Streetcar Map for Toronto Suggestion: “

At the risk of being ostracized by fans of the site Spacing Toronto for suggesting that the site could be better if it wasn’t just about talking about how wonderful Toronto is and questioning why the rest of the world hasn’t come to the same conclusion I’ll mention an interesting post about a redesign of the Streetcar map for Toronto. Matthew Blackett has already taken the time to talk with TTC Chair and staff and has visualized a response to the current map which does not show something that bothers him, ‘people have no idea which subway stations have streetcars routes passing through or which streetcar routes intersect with one another’. His map above tries to make that more understandable. I’ll be curious to see how the map may evolve through comments to his post and how he might turn the map into reality at some point.
