Toronto is seeing a skyscraper boom, and many new residential towers have popped up around the waterfront. CIBC Square stood out as it is a commercial development, and for the longest time there wasn't as much demand for downtown offices. A new long distance bus terminus recently opened at the base of the building, offering a more dignified experience for commuter and intercity buses.
The waterfront is now home to many residents, but I wonder whether the social infrastructure is in place, such as schools, community centres, and the like.
The first major redevelopment downtown to bring back residents into the core was Cityplace, which is still under construction over a decade on. We're seeing more redevelopments around the periphery as well, although prices have shot up incredibly since.
The condo boom has also moved into the suburbs, which are trying to build their own downtowns and increasing density. The Highway 7 corridor is busy with construction, and thanks to dedicated busways now in place, getting around has gotten easier, although traffic jams persist.
