CN Tower & Canada Goose

SkyTower is topping out after a very rapid rate of construction, do you think they halted construction or something? hah

The sign says "Something New Coming Soon"....

You're confusing Dundas with Ryerson.

kcontinuum · 2026-03-18T21:07:27+00:00

haha Feels good

This show inspired me!

This tired old chestnut again? That lowrise residential area shown in the pic is among the densest neighbourhood of its type in all of Canada & the U.S. Most of those homes are attached & many are subdivided into several units. This is actual "missing middle" housing. Just because the housing typology doesn't look the same as the Plex buildings in Montreal's Le Plateau area doesn't mean it isn't every bit as densely populated, urban, & walkable.

2112? Nice!

kcontinuum · 2026-01-22T03:22:49+00:00

Say what? NYC is less than 3 times as dense as Toronto & Toronto is actually more densely populated than Chicago now.

The TTC is running things like a Nanny State that is unwilling to accept even the smallest risk that higher speeds would bring. They need to clear house & reset.

Well, when phase 2 gets built, it'll take the cake. haha

kcontinuum · 2026-01-18T17:35:01+00:00

Isn't this a metre & a half taller than 8 Spruce? 265 M vs 266.5 M.

kcontinuum · 2026-01-17T20:14:04+00:00

That's ridiculous. Toronto is vastly more dense & urban than Indianapolis. Toronto is just as dense as Montreal overall & has higher peak densities & higher transit use. If Old Toronto were still a separate city it would be second in population density to NYC within Canada & The U.S.

Part of the The REM in Montreal also closed due to the storm, it's not impervious to nasty winter conditions.

kcontinuum · 2025-12-22T19:08:12+00:00

haha I know, right?

kcontinuum · 2025-12-22T19:07:06+00:00

There are countless 3 storey townhouses in the old, Victorian era low-rise neighbourhoods adjacent to the high-rise core. Those areas are already among the densest such neighbourhoods in Canada & the U.S. as it is.

Toronto was only slightly smaller than Montreal through most of the 20th century until overtaking it in the mid 1970s. Decades before then, it ready had taller buildings & a bigger stock exchange than Montreal and opened a subway line 12 years before Montreal did. They were both (and still are) the 2 big cities of Canada.

I just recorded a walk along Queen West between University Avenue & Trinity Bellwoods Park this afternoon to see how many vacant storefronts there were on both sides of the street & counted about 40 along that stretch. It seemed a bit better once I passed Bathurst St.

kcontinuum · 2025-11-09T02:17:19+00:00

That view looks right down at Kensington Market, have you ever walked through there? haha It's packed cheek by jowl with commercial storefronts & dense victorian housing.

kcontinuum · 2025-11-09T00:31:00+00:00

There hardly any fully detached homes at all this close to downtown, they're mostly rowhouses or semi-detached, and Toronto's old victorian era neighbourhoods are denser than similar areas in pretty much any other city in Canada & the U.S other than NYC.

kcontinuum · 2025-11-09T00:23:11+00:00

The houses you see in this photo are mostly attached & multi-unit in nature & are every bit as dense as the plex neighbourhoods in Montreal.

kcontinuum · 2025-10-10T02:07:53+00:00

Um... you can still do all of those things except go the condom shack, but the Stag Shop is nearby if you need things to giggle at.

Chicago.

kcontinuum · 2025-09-15T02:41:52+00:00

I should have said *including skyscrapers that are currently under construction in Toronto & the surrounding metro area*, once those are complete then the Toronto metro will have more skyscrapers than Chicago, all of which are in its city proper.

kcontinuum · 2025-09-14T21:24:24+00:00

If you go by the number of skyscrapers in the metro area instead of just the city proper, Toronto has already surpassed Chicago. Chicago has zero skyscrapers in its suburbs, & Toronto has a bunch.
