• Toronto Storeys shares the opinions of six architects as to their favourite buildings in the city.


• Why is one condo owner in Toronto only accepting bitcoin payments from potential purchasers? Among other things, it makes things relatively easier for foreign buyers. CBC reports.


• Marcel Theriault, one of the policeman accused of brutally beating Dafonte Miller, is also accused of misleading Durham Region police investigators. The Toronto Star reports.


• University of Toronto doctoral student Sasha Reid identified the pattern of a serial killer at work in Toronto's LGBTQ community, and told police. Their response? They thanked her and moved on. The Toronto Star reports.


• Edward Keenan wonders why Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders possibly thought he could say what he said about the community not helping, especially when the community has been warning about a serial killer while police denied anything. The Toronto Star has the article.
