Cool that it can be seen from the SkyDome! I always thought it unfortunate that the buildings you can see when the roof is open previously were just some junky condos.

Wow that looks great with the planting on the bridge! Hopefully the trees do well.

Toronto's culture of bare-minimumism showing itself as always.

I had horse tartare once at La Palette on Queen. I didn't order it, but there were protestors out front protesting the restaurant serving horse meat and the restaurant manager? owner? someone working there went out on the street by the front door with a tray of horse tartar on little crackers...

I get this point for sure. And Etobicoke around there is a hostile wasteland. On the other hand there are many many people who cannot afford or do not choose to have a car and because of that there are plenty of people who need housing and who have no issue with having no parking. And if we can...

Not storefronts on either building at the ground floor? Hopefully there is some micro-retail or something at least in these transit concourses.

In the future when we're all wearing AR glasses maybe we could have some software that blocks out certain buildings that we never want to see.

I encourage Mississauga to continue to build as many wild wacky bold towers to upstage Toronto as they want. Please upstage us and reveal Toronto to be as timid as it is and inspire us to do better. And it's great to see the boldness every time in photos or when I'm out that way or see the...

Oops my misreading — and that's so much worse! I had a bit of a BlogTO moment there saying Toronto was "getting" something that it wasn't. 😅

How are we only getting $6 million for affordable housing out of projects this significant? Will hardly do anything relative to the scale of the crisis we're facing as a city and seems like it would be a rounding error of a tiny amount in the budget of a project as big and expensive as this...

We used to go to the Dundas Street Grille for brunch when I was a kid sometimes after church, until my family stopped going to church. Not sure if it's in any way particularly good or what it's like these days, but diner-style breakfast food is pretty much always enjoyable and it has a place in...

I think this looks junky but IMO the previous version was just boring glass walls and I didn't like it either. The only thing that was good about it was the shape. A lot of it likely would have ended up being spandrel as well I imagine. If anything this new design just seems more realistic to...

Hoping for a lighting feature. I've heard people say on the forums that the City hates what happened with the Aura lighting, but the Aura lighting is the best part of it and makes the skyline and seeing the building from different parts of the city much more interesting. Having this triangular...

So cool to see @Koops65! I love seeing vantage points in your model from these types of perspectives. I also personally kind of really like how the observation deck is within the buildings and maybe even prefer it instead just being overtop of them looking down. This may have a very cool...

Was out in Missisauga the other day and wow these are starting to make an impact from a distance! Their zig-zag shape really draws the eye, and compliments the Absolute towers really well.

Definitely in the category of "I can't believe anyone thinks this is good."

Weirdly this piece of land is fenced off again. It was previously before and then the fences were removed, and now they're back. I don't think it's actually indicative of anything yet — my guess is it's being done to try to control what people are doing on the site, but it's annoying to have it...

Yeah I like it quite a lot too! It would become pretty iconic I think, and the kind of thing that people would stop and point out and notice.

I didn't have high hopes for this one, and my impression is people around her seem to regard Marlin Spring badly (I haven't followed which are their other past projects closely) but this seems surprisingly alright and solid. It's a bit clunky, but also at the same time the amount of precast...

I welcome increased population density along Dupont here, especially if they maintain some degree of fine-grain topology like this, though I agree it's not perfect and it feels a bit oppressive to me. Could end up looking sharp though. I live in the area and it's great and the street has a...
