Just what Toronto needed, another Jack Astor's!
That piece of sidewalk needed something to enliven the street, and given the constraints owing to the odd height of the floor above street level, they have done a good job. Meanwhile, I will not be surprised by some potentially elaborate system of windbreaks to protect people eating on that patio.

You're right, the winds are horrendous there. I'll let you know what the patio is like, I'm going to have lunch there today with my wife.

btw it looks like they've stared putting the new lights on Yonge south of Dundas ... they already have a few up. Only on the West side of Yonge so far.

According to a manager, Dollarama will be raising prices on some of it's items in the new year.

Now I can finally buy that Etro suit I've been yearning for.

Tim Horton's is coming to High Park--just east of the 7 eleven near Keele and Bloor. Currently under construction, and moving fast I might add. Can't wait.

Oh, you mean the old cruddy donut place next to the seniors home. (Well, I guess that's the first Tim's within eyeshot of High Park...)

Adma, yeah, that old Greek-owned diner (it was sorta cool in a way, owners sold and retired last fall.) The place was pulled down, and the last month they've been working on the new Tim Ho's building--sadly, the "strip mall" at Keele and Bloor continues.
This afternoon, walking by the site I saw:
1)This gross stripmall that must go during the next real estate cycle!
2)the site next to the Lithuanian seniors home.
3)Someone's got a problem with good old Tim Horton's:
4)Looking towards urbandreamer's dreamland:

On another note, cute little brunch spot B at the junction of Dundas St West and Roncevalles has vacated the premises (sadly), but today I noticed the place has been leased to another start up, opening soon called "Simply Nosh Bistro Cafe." Anyone looking for a job as a waiter/waitress?

Fresco's, retailer of prepared, ready-to-cook meals, has abandoned their recently opened King St West location.
Not surprising -- the food was bland and expensive. It was never busy.
