Motion passed by council calling for more density in Ookwemin Minising. Much to the delight of @Northern Light, I'm sure! 😉

Pics or it didn't happen.
I am sure I have them somewhere, but not easy to find. Some of that sod in our sub, was actually put over a dusting of snow (similar to today) and very low temps at that time. I remember thinking...how do they get it to unroll let alone lay down? I think they must have left the skids overnight in a garage indoors somewhere.
 

The wooden poles are spreading across Cherry Street and to the south side of the estuary.

Ookwemin Street BBQ just doesn't have the same ring :rolleyes:
…that establishment will likely retain it’s namesake so that it’s liquored up patrons won’t embarrass themselves when try to pronounce that. >.<

Don't worry - I doubt the name will change People here are very tied to old names (or too lazy or disorganised to change). Toronto Hydro still has the Duke Street Transformer Station, though Duke St became Adelaide in the 1970s. (It is at corner of George & Adelaide.)
 
I hear Toronto Dominion Bank also operates in the states… despite the United States neither being Toronto OR Dominion.

Yes it's quite ubiquitous on the East coast and growing steadily as they take over smaller chains. But if you ask most Americans what TD stands for they wouldn't have a clue. Imagine telling a Bostonian that their arena is Toronto Dominion Gardens?
