IIRC that sushi place that was there before was supposed to move back. Is this still happening?

Sushi Niwa - thanks, AI!

It would be exciting for that building to fill up its many vacant office floors. Historically, that complex has experienced vacancy well in excess of market averages.

The main and second levels of Rice Howard Place do feel much nicer and more modern now. While I liked the old stone and the colour, it was a bit dark before and was starting to feel dated.

So perhaps their new look will help improve their appeal to other potential tenants too.

This reno really 'cheapened' the look of the building. Pretty unfortunate outcome

That faux wood is really something

Ugh... How did that get the green light?! Seriously, that faux wood is fuuuugggllly.

The new Central Station entrance on the corner of this project should hopefully tie it together a bit more.

Much like most of the newly built residential all over the city. Must be a fad...hopefully a passing one.

Jesus, I really do have terrible taste in architecture cause I like the wood panels and how they break up the monolithic glass design with a warmer tone.

I will defend LED strip lighting with my LIFE, especially if it’s RGB ,

Wood panels, sure, but these look like the cheapest of the cheap vinyl flooring with the photo texture repeating every 10 cm.

I agree, I feel it adds some colour and warmth so it is fine, but you know these days if it isn't grey or blue the taste police will be on you.

I don't think a soul would object if it were real wood.
