Yes but THIS time, for SURE… we’re gonna solve the housing crisis.If this is going to be 8K units, I could see just this cherry beach part of the Portlands Peninsula housing over 100K people when it’s all said and done. The main Peninsula probably another 150K people. This area will be realy dense.
Oh man, I’ll take more photos of the area pls. I mean, in whichever forum thread is appropriate. I remember using some of those abandoned truck stalls for graffiti backdrops for photosIn the early aughts, I used to have a studio at an old trucking terminal on Mill Street just east of Cherry..... precious few people lived anywhere around there and it was quite sketchy at night. Nonetheless, two decades later it's doing alright. It's all a question of timelines.

The urban shipwrecks? Don't recall see anything like that on this site. >.<I have a few more from the early 2000s but they're not really germane to the topic of this thread. I wonder if there's another forum where they'd be more appropriate?
Not sure about the environmental impact of that, but primarily it would be more expensive.The City is planning to rebuild the Unwin Avenue bridge over the Hearn 'circulating channel" - SEE: https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2025/ie/bgrd/backgroundfile-254868.pdf
Question: Why do they not simply fill in the R.L. Hearn "circulating channel" - it is no longer (and never will be again) a generating station???
Also the channel has value as an amenity as many want to see more water in our landscapes.The City is planning to rebuild the Unwin Avenue bridge over the Hearn 'circulating channel" - SEE: https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2025/ie/bgrd/backgroundfile-254868.pdf

Really? The bridge proposal is $5.5 million.Not sure about the environmental impact of that, but primarily it would be more expensive.
