centre and centralize business and entertainment. I believe there...

    Toronto 315 Spadina | 46.29m | 13s | Podium | Montgomery Sisam

    It's a shame what Chinatown is turning into. These types of neighbourhoods (Koreatown included) are really beginning to lose those their character.

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Despite all of the delays, seeing actual progress like this has been amazing. I go through this section every day for work and the flow with this new tunnel is night and day. Hopefully they can maintain the cleanliness.

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

    You know what'd I'd like to see? A mini neighbourhood, designed around pedestrians and small business -- give me a Venice, Ontario. THINK. BIGGER. TORONTO. All jokes aside though, I'd love it if the city thought more outside the box with prime real estate like this.

    Yonge Street Revitalization (Downtown Yonge BIA/City of Toronto)

    I think the most important thing is widening the sidewalks. Then, reducing the car lanes to 1 or 2 lanes, either 1 or 2 way. I think if we want this area to be for pedestrian, shipping/delivery will need to have access to supply the restaurants and stores. So maybe some sections with more...

    York United FC Stadium/National Soccer Training Facility (at Woodbine Racetrack)

    The more I think about this, the more I'm convinced the team should aim for a permanent structure at VMC. It would certainly help with traveling fans from Toronto. Plus, Vaughan has a huge chunk of the York Region population and is surely going to be the region's major transportation and...

    VIA Rail

    I did a bunch of day trips in Spain recently (from Sevilla, Granada, and Barcelona) and I have to say that Renfe and the Spanish systems work wonders. Security checks were done prior to boarding in Barcelona with luggage scanners, security personnel and more. But the entire process took 5-10...

    Neighbourhoods defined by architectural style

    I began traveling more recently and have noticed that when visiting places like Barcelona or Lisbon, the architecture truly brings you into a new world. With each neighbourhood, the buildings, streetscape and activities all work together to tell a cohesive story. In Toronto, it's a bit...

    Toronto 170 Spadina | 46.94m | 12s | Plaza | BDP Quadrangle

    What a waste of an lane way. Would have been amazing if businesses had entrances there.

    Toronto Ontario Line 3 | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I really hope this is underground subway with subway stock, not some glorified streetcar line. Then again, I'm too hopeful and this may never actually be built.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    The readers are really iffy. Sometimes they work, sometimes the don't. I got on the bus this morning and 3-4 people, including myself, weren't able to tap on either at the front or back. It wasn't until my wife tapped her card on the back that it, for some reason, allowed the rest of us to tap...

    Waterfront Transit Reset Phase 1 Study

    I'm sorry, I'm kind of new to all of this. But if I am reading/understanding this correctly, the plan is to extend the Queens Quay streetcar to the east + have automated people mover from the current Jack Layton Ferry stop connect to Union?

    That southwest view is primo, I tell ya. Primo.

    King Street (Streetcar Transit Priority)

    Again, if a bunch people are having this issue and more continue to experience it as well, then the problem isn't the driver but the rules/system.

    Toronto Seneca College: Centre for Innovation, Technology, and Entrepreneurship (CITE) | 18.59m | 5s | Seneca College | Perkins&Will

    It looks very... institutional, if you know what I mean. Almost like a health centre of sorts.

    Toronto Garrison Crossing (was Fort York Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge) | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | Pedelta

    Crazy, to think we first started talking about this almost 10 years ago. A bridge.
