[URBAN NOTE] Five Toronto links: TTC, Davisville, 1080 Dupont, E Condos, Ontario Place

[rfmcdonald]

• The TTC needs $C 33.5 billion over the next 15 years to keep going, of which two-thirds is not yet sourced. Ben Spurr reports at the Toronto Star.


• Urban Toronto notes the demolition of the noteworthy modernist Davisville Junior Public School.


• blogTO highlights a new basement apartment at 1080 Dupont Street, at $C 1500 a month.


• Toronto Life notes that E Condos is beset by screams, produced by the interaction of high winds on unfinished exterior fixtures.


• This NOW Toronto feature by Richard Longley makes the point that Ontario Place needs innovative newness if it is to escape being ravaged by bad planning under Ford; the same old will no longer work.
