Wow, that terracotta looks fantastic. I certainly wish more developments aspired to such a high quality level of detailing.

Also, those original G&M doors have me lamenting how far we've regressed when it comes to fenestration of modern buildings (not Well specific, just in general these days).
 
A couple of early evening views of The Well. The building structures - the overall project size envelope - it basically now complete, except for the two penthouse floors in Building F, the south-east, and tallest residential building. Still a fair amount of cladding to go though, before the finished look is complete.

(Also, in the lower left corner, just to the side of the new CIBC Square building the crane and top of one of the Sugar Wharf Phase 1 buildings can now be seen from eleven floors up in the King and Bathurst Streets area, peeking out over the top of The Well's Building A.)

...the WELL looks great --- but Imma never gonna stop being mad about the dumb Section-37 deal from 2016 that settled for $1-MILLION in 'off-site' cash as an appropriate "Affordable Housing" commitment from a 1,700 residential unit redevelopment...?!?!? 😡

Want to know what astonishes me, is that people think it is ok to make a private business give any money for affordable housing. If the government wants affordable housing, they should buy the land and build it.
