So, Infrastructure Ontario completed their Ontario Place EA. This picture of the study tells you everything you need to know about the value of it. Therme, and their clearcutting of West Island was not included in the study. Some "highlights" in this thread. #topoli #onpoli How did the taxpayer funded $500 million dollar underground parking facility become the preferred option vs. using the Ex parking, despite having more knocks against it? And how is giving the city parking revenue at the Ex considered a negative?

.@metromorning Talking to Professor Summer from UofT about Science Centre being torn down & moved to OP, notes the Moriyama designed Science Centre shouldn't be torn down. Newer isn't always better. Let's repair and creatively reuse what exists. #topoli #Onpoli If we thought of cities the way we do these heritage buildings, every city would look like Las Vegas. Neglect has led us here, it's worth investing to keep buildings like these. Prof doubts the Science Centre at OP will be better.

.@KingaSurmaMPP and @JonBurnside_DVE coming up on @metromorning shortly to discuss the Ontario Government tearing down the science centre and moving it to Ontario Place. #topoli #onpoli .@KingaSurmaMPP up now, why move the Science Centre to Ontario Place? Usual PC government claim the Science Centre is in “disrepair”. We thought it would be appropriate to jam Science Centre into OP. Surma won’t confirm cost of repairing Science Centre. #topoli #onpoli

Tuned into the OP to Science Centre press conference. Ford responds to a reporters Q. about how the science centre will fit, Ford notes that it will go into the pods, Cinesphere and a multi storey building. #topoli #Onpoli Are you going to bypass the city if you don't get your way there? Ford implies yes. Goes to his favourite "little red apples" quote.

Sharing some early observations after flipping through the 2,272 pages of the development application. First of all, the private spa is big! It's all you will see from the water and will dwarf everything else at Ontario Place. #topoli #onpoli ImageImageImage We're paving the lake! West Island will see more infill in an attempt to make public space after the spa takes over most of West Island. #topoli #onpoli Image
