    Toronto Toronto | Peter Gilgan Centre for Research and Learning | ?m | 21s | Sick Kids | Diamond Schmitt

    Maybe so, but is Kensington an adjunct to some take on Urbandreamer's appraisal of this project? By posting a picture of this building in the least attractive way possible, what is he/she saying? What exactly is "terrible" about this image UD? Is "Sick Kids" a waste of time 'cause it photographs...

    Toronto Toronto | Peter Gilgan Centre for Research and Learning | ?m | 21s | Sick Kids | Diamond Schmitt

    The word "terrifying" refers to what in that pic? Kensington at dusk? A really cool building app 1 kilometre away? The oddest post I've come across on this site in the 3 months since I've been a member...

    Toronto Toronto | L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    That's going to be a very dramatic curve to bring the north and south sides together in just 12 stories...

    Mississauga Toronto | Absolute World | 169.77m | 56s | Cityzen | MAD architects

    Over the past 15 years or so, I've driven into downtown TO with friends and relatives who all thought that Mississauga's downtown was actually downtown TO... After a while I stopped pointing things out and let them experience it naturally... Many out-of-towners make that assumption... It's part...

    Toronto Toronto | SIX50 King West | ?m | 16s | Freed | Core Architects

    Nice photos... The choice of cladding, ample mullions and general shape and lines of this building remind me of a truncated version of Aura (which I am quite hopeful for)... Question: There seems to be no shortage of admirers of this project, and critics of the later... Any reasons why?

    Toronto Toronto | The Livmore | 138.68m | 43s | Vertica | IBI Group

    In the end it will all be about execution and choice of materials, but I love what I see... Very bold and northern European looking... Should be gorgeous (in an insane sorta way) if approved...

    Toronto Toronto | L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    Me as well... As more of the cladding does up, and less of the bright-blue moisture sealant (Tivar?) lining catches your eye, the more impressive it looks... It's going to be a beautiful tower...

    Toronto Toronto | St Regis Toronto Hotel and Residences | 281.93m | 58s | JFC Capital | Zeidler

    Agreed... I like the understated effect.... Very un-Donaldlike...

    Toronto Toronto | Ïce Condominiums at York Centre | 234.07m | 67s | Lanterra | a—A

    I might be wrong but if you look at the second level with glass, you will see double doors that open to a narrow but tangible balcony... It might not be ideal for bbq'ing, but there appears to be a 2-3 foot distance between the two... The lowest cladded level also has ample balcony room on the...

    Toronto Toronto | Ïce Condominiums at York Centre | 234.07m | 67s | Lanterra | a—A

    Fantastic contrast... 67 and 57 stories of this will be stunning...

    Would love to see more photos of the balcony glass if anyone was near the site... Thx...

    Future Westbank Project (Bjarke Ingels)

    To me, it's a sign of a City that is growing up... If you had a new Ingels going up in London say, where would you put it? Canary Wharf? Mayfair? Commercial district? South of the Thames (ala the Shard)?... A truly big city houses interesting projects in more places than just "the core"... I...

    OLG Toronto/GTA casino proposal (where to put it?)

    coolcanadian, you are absolutely bang on from my opinion...

    Toronto Toronto | Ïce Condominiums at York Centre | 234.07m | 67s | Lanterra | a—A

    This and Sick Kids are the most exciting things going up in the city right now... This could (knock on wood) be one of those handful of buildings that really become iconic for a city... Was just in TO a few days ago and didn't get up and close to Ice (unlike Sick Kids), but wow that cladding pops...

    Toronto Toronto | Living Shangri-La Toronto | 214.57m | 66s | Westbank | James Cheng

    Tremendous photo updates... This is a first class project from stem to stern, IMO...

    Toronto Toronto | Peter Gilgan Centre for Research and Learning | ?m | 21s | Sick Kids | Diamond Schmitt

    This might end up as Bay's most impressive building... Well done all of those that contributed...

    Toronto Toronto | L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    I'd love to see some pics if anyone was in the area... A humble request from an out-of-town forumer...
