April was yet another fast-paced month for UrbanToronto, with many projects approaching completion and beginning to more closely resemble their renderings. Since last month, the weather has heated up and so has construction and development activity across the GTA. The most popular headline of the month was an April Fool's parody article presenting plans to re-clad of the CN Tower as fact, followed by a less fictitious story documenting preliminary calls for new transit lines for downtown Toronto and beyond.
