Oh didn’t realize the South side had damage as well. I walked by and the street is still cordoned off. I live a block over and heard the sirens and thought it’s another false alarm at a condo building and just slept through it. Sadness for the loss of all the property

I am glad your building was not affected.
There’s a developer involved with some of the properties that caught fire. He looks like a piece of work. He had run-ins with the law in 2014.
I used to work in a gallery nearby almost 30 years ago, and I used to get souvlaki from the nice family that ran Scollard Variety back then. It became more of a Greek greasy spoon with cheap breakfasts from 2010ish-2020ish, before it closed and Thanos Tripi opened Souvla.
Apparently Piano Piano has replaced closed Gare de l’Est in that neighbourhood.

Glad they have another cheaper rent location running.
So many Portuguese and Italian bakeries, delis, trattorias, and hot tables have closed over the last decade.
The doner spots that sign the leases for the spaces never seem to be busy.
I’m sort of going out of my way to avoid chains and chain fast food in Toronto proper these days.
