6 h. ago Toronto's sketchiest condo complex put on blast for reputation in new lawsuit

Sure, downtown Toronto condos may be known as shoddily built and too poorly-designed to be very livable, but one complex undoubtedly takes the cake when it comes to bad reputations, and it's only getting worse.The ICE Condos complex has for years held the title of the sketchiest of its kind in the city, being the site of everything from shootings and balcony fires to garbage-filled stairways and bloody elevators that stall.A notorious ghost hotel from the outset due to the Airbnb-friendly nature of its units, the two-tower, Scotiabank Arena-adjacent development at 12-14 York Street has built up quite the lore in its 11 years of existence.The latest addition to the infamy is a lawsuit that gives a glimpse into how bonkers the goings-on at ICE really are; not the countless headline-worthy incidents, but the politics that take place behind closed doors.A recent decision by the Condominium Authority Tribunal shows that ICE board...

It seems like everyone has their theories on what exactly has been clicking for William Nylander this year in the playoffs.For some, it might be a calm attitude in his first year under head coach Craig Berube.For others, they might point out the migraine problems that derailed Nylander to miss multiple playoff games last year, though he still scored three times in four games.It could also be a veteran player seemingly having mastered the pace and play style of playoff hockey, in what is now his ninth consecutive go at the postseason.But the explanation might be much simpler than that: he's wearing a lucky suit.As detailed on the Sportsnet broadcast last night, Nylander has worn the same brown suit for three games in a row, scoring five goals over that span and potting at least one in all three contests.Willy Styles rolled up in the same suit tonight after a two-goal Game 1 😎 pic.twitter.com/PwtxjaGjmN— Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) May 8, 2025"That's quite the...

22 h. ago Shuttered Toronto landmark gets new lease on life as grocery business moves in

The fate of a well-loved Toronto landmark has taken another turn after the iconic Beaux Arts-style building was closed for three years.The former Postal Station C building at 1117 Queen Street was built in 1902, designed by famed architects David Ewart and Samuel G Curry, and served the neighbourhood's mail delivery needs for more than a century until it was officially closed in 2020.In the years that followed, it seemed that the fate of Postal Station C was nothing short of tragic, from being sold to sitting vacant, and riling up locals even more with the possibility of a futuristic new condo tower sprouting from the stately old building.Take a walk by Postal Station C today, and you'll see the building plastered in signs indicating that something new is moving, teasing work opportunities, and a new chapter for the building.    View this post on Instagram           A post shared b...
