Redevelopment of Modernist complex on Toronto waterfront alarms residents and preservationists: theartnewspaper.com/2024/03/15/ont…
The province is not following the law, as they’ve attempted to exempt themselves from practically every law that exists at Ontario Place! Gross way to go about destroying a heritage site. toronto.citynews.ca/video/2023/12/… #topoli #onpoli
These are difficult conversations many families are having these days. They are never easy, but can’t be avoided.
The Ontario Place bill. Enviro, planning, heritage, even noise regulations explicitly do not apply. Ford is blowing up every normal process and procedure for a waterpark
This is something we should all be concerned about. Where is Canada’s leadership?

Shocking news. This building will never last 95 years. The public will be stuck with a white elephant that’s the size of a stadium. globalnews.ca/news/9626967/o…
Moriyama Teshima Architects would like to offer this public statement related to the Ontario Science Centre.
This is a very old problem identified when Ontario Place was first built. No easy access from transit.
This is a very old problem identified when Ontario Place was first built. No easy access from transit.
For further clarity, here is the section on parking in the Call for Proposals. All the firms that bid on this "opportunity" didn't know -- and this is *extremely* important -- that the Ontario govt was prepared to build a 2,100 space underground garage w/ direct access. #topoli
