So we are back to 1 Bloor East.
A project transforming the heart of uptown Toronto.
I always felt like Bloor and Yonge was on the north end of mid-town Toronto and that Eglinton was uptown.
Is there any consensus on this?

Midtown is Yonge and Eg
Uptown - Yonge and Bloor
soooooooo..no concensus.
These days I consider Yonge and Bloor downtown, Yonge and St Clair to Yonge and Lawrence midtown and NYCC uptown.
But Yonge and Eg is 2-1/2 miles North of Bloor. First you have downtown, then midtown, then uptown. 100 years ago Yonge and Bloor was uptown, that's probably where the theatre gots it's name.
Besides, Uptown, Midtown - that's more of a NYC classification. I rarely hear people use those terms. It's either downtown for everything between Bathurst - Don River and south of Bloor, or they just give the intersection, which is even more precise.
For 2 or so years....at least 100 "real" estate experts (and twice as many internet experts) pronounced this Pemberton Uptown thing... dead, dead, dead... but apparently they have the money to dig a decent grave to bury the project.
Otherwise, they may be building a building. Oh oh.
There was the Midtown theatre at Bloor & Bathurst, it's now Lee's Palace/Dance Cave. Go figure.
