ICE Condo - Construction Update
The Toronto Condo Boom
Within the past 15 years downtown Toronto has been transformed by the largest urban construction wave since the 1920s and 30's Manhattan building spree that created the likes of the Chrysler and Empire State Buildings. Toronto's boom is profound and has lead great and not so great minds to ponder the impact of hundreds of towers and skyscrapers built within the core within a short period of time. There are benefits, yes and there are also concerns of capacity and infrastructure. Which takes precedent? A mobile car free workforce, none transit dependent young professionals or an ageing underground sewer and transit infrastructure that can't keep pace. There's no easy choice I guess, choose one or the other, no in between. Doesn't have to be that way I hope. Look south to that future island in the sea, to see our future. No doubt.
