    Toronto Toronto | One Bloor West | 308.6m | 85s | Tridel | Foster + Partners

    I must say, for all the financial woes and delays this building has faced, its final form lives up to the hype. Feels like this will be a classic building that is highly recognizable. Nice to have a statement tower in Toronto when so much of what goes up is mediocre.

    Toronto Toronto | Pinnacle One Yonge | 351.85m | 106s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    Only 15? Is this even a supertall yet? It's getting close no doubt. I'd imagine it's closer to 25 just by eyeballing but what do I know. Side note, I do like how this will create another peak in the skyline even if the tower itself isn't anything to write home about.

    Yea. I’ve been on hiatus for a while, but I was just catching up on this thread thinking the same thing. It’s not bad… but for Toronto’s tallest building it’s hardly striking. Just looks like it’ll be 350m of infill and not a tower to be remembered which is a shame. At least there’s The One...

    A few very faraway shots from the island. Nice to see this popping out from so far away!

    Toronto Toronto | 11 YV | 221.91m | 66s | Metropia | Sweeny &Co

    This could’ve been better for sure, slightly better decisions when it comes to materials and cladding would’ve gone a long way, but it hasn’t turned out nearly as bad as I thought it would and it’s not a blue/green square box. Some different colours and amazing massing help it stand out. Still...

    Vaughan Toronto | Festival Condominiums | 189.05m | 59s | Menkes | Arcadis

    I feel like this sort of balcony pattern is a little overdone these days but the colours and material selections here make it pop and stand out still. This is quite a solid project.

    Vaughan Toronto | CG Tower | 188.97m | 60s | Cortel Group | BDP Quadrangle

    The Vaughan skyline is both quite imposing and impressive when approaching on the 407 eastbound. Here to do my part and add a few faraway photos.

    Toronto Toronto | Rail Deck Development | 239.43m | 72s | LIUNA | Sweeny &Co

    One can only hope that one way or another this uninspired mess never sees the light of day. Sure the current railways are wasted space and annoying to get around, but it also creates an extremely rare opportunity to completely transform downtown Toronto and there’s only gonna be one shot to...

    Toronto Toronto | CIBC SQUARE | 241.39m | 50s | Hines | WilkinsonEyre

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted regularly around here, but I’ve got a job in the industry now, so I no longer have to drive all the way into Toronto on free time to get photos! Snapped a couple of CIBC square as I was on the way to other projects.

    Toronto Toronto | Birch House & Indigenous Hub | 50.3m | 13s | Dream | BDP Quadrangle

    Alright so here’s my problem with precast panels and in particular precast brick. This development is really solid overall, so not by any means trying to disparage it, but the lines/spaces between the precast brick panels really hinder the overall cohesiveness of the build and instead of...
