20 h. ago Toronto neighbourhood throwing a surprise street festival this weekend

Toronto's Baldwin Village is about to come alive this Saturday, July 5, as local merchants band together for an impromptu street party that promises to bring big energy to one of the city's most underrated neighbourhoods.The one-day celebration will feature a dynamic mix of music, food, art, and dance, plus at least a couple of artisan markets; there's the potential for a surprise fashion show, too! Each business along Baldwin is curating its own lineup of talent, and so far, the street is shaping up to host a mix of live bands, DJs, visual artists, and performers.It's a grassroots event in every sense. There's no formal street closure (yet), no major sponsors, or flashy branding; it’s just a collective effort by independent business owners who want to breathe new life into this little tucked-away village. Despite being home to some of the most charming patios and low-key restaurants in the city, it still flies under the radar for many Torontonians. But thi...

21 h. ago Eglinton Crosstown LRT's September opening date looking less and less likely

While much headway has been made toward opening Toronto's Eglinton Crosstown LRT in September as expected, it's starting to look like the 13.5-year-long project may be delayed even further as we get closer to the fall.The regional transit agency's move to hand the line over to the TTC two weeks ago was generally considered an indication that locals were finally on the verge of getting to ride the problem-plagued line, which was initially scheduled to launch in 2020.Prior to that big announcement, signage had already appeared along Eglinton explaining that bus stops were being "updated in preparation for" the LRT's inauguration, and TTC staff were re-deployed and re-trained along the route.Though internal budgets anticipated a summer 2025 debut, anonymous sources recently cited a September 2025 opening, though with the caveat that "an eleventh-hour problem" during ...
