How long till Concord's signature plumbing spontaneously bursts here? Or did it already happen and I just missed it?

People in the city have been going crazy with the current stretch of rehabilitation work, but they havent seen anything. Hope everyone has their popcorn ready for Phase 4.

Well I mean to be fair, it's not like Cadillac Fairview is going to get started on their grand piece de resistance anytime soon. That's unless they successfully beg....I mean "lobby" the province on land use changes. Which they will probably, unfortunately get. Enbridge's building will...

As i've said before, friends never let friends buy into Concord builds. What an embarrassment.

It's a Metrolinx project, so Metrolinx designs will be used.

Well I mean it's Toronto, the city and province couldnt care less about it's history. If it wasnt for the National Historical designation, the whole Distillery District probably would've been hacked up by sterile condos already.

According to Olivia Chow, the name of the community centre is temporary. It's going to be given an Aboriginal name eventually. TBD but we may very well see the longest name ever here....

As long as the Ontario Government (all parties really) continue to be in bed with developers, there wont be any change to what we're seeing unfortunately.

Massive pour happening all day today stretching into the evening. Expect some...changes happening soon.

Well i mean this area isnt in the core, it certainly isnt Manhattan either. The thing is, we're not creating more employment land in TOronto. What we have is already the max, we need employment land scattered all around the city. To have it concentrated in fewer and fewer zones, you're just...

Because: a) It sets a wrong precedent when there's already swaths of land which can be developed for higher density purposes. Once you lose employment land, you can never get it back. b) The existing land/building can be modified to accommodate vast forms of employment uses. c) Mixed-use...

Ah yes, let's go propose removing Core Employment zoned lands, when there are swaths of single family homes fronting major arterials all throughout the city. This should be rejected to the fullest extent possible; shouldnt be considered for 1 second, and needs to be put in the trash and...

It's Metrolinx, do you think they would actually honour that kind of promise, especially after Verster left? I dont even think they even remember it themselves.

That "promise" is no longer in play.

Even the bear is out there waiting for the Crosstown train...with nothing in sight.

This fantasy...erm i mean "project"... isnt even in the municipal best interests of the city it's being proposed for. I assure everyone that nobody in Canada gives a flying yahoo about this joke of a proposal.

This thing aint opening in October that's for sure.

Let's take an over/under on how long it takes before this lighting "feature" goes innto a permanent state of disrepair and ends up looking like unmitigated garbage. I say 6 months.

Extracted from the above article (italicized): Graywood's strategic entry into BTR is the result of years of preparation, including proactive site assessments and due-diligence to evaluate project viability under both for-rent and for-sale models. As a fully integrated organization, Graywood...

Except for the fact that the Scarborough Extension is delayed also. I suspect the Ontario Line wont be far behind either when the ultimate cock-up contractor begins on their part of the project.
