Wow, fantastic! From which document is this?

Yonge and Bloor.

Fuck AI in every conceivable way

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA sums it all up perfectly.

What do you mean “right now”?

As a developer, I'm lost as to how they make the economics work in places like Brentwood and Metrotown. I'm *extremely* jealous. Not just architecturally, but suite design and size, amenity offering, etc., the Lower Mainland is murdering Toronto on every level.

Joking aside, it's wild when endless American urban-churn accounts lament the fact they can't seem to get some shit 5+1-with-massive-parking-garage around a new transit station. Van, unfortunately hasn't quite gotten round to the parking issue, but we are here on density!

Holy hell just fucking die already old man

A beautiful future America cannot fathom.

Damn Crow Rate!

I would have thought the first image would be Saddletown?

Paris is the undisputed king city. No questions.

Dan who??

a rainbow and a star with the words " i know you know " ALT: a rainbow and a star with the words " i know you know "

Four. Cops aren't people.

LMAO

National Transcontinental was never a service, correct? It's a line that later formed part of the Grand Trunk Pacific, but you could never 'buy a ticket' on a National Transcontinental train, no?

Something that's not feasibly going to happen?bsky.app/profile/projectend.bsky....

The Portlands Freight Spur is already decommissioned and parted out. There's no foreseeable future where it gets reenlisted for new service as there are already several sizable gaps in the ROW. Also, I don't quite get why anyone would want to go 8km at very low speed to get 2km as the crow flies?

For reference, the Garden City Skyway is about the appropriate height (nope). So let's then say we're contemplating a lift. The Homer Bridge, just south of the Skyway, would fit the bill, but its 130m span across the Welland is a full 100+m short of the Eastern Gap. It's wild how wide the EG is!

I was full throated for that bridge last summer but as soon as I looked at it more closely I completely went the other way. When you size out Wellandmax dimensions, then apply appropriate slopes to each of the approaches, it just gets ridiculous. Could do a lift, but way more complex and expensive.

Leaving low-rise out (because North America generally sucks at it and, in the end, who cares), can you give some examples of bigger things and I’ll see if I’ve got answers?

I've never thought twice about them and it's never been in comment sheets. Were that phrase to appear there at some point in the future, the most it's getting is a 'noted' and that's the last we'll hear of it.

I don’t think any of us pay much attention to that kind of thing. With tower forms, it’s shear walls which are structural & cast in place. You couldn’t use modular “flat pack” components for the compressive strength required for taller things, esp when the new OBC comes in this year, could you?

What are “articulation rules”?

It might be more fucked up that America is so car-oriented that a goddamn Hospital campus is so large it needs a people mover...

He’s an unprecedented level of shitbag in a council with a pretty low bar…

Easiest tell: that building doesn’t exist in Toronto.
