Scotiabank is planning on selling its Bay Street tower (the red one, with the v-notch in the top), and experts say it could go for $1 billion. Don’t you think it would make a nice Torontoist worldwide headquarters? Of course, we’d have to paint it white to match the site.
The National Post is the latest to “borrow” our “I Want Your Job” column idea, after The Grid did the same last year. (Though they, at least, changed the name.) You’re all very welcome!
Do you use Megaupload or any of its subsidiary sites? Not anymore.
And who is writing this amazing Tumblr about horrible Toronto real estate? It is amazing.

Scotiabank wants to take its name off something in the city?

You meant the “Scotiabank City of Toronto, Ontario”. Use the proper name…

I know it’s a joke, but it’s unlikely that they would change the name. TD Centre, Commerce Court, and Royal Bank Plaza aren’t owned by the namesake banks either.
