No. That looks like Ontario Line laydown space.

...I figured that was too good to be true. /sigh

The sediment area of the Don seen in the early Gardiner images doesn’t appear to be in the works, I mean look at that huge bay we’ve got. I would have thought they’d have gotten that done by now as part of the flood mitigation. Is it on hold while they get the lakeshore bridge done, or did it change?

We have an overall resubmission for the 3C Lakeshore Site at Cherry and Lake Shore, with a first phase in the site's northwest corner!

BTW, just to start a feedback loop, this revision kills the 300 Queens Quay East plan.

COBE trying their hand at condos, not bad. But it feels like they're being influenced by AA too much

Just imagine how much more development would've been built if council had voted to remove the eastern portion of the Gardiner! The continuous waterfront along the Keating Channel would've been such a nice place to be.

The plan is that the Gardiner will be nowhere near the Keating Channel when they rebuild it. It would make no sense to have freeways with a river view and buildings with track and freeway views.

I watched a video today on a building in- I think it was- China, where a monorail cuts through it. They manage the noise and vibrations by running supports through the building in a space where nothing touches.

I’m sure at the rate we’re going we’ll have started to put buildings around and over the Gardiner before anything happens to it.

Just encase the Gardiner in glass once we build that 401 tunnel. Our continued worship to the almighty car and what not.

Yes, I don't have any issue with the elevated freeway hemmed in by freeways and know of Liziba station. They oversell how great the tech used is... the sound is inside neighbouring apartments is up to 60 decibels which is great for a noise on the street, great in that it doesn't harm hearing, but not great in your apartment. You would need to turn your TV up to levels that hurt your hearing to not be distracted by 60 decibel noises .

The rebuild of the Gardiner isn't really optional. Similar to what they are doing at Exhibition, that kind of rebuild work is required on the eastern portion. They have decided that when they get to that portion they are moving it north rather than to build it where it is now. Actually they identified that one of the key benefits of building it north is also the fact that on a new alignment much construction can be performed without impacting the existing road until later stages.

Although I dont care for the staggered elements, I can appreciate the more solid materials and the fact the designs have stepbacks and are not top heavy

The variety in materials is also nice to see, I'm glad we're starting to see multi-tower developments with varied designs rather than twins. The precast elements actually being brought to the ground is also very nice, death to the all glass box podium!
