Yes, there are costumes. Yes, they're fabulous.The front entrance. But while Bones brings the drama, the house itself is all calm vibes and cozy charm.A home office. Now listed for $1,389,000, this four-bed, three-bath semi is surprisingly spacious, impeccably maintained, and—according to Fraser—shockingly quiet for being on a main street.The living room. From the outside, it looks modest (aside from the towering skeleton in the front yard), but step ins...

10 h. ago Divisive Toronto bus lanes shortened but not for the reason you think

There's one proposed road change that has been kicking up more controversy in Toronto lately than even cycling paths and construction-related closures: bus lanes.As part of its RapidTO project to prioritize the flow of transit vehicles, the City revealed plans for TTC-only lanes on Bathurst and Dufferin streets, two thoroughfares that, like most major roads in Toronto, are perpetually backed up with traffic.While the dedicated lanes were recommended in light of the congestion that will inevitably come from the upcoming FIFA World Cup — for which we are hosting six matches at BMO Field next summer — they are something some residents have been requesting, at least on Dufferin, for years.However, those who have gone to considerable lengths to advocate for the additions have now been met with equally strong dissent from locals, many of whom are business owners, who argue that the on-street parking that would be...

In a story that is starting to feel a little repetitive, vandals have once again cut down Toronto's most controversial automated speed enforcement camera.The Parkside Drive automated speed enforcement camera was cut down yet again overnight on Tuesday, marking the sixth time the device has been chopped down in the last eight months.Toronto Police had even taken recent steps to prevent further vandalism, including the addition of a surveillance camera this summer in the wake of another downing incident.It seems you can install a speed camera and you can reinstall a speed camera — heck, you can even install a surveillance camera to monitor the speed camera — but in the end, none of these answers have proven to be effective long-term solutions.First installed in 2021 following a fatal five-car collision, the camera is estimated to have raked in over $7.3 million in fines to date through just shy of 68,600 traffic tickets.While championed by vulnerable road us...
