The bike lanes on Bloor St. W. look really good, making the street look nice and inviting to walk around, one wants to visit all the little shops. That's not the case with Eglinton Ave. W., the street feels like a highway.

They're the same in terms on width, and types of storefronts. Eglinton now has a subway under it, like Bloor street.

Eglinton would be so much better with a bike lane.

A pedestrian was killed today along Eglinton Ave. W.
This is the part of Eglinton that does not have a protected bike lane.
The street is way too fast, and is being used as an entrance to the highway.
Build the the bike lanes, slow the traffic down. Make this portion of Eglinton a nice street again.
There is now a subway underneath the street, that cost billions to build, but the surface traffic is still given up to speeding cars.
The city wanted to build a bike lane, but has back tracked on that.
Other portions of Eglinton have a bike lane, and the stores are doing better, and the street feels more livelier in those areas.

Lady Mischief and the tree. She loves watching for birds from this spot. Hours of her day are spent like this. Cat contentment at 100%. #cats #caturday #catsofMastodon #catsofFediverse #blackcat
Enrichment for #lordpercival is pretty easy... he discovers a big rock... you can see the gears turning in his little #cat brain. And the neighbor's long grass provides savannah conditions. He watches the morning parade of parents dropping their kids at daycare at the end of the street... undetected, periodically bug-hunting. #caturday #cats #catsofMastodon #catsoffediverse #tuxedocat
The day lily provides perfect camouflage for #lordpercival on a damp morning when conditions are perfect for listening to birds and bug-hunting. What a life! #cats #caturday #catsofMastodon #catsofFediverse #tuxedocat
Spent the day gardening and #lordpercival managed to escape the house in order to come out and supervise. He was not put off by the wet grass of my #nomowmay front yard. Content to lick rain off the blades! #cats #catsofMastodon #catsofFediverse #tuxedocat
#lordpercival and Lady Mischief share the window views of the forsythia. #caturday #cats #catsofFediverse #catsofMastodon #tuxedocat #blackcat

Longest outing so far this spring for #lordpercival, who spent close to two hours lounging in the sun while I weeded the garden. #cats #catsofMastodon #catsofFediverse #tuxedocat
