Those dark balcony frames/guards will certainly help this mess a bit. Certainly doesn't instill (aka instil) much confidence in BentallGreenOak with another HPA design: 100 Simcoe UT

@allengeorge doesn't stand a chance in the Professional Cynics League (sponsored by PCL) ...against @Amare . Allen has already let a couple of quasi-positive comments slip through while Amare has been batting a 1000 for years. 🫣

Can't wait to see your take on 110 Eglinton East, Monsieur Velasco (aka @steveve ).

Yes they are on the team with Heatherwick Studio and BIG for the Google HQ in London. How did I know?

After the rendering vs build debacle that is Nobu... I'm sure there are still plenty of forum members with trust issues when comes to Madison. 🤒 Kinda wish this was a JV with another developer with a better delivery track record (less VEing on the resume ;-).

Any one missing this beauty?? Original plan UT

@TwinHuey It's easy to click a like 👍 every time we see one of your fab drone shots... but every once in a while, after viewing so, so many of your spectacular aerials... it's time to actually type the words thank you!! 🥳

My nephew is a mole in Kerri Voumvakis' office on the 12th floor. Apparently the new massing is inspired by the human hand .... I can sorta see it. The draft logo isn't very welcoming but at the prices they'll be asking I can kinda understand:

They've reworked the tower, which is much thinner and taller (tops out @ 307.8572 metres)... now a largely residential building. There are still some issues to resolve around elevators: 1. where to actually put them 2. avoiding @ProjectEnd's derisive comments regarding cab to units ratio

^ This guy gets your humour (but he's having some issues).

It's pretty clear now that one local arch firm can not only design beautiful curved glass and other materials (across multiple projects)... those curves show up in the actual builds. Unfortunately Arcadis ain't HPA

I quite like the materials/building envelope on just one of these buildings... but 3 of them the same feels like over-kill imo. Wouldn't mind seeing some subtle variations on the theme for 2 of 'em.

Yeah this (like all) curtain-wall will obviously change depending on light conditions and angle of photos... but @tstormers chose a pov where it looked quite spectacular. tstormers The diamonds of CIBC Square are often stunning... but also flat and borderline unattractive from some...

I can't believe I'm writing this out loud about Kirkor... but I kinda like the podium and even the busy upper floors/tower crown. I realize when built/executed this will be a material mess, but hey Kirkor... this a historic moment in pictures for me. 🙃 Maybe I need to up my meds though.

^ ^ ^ ^ Any chance of securing a corporate sponsor so the muddy Don looks a wee bit prettier when it enters the new river valley?? Link
