The model shows just about every future structure currently in the works, from the newly announced Gehry-Mirvish towers to those well under construction, each building colour-coded to show its stage of development.

    I find the traffic in Toronto unbearable. When I lived there my job entailed a lot of city driving. I can't imagine doing that now.
