    Toronto Eaton Centre (Ongoing Renewal) | ?m | ?s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

    So, I must say something: why are some forum members so cold and snappy in their remarks? What Dev said is completely reasonable and even if there are alternatives (in this case, going outside), what is wrong with what he said (being relieved there is another passage)? Most of the remarks like...

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

    Unfortunately, I don't think it will matter in terms of hoping for a creative/new design for the building as it seems this building will be a blue box (like the two prior buildings), except for that it'll be shorter; essentially, it'll be a Southcore-type box. What does interest me a bit is who...

    Toronto Union Park | 303.26m | 58s | Oxford Properties | Pelli Clarke Pelli

    Hi, so is there a confirmation on how many towers there will be on this site and what the mix is (i.e. one office, one hotel, one residential - either rental or condo)? I really hope these new office tower proposals materialize...they are the jewel of our downtown crown! :)

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

    Hi, out of curiosity, net-net, factoring the above, is there a change to the number of floors (total space) BMO now takes up at FCP? Thanks.

    Toronto Spectra at Concord CityPlace | 123.13m | 39s | Concord Adex | RAW Design

    The Spectra tower looks worse than most of the other buildings at Cityplace because of its excessive use of cheap looking spandrels despite the increased use of color. This Spectra tower looks like one of the (ugly) Liberty Village condo towers!

    Markham Aviva Canada | ?m | 12s | Remington Group | BDP Quadrangle

    Hi, not to make this thread about other topics of conversation but why is Enbridge moving that many people to Houston? Is it the usual consolidation of office staff? So many companies have done that since 2008! :( And I didn't know that Enbridge had that many people in Scarborough. I feel so...

    Markham Aviva Canada | ?m | 12s | Remington Group | BDP Quadrangle

    Imagine if they leased this in a downtown Toronto office building such as the office tower near the Ice Towers (16 York)? That would be so cool...yet another tower added to the core but instead they choose suburban Markham.... :(

    Erin Mills Expansion & Cineplex Junxion | 14.75m | 1s | OPB | MMC Architecture

    I am still not very clear on whether there is going to be an expansion to this mall (in total square feet) or is it just a renovation? If it's being expanded, does anyone know the exact increase in space? If not, I wonder why as the Peel area continues to grow in population and there is...

    Toronto Richmond Adelaide Centre: EY Tower | 188.05m | 40s | Oxford Properties | Kohn Pedersen Fox

    The tower's almost done and E&Y is expected to move into the building in the spring! :)

    Toronto One Bloor East | 257.24m | 76s | Great Gulf | Hariri Pontarini

    Hi, Not to turn this discussion about elevators but I thought I would give my experiences: I've lived in a Liberty Village condo (for two years) and now am in a Bay Street condo (for the last one year) and the number of units/elevator is about 80 for each of these buildings (3 elevators for...

    Toronto L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    Well, may be some of the forumers may like you to force them to take pics for you! :) (By the way, I'm not one of them.)

    Toronto Backstage On The Esplanade | 116.73m | 36s | Cityzen | P + S / IBI

    Yes, in a couple of months it'll be ready. Are you planning to buy a unit there? Just kidding! It'll take two years or so before it becomes occupiable....as there are 34-odd floors of completion still left!

    Toronto St Regis Toronto Hotel and Residences | 281.93m | 58s | JFC Capital | Zeidler

    True, however, the tower on the exterior still looks so bad, such as mismatched glass panes, awkward-placed ventilation panels on the east side, the crows-nest issue at the top plus the malfunctioning light, amongst other concerns, that we will always be able to make fun of this tower's...

    Toronto Bay Adelaide Centre | 217.92m | 51s | Brookfield | KPMB

    Can we still hold out hope that Bay Adelaide III will be different in its shape or is it too late for that? I emailed Brookfield twice to get more insight but as i expected, there was no response. From what I remember Bay Adelaide III is supposed to be a box and that too only at 28-32 storeys...

    Transit Fantasy Maps

    TheTigerMaster, thanks! And exactly andrewpmk, how is the Laird to Don Mills portion going to work out if the frequencies are so high (90 seconds) during rush hours. There will definitely be a bottleneck for all modes of transport at Leslie. Yet another solid reason for having a grade separated...

    Hi, Just to confirm, there are going to be two frequencies of LRTs on Eglinton, with one being every 90 seconds and the other being every 180 seconds (during rush hour)? Which stations would be covered with the 90 seconds frequency? Are there going to be extra platforms at each...

    Toronto RBC WaterPark Place III | 140.2m | 30s | Oxford Properties | WZMH

    Hi, out of curiosity, what do you dislike about the Navy Pier? And in which ways is Toronto's waterfront better/nicer than Chicago's asides from their highway? Thanks.

    Richmond Hill Yonge Line 1 North Subway Extension | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Hi, I haven't had a chance to go through everything but just thought I would put the following out there to gauge responses from forum members: I'm wondering if there are plans to improve the links between the different lines that are proposed and/or are under construction to provide a more...
