Gerry: The author of this article needs to get ALL of his facts straight, for the reader. Bishop's Castle is located in the WET Mountains, NOT the West Mountains. If the reader was truly interested in......

Edward LAMB: I am very familiar with this tunnel having personally "discovered" the place way back in 1969... The following, if you please, is an excerpt from my own story : I had, one day, roaming through Riverside Drive......

Arnie: When I lived in NYC, the Biker Gangs where almost non-existent. When they started to show up in the 60's, the other pedestrian gangs would kick their asses, for being loud mouth assholes. I now live in......

in response to: Rue Prince Arthur by CE

CE: It's a pedestrian street. Cars can travel across it at intersections but they're mostly narrow one-way streets so not much traffic travels across the street. Cafe and restaurant terraces spill out onto the......

jeeff: btw: shot number one happens to showcase two new toronto upgrades.. 1) coloured cn tower. i don't know how long red-and-white will continue--they can do all sorts of crazy patterns. i find my shots......

in response to: Co-branding Strategy by jeeff

CE: I agree that the buildings are a bit banal and utilitarian but also quite stately looking. Nonetheless, they look better than 95% of most new construction. I would agree that the two buildings......

in response to: Debaliviere Place by maybetoday

maybetoday: All but one of the buildings pictured were built between 1915 and 1920. One building was built in 1930. There hasn't really been any new construction here for quite a while. The......

K Bernstein: I lived in an apartment building at Eastern Parkway and Troy Avenue in the 1950s. Eastern Parkway was a beautiful street, with its two pedestrian malls with benches and trees. The street was lined with......

in response to: Eastern Parkway Memories by Unknown

EvilGentleman: 34 - Neither pedestrians nor drivers have a clue what a crosswalk is 35 - Jaywalkers cut off police cars and nothing happens 36 - People prefer to shove shopping carts into snowbanks rather than bring them......

Cameo: The cabbies' fault no doubt... They are by far the worst drivers on the roads in this city. They are a menace to both cyclist, pedestrian and other motorists. Two days ago......

in response to: Crunch by jeeff

Cameo: wow... Even the cabs in NYC have the cow-catchers in front of them now. These are obviously there to protect the car as it hits "things." But, does it also protect the driver from......

Peter: i like how the pedestrian matches the building behind her......

in response to: Grocery by Peter

Chris Erb: This walking bridge claims to be the longest pedestrian-only bridge in the world. I'm skeptical however as there seems to be a culture of exaggeration around here when it comes to such things. ......

in response to: Melting Vanishing Point by Marlo

EvilGentleman: Since the original bridge's ironwork was built 120 years ago, in 1886, the C.P.R. Saint Lawrence Bridge has been used as a pedestrian walkway by the Mohawks of Kahnawake. It became somewhat easier to cross......

in response to: Train Derails on Bridge IV: The Aftermath (With Graf Train Passing By) by EvilGentleman

Peter: i was gonna mention something similar. ksedge, do you find that there are fewer people on street-level because of these pedestrian walkways? i was wondering... it seems like that might be the case, but then......

in response to: You\'re in Calgary When... by ksedge

Chris Erb: Although there are currently no plans to remove bridges or to discontinue building new ones, the system has received some criticism and controversy in recent years. The system has been blamed for being a potential......

Tyfoid Kid: In the 5th picture down you can see the other pedestrian bridge (the Washington Ave Bridge) that connects the East and West Banks of the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus. This bridge is......

in response to: Bridge Seat by Tyfoid Kid

Chris Erb: Where does the bridge take you to and from. it looks like a nice walk, we have something similar here where they turned an old train bridge into a walking bridge. There's a......

in response to: Bridge Seat by Tyfoid Kid

C.: But from the "Pedestrian Gridlock" thing, I can understand the problem. Same with the allergies. I live in Calgary, and it's far smaller that Montreal. I've never had a problem with moving away from the......

in response to: Montreal Goes Non-Smoking: Good or Bad? by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: From what I have seen so far, I think I prefer taking pictures of the elderly as opposed to the young and beautiful. The texture of elderly faces is so much more detailed and ##real##,......

joey: when the nose fell, did the nose fall on an unsuspecting pedestrian? catherine- did you write the ad? or are you a voice over personality?...

in response to: My Lion Has Got No Nose by Catherine Penfold-Waxman

jack: instead of tearing down the west side highway with all that wonderful cobblestone, they should have made it a pedestrian way. new yorkers should have more green and more free walking space....

the new guy: I just moved to Toronto this past fall. I have lived in Vancouver, a small college town in the U.S. midwest (Iowa City, IA) and most recently, Edmonton. Having only ever visited Toronto......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

James: The move he made to dump her bike, the foot against wheel and pull on seat is a move taught to cops, so I doubt if he was charged for anything. Why did he......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

pedestrian pal: Rather than go on and on about cyclist versus motorist lets consider this. People who litter are pigs, people who seek out confrontations like this are fools or worse yet, holier than thou. ......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Old Kensington Dog: A couple of points re. the confrontation specifically, and Kensington Market in general: -The SUV in the photos is owned by the business accross the street, not the "Motorist". His four cylinder smaller car with......

commonsense11: Obvious that this site is drop-in for bike courier trash, jusdging by sympathy for "Leah" (I've met her too, meth-head cranky bitch that she is) Hope her bike is fucked but good, that'll teach her......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Respect: Let's make a deal: You litter, I throw it back at you. If you park in the bike lane, I smash out your rear brake lights and key your car as I fly by. You cut me......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

so right about some drivers: To the person who wrote: "the most entitled drivers (excluding cabbies and anything oversized) are luxury sedan drivers. It is no surprise that motorist was driving an Acura." So right!! When I'm waiting to cross the street......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Jerry: As this city used to be called "Hogtown" I thing "Pigtown" would be more apropo. Why? 1) The rectitude laced moron courier (and as a pedestrian I have only contempt for the arrogant, spoilt, disrespectfull cyclists,......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

driver and cyclist: Cyclist should really get a clue and stop trying to a motorvehicle when its convenient for them, and a pedestrian when its not. I can't count the number of times that I am turning right,......

mr_walker: too much writing to digest. tried to leave a comment earlier, now i'm so text-drunk i'm not sure if it made it ... anyways, GOOD ON YA, LEAH! i've done the same (i.e. return......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Both sides: I have read/heard both side of the story. Unfortunately, the "motorist's" side was stated by his fiancé and not by him, as the actual participant. Both sides are plausible but I am still......

vancouver: Having read the story on CBC.ca and clicking on the link, I have to wonder about people. To the courier: It was fucking trash, hopefully you didn't get hurt. Some of the pics show you......

jonnathan: This is a bit off topic, but it addresses the problems of cyclists vs motorists in toronto. I am both and find cyclists are far worse on the road than drivers. I was sitting......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Cedar Waxwing: I think they are both idiots and need anger management help. I don't condone the motorists actions but I don't think Leah's actions were warranted either. I figure I would be mighty pissed if someone......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

Fat ass: Wow. Go motorist. I'm not a motorist, but that cunt of a cyclist was out-of-line. She invaded his car over a fucking piece of litter in TORONTO of all places. Boo fucking hoo. She deserved......

anon (toronto-HSE-ppp4056517.sympatico.ca): I read every post from beginning to end. It wasn’t a very productive day at work… Some people made me laugh others pissed me off and a lot made me think. This is an example where you......

in response to: Motorist Vs Courier by hool

TOBoy: Unfortunately with her action she allowed the focus to turn into a "who did what and what was worse"..I dont condone her reaction, but she did have a cup of coffee thrown at herand for......

Peter: as both a cyclist and a pedestrian, i can certainly empathize with your thoughts about the flip/flop double-standard. cyclists who treat peds no better than autos treat cyclists are no better than the auto drivers......
