  6. Not that I dislike the Bach/beethovan, it just has a very limited appeal & makes our city look even more conservative then it already is.

    Artist from EVERY genre should be able to have their music played through out the day all along Dundas, street with a digital panel showcasing what is playing, with the ability to vote on what should be played more often. Giving London that digital/high tech/creative/etc feel that London is trying to attain.

    This though CANNOT be restrained or else it will lose its focus, I mean yes some music is not exactly pg rated, but…

  7. London is obsessed with retail big box sprawl which basically pushes the boundaries of our city and creates empty retail spaces throughout the inner city. This is madness. I probably don't have to convince you, but look around and you will see places like Westmount Mall, which was once thriving and is now empty because developers built their sprawl at Wonderland and Southdale. It makes no sense whatsoever and we the taxpayers pay for all the infrastructure that comes with the sprawl. Stop the madness!! Our city's priority should start at the centre and work it's way out. If we…

  8. This is Londons biggest asset for tourism, Lets restore the gardens this year and promote this as one of Southwestern Ontaio's best parks.

    At 300 acres, Springbank Park is the largest park in London. On 30 kilometers of trails, visitors find everything from naturally wooded areas to perfectly manicured formal gardens. One of the city's most popular spots for runners and roller bladers, the park is also home to picnic areas, soccer fields, a wading pool and the well-known attraction Storybook Gardens. The recently opened Springbank Gardens, a restoration of the popular 1940s park attraction Wonderland Gardens, includes an open-air…

  9. The Thames is at the heart (literally, figuratively and historically) of London. We need to protect and utilize this asset. Many people are instinctively drawn to the water. Imagine reclaiming unattractive/industrial riverfront land and creating a boardwalk of sorts, featuring small businesses that get Londoners and out and about (downtown and elsewhere), support festivals, etc. This would be done in conjunction with protecting and preserving the beautiful natural areas that surround the Thames and cleaning the water in the Thames.

    Our river is our identity.

  10. London needs to develop its riverfront. It cannot be just parks, bike/walking paths, and playgrounds. It needs restaurants, artisans, a night life. A place where people want to hang out. People of all ages. A place to share ideas and lives. Keep big business away. The more "little" people there are, the better, as these are the people that will truly keep the place vibrant because they will care most about its future.

  11. I understand what happened last St. Paddy's Day; however, there seems to be a touch of upper handedness going on there in London. We're not from small town Ontario so get the drift; however, one does get much more cooperation with honey!

  13. Just a few years ago, dog owners were not required to clean up after their dogs and now the sidewalks are free of dog excrement. It's time to do the same thing with cigarette butts - especially in the Richmond and Dundas area. We walked through there last night on our way to dinner and commented we would be embarrassed to bring guests downtown. We felt as though we were in a ghetto.

  14. That building is a huge eye sore & an embarrassment to the city, to have it at our main intersection. It needs to come down its a hideous piece of 70's architecture.

    I propose that when it is demolished to turn it into a public square, full of benches a fountain & maybe an icecream stand or something alike.

    Either that or create a new huge mixed-use building that adds the city skyline & will finally give Richmond & Dundas the reputation it & boost it needs.

  15. London is a much "cleaner" industrial town as compared to Sarnia or Hamilton. Medical, University and College resources are significant employers. Good city to live in and raise kids. Need to increase green space especially with new developments to try to reduce increased temperature from all the roads and pavement.

  16. Randy Richmond tells us that London doesn't want Toronto like population density. No we don't; We should strive for even more density than sprawling Toronto. Paris, France, is only a fraction of London's area. How is that possible? It has a population density 25 Xs greater than ours. Sprawl must end. We need some truly creative solutions to our housing needs. Maybe we should look outside North America, to places as distant as Baku, Azerbaijan, and their White City redevelopment to find inspiration. (Note: I said inspiration. I am not suggesting we simply copy the ideas of others.)

  17. Reputable cities have reputable skylines. As a child and still to this day I find something fascinating about catching a glimpse of a city skyline from a highway or hilltop. For a city under of nearly half a million and even compared to cities under a million London has a great skyline. Buildings such as one London place, TD towers, and the newly completed renesiance, there is a couple new ones going but Id like to see more. I was reading an article recently saying that the renisaince sold out no problem so there is a market for high rise…

  18. I have been a customer of London Transit for many of the 50 years I have lived here. London Transit is bursting at the seams, London can simply not grow any longer with the current strategy.
    When compared to other cities, such as Toronto, Hamilton, Niagara Falls and even Lindsay, our transit system is abhorrent! Many major routes still run at half hour increments. For instance, to make it downtown for 9:00 am to be to work from where I live, I have to catch the # 14 Highbury at 8:04, and transfer to the #13A Wellington at 8:10. God…

  19. The internet is a utility and people in downtown/old south/ old east London/ could use this to encourage innovation, communication, and attract businesses to the core. Also as a part of this we need more art/performance spaces that are inexpensive for artists to use. One of the amazing things about cities like Edmonton, Kitchener/Waterloo, Kingston, is that they create the spaces for their artists to work and show their work. Nuit Blanche this last weekend was a great example of what happens when the arts are out in public and are easy for the artists and public to access. But…

  20. To start on a positive note i think the roundabout at hale and trafalgar was a great idea and solution to congestion in the area. I hope to see similar solutions, they dont all need to be as large scale and costly.

    Something needs to be done about the train that runs through the core. It backs up traffic so that vehicles are backed up at lights for blocks on Richmond and Adelaide sometimes. There is an overpass on Quebec Street and a subway on talbot but other than that no good traffic flow north to south through the core.
