Spring is in the air,  birds are chirping, the sun is shining ( sometimes) and…snow is falling? What the heck, weather — what is your deal? Always such a downer.

There’s no reason to sulk though, spring is here! With it, comes these 4 awesome things that we’re pretty excited about.

Hello! We’ve brought you another Market Wharf  construction update. This month, move-ins have started on the lower levels! Keep scrolling for the latest update…

Well Toronto, we did it. We finally surpassed Chicago to become the 4th largest city by population in North America. Be honest, doesn’t it feel good up here at the…kind of top? Whatever, that’s not too important. What is important is that we’re pretty big, we’re also “pretty good” at some other things.

We’re often described as the “Chicago of the north” and we can see why, the two cities share similar features and personalities. But we’ve never been too keen on remaining equals, we need to make this 4th spot our own. We need to make Chicago “America’s Toronto”. So without further adieu, we’re pitting the two cities head to head in a totally not-biased battle. Chicago Vs. Toronto –  The showdown for 4th.

There really isn’t anything better then diving nose-first into a good book. Last month we went a little sci-fi, but we’ll try to bring us back down to reality this month with these fiction titles. Warning – since this is the month of love and all, they’re heartbreakers.

Check out our reviews after the jump! 

Hey folks, we’re fresh from a visit to Library District and thought we would be nice and give you a little update as to what has been going on at the site this month. Windows are installed up to the 8th floor, units are getting drywalled on the second and third floors, and we’ve begun pouring the 20th floor this week!

Move over, Yonge st, you’re not the talk of the town anymore. Well you may be still, but you’re not our favourite. There, we said it.

One of the reasons we love Toronto so much is the diverse nature of each street. Be it culturally, economically, or demographically, each street has it’s own story from beginning to end. In our first entry to the series, we take a look at what is sometimes called “downtown south”. Or as we lovingly call it, “Jock Alley”. Come with us as we explain why Bremner Boulevard is one of our favourite streets in Toronto.

We just can’t keep it secret anymore…This is Market Wharf’s future public artwork by Paul Raff Studio!

It was a a bit rainy the other day and we thought, what better day to make a visit to St. Lawrence Market? So we headed on down to the neighbourhood to check out the latest things the market has to offer!

Library district

Hello hello from Library District!  Since we last saw each other, it was around the end of the fake apocalypse and the 11th floor was being poured. Since then, we’ve gained 3 floors, Windows, and the beginning of framing is underway on the lower floors.  Follow past the jump for more!

We were hanging out having lunch in the St Lawrence Market earlier this week and thought, “you know, let’s just see what’s going on at Market Wharf”.
