Still looks busy but actually new things are all dead in their tracks. They can't get enough units sold to get funding from the bank to start.. so sites are just sitting there with nothing being done, it takes a few years to build something so even if they start tomorrow, it'll be years before people can actually live there.

Toronto is the next newyork billionaire row.

Fascinating stuff! I've never been to Toronto or set foot in Ontario for that matter. I'm a lifelong Vancouver resident and look forward to traveling one day to this city whose skyline may one day rival New York's! Impressive how TO has developed. Thanks for this man!

As a Canadian, i can confirm everything ine this video is very very true!

Good vid. Unfortunately traffic will be a nightmare from now until infinity

Not completely opposed to condos at the Rail Deck but the city should negotiate for more park space over the rail yard - current proposal doesn't provide enough. The area should really try to mimic Millennium Park in Chicago.

Great video! Would love to see you do one for Etobicoke, especially the areas from the 427 along The Queensway, Dundas, and Bloor to the Humber River.

Great To See Such Progress, It's Like Watching A Dream Become Reality... Futuristic Yet Familiar... Between Chicago And Toronto, There Cityscape Layouts Are Mindboggling. More Proof That Tallest is Not Always Best...Design With The People Element in Mind. Who Wouldn't Wanna Come Home to Art and Or Work At Astonishing Inspiring Buildings. AWESOME !

Toronto will potentially have over 350 150m + buildings by 2030. Chicago will have around 140. The skyline is going to be insane. Once T.O starts building a few 400m + towers it will start to look like NYC does currently

Cool. I used to live on the Esplanade in 1980... on the waterfront, in a run down warehouse firetrap along with other artists and musicians. We paid about $250 a month rent. Area now occupied by million dollar condos.

Hey man. Great video. I am wondering where I can find this 3D proposed and constructed model map.

Those Frank Gehry towers have been proposed for over 15 years. But I think the original proposal there were 3 towers. Either way, super excited to see those!

Stunning video and a lot of infor~. where to find those 3d city map online? Official plan ?

Great video!❤

Wow, the development is intense. I wish they protected the skyline a little bit, kept lower towards closure to the shoreline. Allow the CN tower to remain the tallest structure.

Nice work

The thing I love about Toronto, but also hate but also love is that there are so many twin towers or triplets and they’re not like small and they’re not like mass manufactured basic buildings. It’s like incredible stunning monstrous towers and they’re just built in pairs all the time and it’s universal. It’s the Frank Geary project and it’s those funky ones with the cool like camo texture on the waterfront and just like everything everywhere there’s so many twins and it blows my mind how quickly the city is developing, and it just is an incredible thing to see. I was just in Toronto recently for the first time in several years and my god it is an incredible sight

Etobicoke has been a part of the City of Toronto since 1998.

Wow thank you for this interesting video. I will do a Semester abroad from september-december in Toronto. My biggest wish is to live in a furnished room in a skyscraper. Do you have any ideas, where I can find a room? I would love to hear from you

Just to bring the commentator up to the present, he stated the Humber Bay area was not in Toronto but actually in Etobicoke. Since the passage of the 1997 City of Toronto Act that brought about the 1998 amalgamation of Metropolitan Toronto and its constituents into the current City of Toronto, Etobicoke, as well as East York, North York, Old Toronto, Scarborough, and York have not existed. It is all the City of Toronto. Chimo

nice

Dear Jordan, I wander if you heard about yet of the creasy proposal to develop the misused giant bloc of the 320 hectares on the Portland Peninsula on the East waterfront premium land. Is the SkyWalk Promenade Toronto Megaproject Tourist Destination (SWPT). Part of the project is proposing the tallest building in the world.

This is exciting, but I suspect developers are mistakenly bullish on Toronto. I don't think productivity will meet expectations, and these towers won't be finished

8:40 “Technically it’s Etobicoke”. Etobicoke is a borough in the city of Toronto. What an asinine comment; Etobicoke is just as much a part of Toronto as downtown is. There are a total of six boroughs that constitute the city of Toronto.

I was there in 1991 and I saw much potential , but an ugly lakefront. I'm from Chicago and nothing but parkland stands at the lake water. Damn Toronto sure messed it up and there's little individuality in their skyscrapers. Horrible. It's so congested. Take a look at Chicago and what it could have been. Our politicians passed laws to leave the lakefront for recreation...oh and the Chicago river adds , but you have one thing we don't , islands

bro this is the 6th video I've found of you commeting about calgary being better than toronto💀 like every time its "Toronto skyline is finally starting to catch up with Calgary City" If you where to cut the toronto sky line 5 times it would still be bigger than calgary.

Where is everyone shit going through?

Please no. Need more beautiful medieval style buildings. Modern buildings are so ugly.

What an appalling hellscape for the future of the city. I cannot understand how so many of these developments tout "office space" and "retail space" in their proposals. The post-pandemic work environment is widely hybrid. Office space isn't exactly at a premium. Also, online shopping has rendered many brick-and-mortar retail outlets obsolete. Finally, can the existing infrastructure support so many new residences in a concentrated area? This city is already very car-hostile and transit is strained and unreliable. To say nothing about the additional strain on water treatment. If you want an idea of how these developments will age, I suggest you look at St. Jamestown, our densest neighbourhood.

I hope I’m not there anymore by then. Cheap glass towers all over , business people and no culture.

Charmless greed. I remember when it was celebrated as “people’s city”. This architecture is all about how little you matter.👎
