Boston did it, but it took them a while.

It is not gonna happen any time soon, but it is a good start to discuss the issue.

Hahahaha, no kidding, fen...you need a holiday =D

I don't quite envision Toronto like that, even if everyone was on jet-skis for the 2.5 months of summer that we get each year.

...mmmm...pina colada...I need a tropical vacation, too, me thinks.

I would like to see it scrapped... it just looks so ugly, maybe they could actually do somethign nice with that land instead. I remember years back they had this image in the Toronto Star with what Toronto could look like without the Gardiner in the way of the waterfront and it was awesome! I never take the TTC so I couldn't care less about it. Unless whatever they plan on doing with the TCC lowers trafffic significantly.
