Not sure if the city bought that our or it is still owned by the club. And then you have a small condo development. And then the one that really gets affected is Casa Loma ( May have spelled this wrong ) their parking lot and building is right at the north / east corner of the tracks.
Based on the boards we've been given, any widenings north of the tracks will fall within the city's existing right of way or CN's. Those are the boulevards down Waverley. What may require some expropriation are the AT paths. But even that's unlikely given that the city can widen the sidewalks into it's right of way and not onto private land. And everything to the South side of Taylor has about a 50' right of way before the private property starts.
