These kind of comments remind me of TrekBBS where apparently anyone who likes a modern-era (i.e. Discovery & later) Star Trek show is a paid CBS plant.

So for Urban Toronto, the equivalent is liking a condo building in Mississauga means you're being paid by the architect to say that.

Yep you nailed it

This building is neither ugly nor typical. And it's certainly not in Toronto.

GTA is toronto duh

Not exactly, the GTA is a larger region and isn’t the same as the city of Toronto.

I don't see much to like regarding the design on these buildings, but, I've always found the stacked box aesthetic uninspiring and leaving much to be desired.
My main issues with this development remain the massing and the awful street level - the podium is an absolute afterthought. The towers being so close makes for some fairly closely hemmed in views if you're in the corner units facing the other towers.
Then again, this is Square One, so much of this development is in essence starting from a clean slate, and thereby there's not much local context to develop from, other than proposing higher and higher developments.
