    Burlington Millcroft Towns | ?m | 3s | Branthaven Homes

    Looks like most of the units have people in them now. Cars in driveways, lights turning on and off at night, people coming and going, etc.

    Hamilton 304 Main Street East | 88.55m | 25s | CT REIT | Arcadis

    Yeah I really love this proposal but no retail is pretty obscene here. Even if it's a below-grade space like the existing Canadian Tire is that would be fine.

    Toronto Saint Elizabeth Catholic School | 15.83m | 3s | TCDSB | CS&P

    I'm not disagreeing with you, but many teachers live a very long way from where they work. In my experience, only around a third of teachers at my schools actually lived in the district they work in, most are commuting long distances where transit just isn't feasible with current infrastructure...

    Toronto Saint Elizabeth Catholic School | 15.83m | 3s | TCDSB | CS&P

    Well, a school with 24 classrooms plus a childcare centre likely has around 40-45 staff there during the day, which most if not all will have their own car. Add parent volunteers and other visitors who might require parking and 60 is pretty appropriate I think.

    Toronto Woodbine GO Station | 14.01m | 2s | Metrolinx | GHD

    This should answer your question

    Toronto Saint Elizabeth Catholic School | 15.83m | 3s | TCDSB | CS&P

    This school is located immediately adjacent to the Cloverdale Mall property so it's very clear why we're seeing this great proposal. Looks like 19 standard classrooms plus 5 kindergarten classrooms. 60 below-grade parking spaces and 4 short-term at-grade spaces. Also want to point out the...

    Kitchener 51 Church Street | 131.15m | 40s | JD Development Group | Kirkor

    Odd spot (for now) as far as downtown expansion goes, but I do like the building

    Hamilton 90 Skinner Road | ?m | 3s | New Horizon | Graziani + Corazza

    1A) Just a little update on the Waterdown Road situation. In my little map, green is what was already 4 lanes and blue is what is currently being either widened or twinned. Looks like everything should be done by next spring. A new stoplight is now operating at the intersection of Waterdown...

    Oakville Amica North Oakville | 37.22m | 10s | Willowbay | MSAi

    Looks like one more floor until topping out here

    Oakville Nuvo | 31.53m | 8s | Fernbrook Homes | Arch. Unfolded

    I love how the gold accents became diarrhea coloured spandrel, great design choice there.

    Burlington 795 Brant Street | ?m | 33s | Camarro Group | RAW Design

    Here's some more drawings and things. My understanding is that nothing has changed since these were made except for the height of the building, which is now 3 storeys taller.

    Hamilton 162 Ward Avenue | 115.5m | 38s | R+L

    This lot is actually (or possibly was) leased by McMaster, I was kind of expecting this to end up as student housing of some form.

    London | 80-82 Baseline Road | 8s | ?

    I think it's important to note that these are the ONLY two single family homes on this stretch of road which is not only lined with 5-12 storey buildings, but also already has multiple proposals like this one, and a well-used bus line

    Burlington Realm Condos | 59.93m | 16s | Adi | Chamberlain

    No visible changes from ground level last time I was up there but there are people working on site

    Burlington 2331 Appleby Line (Chick-fil-A) | ?m | 1s | Triovest

    What is it with us taking pictures on the same day? Here's mine from the other side just before the storm...

    Sheppard Line 4 Subway Extension (Proposed)

    If we're going to go this route (no pun intended), my TTC fantasy would have it extend south through the Downsview project, continuing west along Wilson and somehow ending up terminating at Pearson or maybe one more stop to the international Centre/Malton.

    GO Transit: Construction Projects (Metrolinx, various)

    I used to drive down Burloak twice a week, and one time I was looking going "what the hell am I looking at here?" well turns out a huge portion of the steel frame had gone up in a matter of days. Here's the project discussion, I started it with a photo I took (from the passenger seat) while...

    Niagara Falls 6289 Main Street | 72.22m | 20s | Zeljko Holdings | Chamberlain

    I'm actually really looking forward to this. A precedent needs to be set for future developments like this. Here's the location:
