    People love to stand in the bike lanes, it drives me nuts. I had a guy push his stroller into the bike lane to wait for the light, right as a bunch of people on bikes and scooters were crossing the intersection. It would be bad enough if it was just him, but the stroller is a special kind of...

    Boring architecture? All the heritage buildings and facades are boring to you?

    The white part facing the street looks great, agree with the post above about how it breaks it up nicely. The white part facing the back on the other hand...

    Those look superficial, and that's very normal. I would have zero concerns about that

    5st replaced driving lanes for a few blocks (the 9ave underpass for example). The rest is parking lanes. Do we have usage numbers for the bike lanes downtown? The idea of eliminating the lane on 12th is nuts, probably the best used lane in the city!

    I bet we will get a big heat wave at some point in August. Whatever system is giving us all this rain has to move out at some point...

    Sat on the Leopold's patio (kitty corner to this site) at lunch, was impressed that the demo of this has finally started to move quickly. Only about half of the building left.

    Definitely no drought in the southern part of the region, but it sounds like they have had very little of this up north. Smoke starting to move in again this afternoon apparently. Yeah the Bow is quite high, a lot of the little pathways I like to walk on the N side of Edworthy are currently...

    Battistella are still in the game. The Blues Can is the only project I can think of they are doing currently

    There were a couple towers in Toronto that were done years ago that looked quite similar to these, but were white instead of the condiment colours these were to be. The TO ones looked much, much better...

    The Morrison | 119m | 35s | Western Securities | Hindle Architects

    I'd be very surprised if they only did a single level of parking there, would expect 3 or 4 at minimum. Above grade could reduce the amount of parking required underground, but the additional ramp to go up instead of down, would reduce the amount of frontage for retail, and not really save them...

    People also seem to forget that every person on a bike is one less person in a car. People just have such a selfish mindset about this and are caught in an us vs them mentality.

    So is this the wettest July ever, or does it just feel like it. Haven't been mountain biking in a month since the trails are all mud and running water. Where was this moisture during snowboard season?!
