Congratulations! “Kirsten Neuschäfer, a South African whose life as a sailor has practically defined the word “adventure,” today won the 2022-23 Golden Globe Race, becoming the first woman to win a solo round-the-world race.” sailmagazine.com/racing/kirsten…

@WaterfrontTO I would not call this portal a gateway to the waterfront since it's located at the middle of the central waterfront and when the train comes out it's leaving the core waterfront area. It's more like a gateway to and from an underground tunnel. The canopy would block views.

Waterfront Toronto@WaterfrontTO·
The portal for the Waterfront East LRT Extension presents an opportunity to introduce canopies that can be iconic gateways to the waterfront. Do you think the design adds to the overall public realm of Queens Quay? Tell us here: bit.ly/2Sj3VNA

@WaterfrontTO The canopies seem unnecessary and create an additional visual barrier from the north side of Queens Quay (where I live). The portal does not need to be celebrated, it should be visually minimized.

@antirealist57 @JohnLorinc @CrosstownTO Am I correct to understand that this applies only where the 'pad' is on the City r.o.w.? (as opposed to a legally permitted driveway widening/hardscape entirely on the owned/unencumbered portion of property?

#topoli A planning question for Easter Sunday. This residential side street near Chaplin & Eglinton has pad parking sufficient for 2-3 cars on literally every lot. Also sits metres from a new @CrosstownTO station. What to do...?

@antirealist57 @JohnLorinc @CrosstownTO The City may have the right but I bet most Councillors would prefer not to piss off all their parking pad constituents and leave them with orphaned pads that will need substantial landadcaping

Perhaps the Bird-Friendly Guidelines needs a section on public art.

Imagine if we wrapped cars this way. “There’s no excuse for running a red” “Speeding is stealing others’ safety” “You really don’t need a vehicle this large” “When you park, be sure to pay”

This! The turning movements of giant fire trucks and garbage trucks continues to define minimum curb radii and pavement widths in Toronto. This design allows cars to zip around corners while endangering pedestrians. Smaller trucks would save lives and make streets more pleasant.
Melissa & Chris Bruntlett@modacitylife

These compact fire trucks are widely used across the Netherlands. Not only do they improve maneuverability and safety, they enable streets to be redesigned for slower speeds and shorter crossing distances. Design your service vehicles to fit your city. Not the other way around.
