Wednesday, August 2nd. I will note, unrelated to CIBC Square, that one of the asphalt patches in the crosswalk at Scott Street and The Esplanade (bottom right of second picture) has a particularly bad depression of about 2 inches, and very nearly tripped an individual walking ahead of me. I hope that they patch that up a bit better, definitely would've caught me if not for seeing the person ahead!
This was noted before and seems sensible to me. Things fall and that's why construction workers wear hard hats.Not sure if this is common knowledge, but heard that the park won’t fully open until CSN’s exterior is fully complete. Has to do with liability and potential for falling debris.
Good shot but must say that I am surprised at how long it is taking to get the east side moving upwards!
Even the steel for the tower looks to have stalled until they can finish the lobby.Good shot but must say that I am surprised at how long it is taking to get the east side moving upwards!
TOK Coach Lines (which admittedly only runs 12 buses a week, 6 in, 6 out, half to/from Haliburton, half to/from Southampton and points in between) moved out of the Union Bus Terminal owing to the unpredictability of traffic in Toronto and difficulty in maintaining schedules because of it. They now pick up and drop off from VMC as their main Toronto station (with Pearson being the other main stop on the Southampton route).Ahh gotta love employers who call back their employees for no reason but to justify lease payments and for bosses to watch their employees because they have nothing better to do and it makes them feel like big shots again. Despite countless studies showing productivity increases with hybrid work. But I digress, those living in the dinosaur age will never learn.
On a side note, i know it's been discussed but I cant help but think the Union Station Bus Terminal has been underbuilt every time I walk by the terminal under Phase 1. While it's true GO Expansion will reduce GO Bus needs, i've been seeing buses laying over all around downtown because there's simply a lack of bus lay-by space. Literally Queen's Quay, Bay St, York St, heck even Lake Shore Blvd E are always parked up with buses. And it's not like we're seeing less service providers who want to utilize the bus terminal with new services either.
