Taken 11 April. This corner lot is fenced off but unsure as to what is going on.

There's discussion for that in this thread
1286 College St.
The self serve car wash at College and Lansdowne is all boarded up. No sign of any Development Application signs, nothing in the AIC. Anybody got any insight if something is coming here?

Ok, can anyone explain what the lingering construction project was outside that library branch?? I swear it went on for close to a decade, keeping the right lane of Dundas closed for a block, creating a torturous bottle neck that made my daily commute hell (except in my biking days). It only finished about a week ago finally. Hilariously, in classic Toronto ineptitude, for all those years, left turns northward onto Bathurst remained permitted right next to the endless right lane blockage, adding insult to injury for the suffering drivers and people on the 505 streetcar. About a month and a half ago, someone in the traffic department apparently got the memo about this utter stupidity AFTER MANY YEARS OF INACTION, and suddenly banned the left turns...just as the project finished. 
Now you can turn left again. I can't even with this idiocy.

Under/over 8 months following sidewalk reopening before Toronto Hydro comes and slices up that freshly paved smooth concrete and refills it with patchy asphalt??

Rooms could be the best local coffee chain...
