Are you taking all these pictures that you post Qman?

He might have taken the first one - but the other 4 pictures he posted were taken by me.

I posted them and (about 40 others) on the RPB forum back on January 2nd - http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/showth...=1#post1776704

Waaaa!!! If you post something on a public forum, anyone can take them.

Who was the stooge that informed you of this? Or do I even have to ask. Some people are so damn petty.

Why do you think he is complaining? He stated it as fact, without comment as far as I can see. And he even was kind enough to provide a link to all of his pix. I personally appreciate the fact that anyone is taking and posting these pictures, and that qman is posting them on our forum. There's no need for any of us to engage in the pettiness that often plagues redpatchboys. So for the record, welcome to the forum, GabrielHurl!

I took it as an attack on Qman. If you choose to see it differently, that is fine. You don't find it odd that someone that has never posted here before but is on RPB would make that his first post? Sorry Paul, I smell a rat.

Thank you and welcome to the Forum.

I appreciate the pictures that Qman is taking/providing.

Let's not allow this thread to descend into another pissing match please.

Let's not allow this thread to descend into another pissing match please.

I'm not out to start any pissing match, but can we call it what it is?
BMO Field (or Renovated BMO Field if you wish).

This is not "New Exhibition Stadium". It is almost 10 years old and is not named after the original Exhibition Stadium.

Pics are great btw.

Just out of curiosity, has BMO renewed their naming rights deal? Wasn't it to end in 2016?

2016 is BMO's last year as naming rights holder. They haven't renewed and I'm not even sure if TFC has a jersey sponsor for this season either. BMO field will probably be named something else in 2017.

In that case, Exhibition stadium is good with me.

Rogers Field?

Wow I can't...hahaha, just kidding!!! Actually looks better to me in those shots. Not as legoland like. I love the shot with the old buildings and the new stadium. TO does that well as it respects old buildings yet builds some cool new ones. Vancouver for example tends to look mostly like one big mirror downtown.

Actually Toronto is not known as a city that has preserved their old buildings compared with other cities in North America.Toronto tore down many of their art deco style buildings from the early 20th century in the downtown core to make the same glass towers that you speak of in Vancouver. It looks like a South Asian city in terms of architecture. Other than Old City Hall and the Royal York, I think there is nothing aesthetically pleasing about downtown architecture, but that's my opinion....the flat iron building is also pretty interesting, and I'm sure there are a few other small buildings. I also like the character of those CNE buildings that mimic 19th century buildings where the firehall and mobile police station are located.

I actually don't mind BMO field at all, the concourse will be as wide as Tim Hortons Field, and it holds more in capacity. The roof will also make it more comfortable for fans in foul weather games shielding the sun, rain and snow. Real football in a real football stadium with seats running parallel to the field not in a bowl configuration which puts fans 50 yds away from the field at the 55 yd line will be great.

You forgot Union Station, Queens Park, The Hockey Hall of Fame... Also there is a building facade that was preserved inside the indoor atrium on the walk to the HHOF.

It's curious that the roof has a downward slope and then angles up again as it gets closer to the field. Drainage issues, I guess. But it looks like if you're in the very top row you could practically touch the roof. That won't be a very pleasant experience, especially for the claustrophobic.

[1argoholic]

Plenty of cool old buildings downtown. When I'm in the downtown core I never do anything but walk. TO also builds up from old buildings such as such as One Kind West Hotel. Keep the old feel from when it was a bank to the hotel it is today. Too many new mirrored buildings especially around the dome.

[Reggiemac]

Looks like the major roof loads are now transferred to the super columns on both sides. The blue temp columns days are numbered.

I love when you post the pictures. I am so looking forward to next year! Thanks!!!!
