I really like the simplicity of it tbh. Not everything needs to be eye-candy. Also, simple is better for affordability and long term maintenance fees.

You might also have to factor in appeals timelines. They are asking for a reduction to building separation distance and I can see Vetro and Sasso east facing owners being somewhat successful in pushing back on that. It appears as though the proposed facades are a zero setback which is fine, but...

Oh great. Grey brick and modern style lampposts. The thing that makes Stephan Ave so identifiable is the sandstone, warm paving stones and historical (looking) furniture. We really should not be cleansing this space by making it look like any corporate or private mall plaza. Gives outlet vibes...

Just make them both two way. And consistent sidewalk widths would be nice.

I would live there. Great location and potential for some good amenities. Could support a small grocer.

Probably just an exercise in reducing their liability, and likely, insurance rate.

6 years ago we had nearly 400,000 less people in the CMA

It is. The other one is background centre-right in your photo.

Which is fine, as there is plenty of greenfield to build on. How wide is the QEII ROW? I know it's likely that much of any new line would need to be constructed outside the ROW but curious to know how much actual space the Province already owns. I may have glazed over the answer in previous...

I want to go on it. When will the public have the chance to view it?

This dig was fast. Seems fast.

And alpha house across the street. With all the investment in the area, new bike lanes, station upgrades, hotel, BMO expansion, and potential mixed use on the empty lot between 14th and 15th facing McLeod - not to mention hundreds of new daycare spaces between the old hostel and Sasso, as well...

I believe ridership post recovery is more spread throughout the day. I know peaks still exist, and 4 car trains are necessary to handle those loads. But, I do notice busy trains throughout the day. My worry is that the visual appearance of two-car trains will send the wrong message to users both...

I know construction is occurring at the same rate that other projects are, but this one feels fast to me. Love it!

It’s part of the 17th Avenue Plan. No building on the south side of the street can shadow the sidewalk on the north side. I’m not opposed to this - parks and patios would otherwise suffer. Also, Tompkins park is directly across the street and needs sun between the equinoxes. It’s sunlight worth...

I really hope they repave the whole length once this widening project(s) is done.

This is happening quite fast now!

There’s an additional 4 panels left to speak, and I think this item is deferred until tomorrow now as they are starting a Bowness item after the dinner break. This likely won’t be decided on until late morning, early afternoon tomorrow now.

This. Very this.
