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

    Anyone know why they've stopped putting up the windows? the thick strip along the edge on the north side is intriguing. can't wait to see what this will look like. totally original.

    you guys are funny. how much better does it look from a distance?

    Toronto Toronto | Sixty Colborne Condos | 82.29m | 25s | Freed | a—A

    do you have some insider info? I'm not too thrilled with the stackable look of this render. but the archway looks nice.

    forgive me, but what exactly is CurtainWall? sometimes when I see the pictures here, the blue looks metallic and sometimes it looks baby blue. I guess it depends on the way the light hits it which will be really interesting when it's done.

    thanks for that. So if the tower is on the south east side of church and colburne, won't this cast a shadow on the church? I forsee a community uprising over this.

    So is the archway entrance on Church Street? if that's right, what do you suppose fills the empty space to the east of the Tom Jones restaurant?

    I don't think this building was ever meant to be muted. with its star architect, I think he probably envisioned something totally different from what surrounds it - the brown Scotia Tower, the aquamarine green London, the white King West.

    I like the colour. it's a breath of fresh air. walking east on front street to the Royal York gives you a really view of L Tower. I think it will pop.

    today I saw cladding on the north side. I thought it looked good. it'll be a blue building basically. different than everything around it. it should really stand out

    Toronto Toronto | St Lawrence Centre Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | CreateTO | Hariri Pontarini

    no view is safe nowdays although I thought the colors were kind of a breath of fresh air although these these never look as good as the renderings. it would be nice if St. Lawrence Centre could just stay as it is. I can't imagine them building a highrise there. it would just detract from the...

    Toronto Toronto | Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    I totally agree that this is an absolute monster which seems rather overwhelming without being set back a bit but too early to tell. I was also just at the new Loblaws at Maple Leaf. Now that is Sobeys (at Bremner/Spadina) on major steroids although not as much of a meat market for single...

    Cemetary? isn't the church the cemetary for hundreds of unknown victims to some horrible outbreak in the 1800's? I heard Bruce Bell talking about this on CP24 during Halloween. If so, I wonder how prospective buyers would feel about buying a condo right next to a mass grave? Can anyone...

    yes, this. I don't get people either. hopefully it will look wonderful, just like the drawing.

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

    walked past yesterday and this one is already an imposing brute. can't imagine how overwhelming the boot would have been (perhaps too much).

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

    I was also upset over the loss of the boot just because it was such a unique structure and so many condos have no interesting bases nowadays. but I've come around too and am okay with it being gone because the design without now now looks more elegant and no one can say to residents that they...

    yes sorry my bad. note to self - never look at condo porn at 2am. yes, the L Tower is supposed to be 205 metres tall and yet in the video, which is a beautiful rendition, the L Tower looks as tall as the TD Canada Trust Tower which is 265 metres tall. don't know why they made them look the...

    I really like this video but at the 56 sec mark, it looks like L Tower is the same height at the TD Canada Trust Tower (which is 268 ft) while the L Tower is supposed to be 205 feet tall.
