I can't tell - is the residential portion also curtain wall?

As someone who lives in a Condo, direct sunlight is not actually your friend (queue sizzling noises due to junky window wall)

Does the number mean anything anyways? Unless I am wrong, I don't think the FSI number contemplates air rights or limiting distance agreements; either of which they could have in their pocket with 415 or covenant house.

The Goldberg report says heritage is demolished; but the actual architectural elevations show a complete retention of 401 and 405. Must be a victim of rushing to avoid inclusionary zoning.

Big tower here --- 76 storeys, Capital Developments. Application is up. Pretty funky design.

They are going to get jammed by Matlow on every dimension anyways so I'm sure 4 lifts will work out just fine l

This is not the current design.

To be clear, I meant Trump Toronto.

Deceptive Marketing to the end-purchasers. Most of the marketing materials are zoning renderings, not Site Plan-level. There are always clauses which suggest that the renderings are artist representations, but I am curious as to how far that could be stretched. Trump, for instance, was sued for...

Hopefully people start to realize Madison keeps doing this. And hopefully someone gets sued.

I can get behind this .... I just don't trust the City to actually do anything I guess!

I disagree (though I agree with 99% of your posts, as it would be) HOWEVER This area has a massive dearth of parkland, and the City has done absolutely jack with its funds except hoard them. It's more than enough space for a playground with some podium adjustments. The City could delete street...

Sapphire Blue would be amazing. This needs to transition between X condos and 88 --- like a dark to light.

Apparently based on today's story, they settled @ 56. https://urbantoronto.ca/news/2022/04/colliers-development-advisory-assists-landowners-through-development-process

Maybe I missed but who did the interior design. also kpmb?

I attended this as well and it included a few unique elements 1. People accusing Layton of misappropriating Section 37s 2. People accusing the developer of paying the engineers to fake reports 3. The head of the RA (I think) saying that the tower should by much taller but also saying the...

Oh yes - my bad. I meant slab edge detail. It looks like the balcony glass is inset into a curved slab edge.

That's a massive improvement. Is it still IBI? Looks advanced for IBI ... Edit: Looks like a big curved slab edge. Also looks like the slabs are of varying depths every second floor based on the shadows from the vertical i-beams.

Jeeeeeesus this is ugly on the inside. The kids rooms look absolutely terrifying and clearly designed by people without kids.

And yet the Neigborhood directly to the east is trying to squash the development which is already at a modest height for the node ...
