They say the only thing engineers really have to worry about is gravity. Will the house fall down or bridge collapse? Or, will a landslide jeopardize the homes of innocent people in the name of mass transit. Up on Thursfield Cres. in north Leaside overlooking the Eglinton Ave. LRT, silence has fallen over the construction consortium Crosslinx in the wake of a project that has devastated the street. Three weeks after a road-widening left at least three properties in jeopardy. It seems the engineers are trying to figure out what to do. A release from residents detailing their futile resistance to the Thursfield horror story will leave most people wondering what on earth the contractor was thinking.
