I like the sarcasm because no one seems to have noticed that 2012 is also the 175th anniversary of the Upper Canada Rebellion in the wave of War of 1812 commemorations.

Nobody celebrates '175'. Talk to me in 25 years.
... although, if Toronto hopes to have something built in time for it they'd better start planning now. Not to say that it'd be complete by then, however.

Actually, 175 years is often celebrated as a major milestone in many places. It's not quite the same celebration as the 200th anniversary, but it gets acknowledged with some events and media coverage.

that might also coincide with the repairs to the fountain on University Ave.

Looks like they have finally awarded the contract for construction of the Visitor Centre.
Construction to begin this month apparently.

It may open in time to commerate the 200th of the Battle of York. There's still two years to go before Fort McHenry, after all.

I was thinking it would be just on time for the Gardiner to fall down on top of it.

Buried along with the 1992 plan that had a transit plaza around Princes' Gate with a streetcar underpass and stops serving Ontario Place. Next ....

has there been a lot of work to that part of the gardiner recently? it looks brand new!
that's been done for a few years now, but it sure looks so much better than most of the Gardiner's underbelly
