Some condos mandate white window coverings. Maybe management here can mandate everyone go to Dollorama and pick up a few of these to help them out.

What’s better than arches? Lit arches.

Oct 29, West facing facade.

Honestly, curse the UT-er who taught me what oil-canning was. It's like bad kerning, once you leam to see it, you can never unsee it.

What returning to this thread must've felt like:

What’s really maddening is I believe if you were to sit have a conversation with every individual architect at any of our banal local firms they would recognize work like this is subpar and destructive to the city… but somehow after design by committee and accountants they consistently churn out...

Multiplexes are one place where I want bigger and better, the only reason I’d watch a movie in theatres is because I want the best picture and the best sound. The current Scotiabank Theatre has one of the top IMAX projection systems in the country and once it’s downsized it won’t be the same...

What in the gilded age, Trump-esque, faux Pharaoh interior is that

I’ve snooped around every time I pass by but haven’t gotten any clues yet. I believe some UT members have known for a while but cards are close to their chest and lips are sealed. I believe the one clue was “a chain that hasn’t opened a downtown location yet”. Which sounds boutique and...

Also visited today—and got a free muffin to celebrate their opening! Coffee and food was great but feel like they’re going to run into customer circulation and crowding issues. The way they’ve arranged the space has made the ordering and pickup section way too cramped with no obvious customer...

Should also be dinged for the exposed mechanical penthouse.

There is actually no heritage building/facade on this site. The podium is all new, which makes it even more impressive. Unless you meant it matched well with Bisha/Nobu’s podium.

Goodlife is already one of the cheapest gym chains! I'd be more concerned if it was a Sweat and Tonic, Altea, or Barrys.

Another brand new Toronto retail space with abysmal ceiling finishes… or lack there of. It looks like the set of a tv show.

Man they might as well not have bothered with the external lights, imo the biggest visual miss of this project

Somehow searching "Pret a Manger Adelaide" already shows its address

Well we definitely overlapped at some point!

Really nice to see different materials and textures being used as cladding in Toronto—even if the silver cladding is looking a bit Cybertryck, panel gaps and all.

1. Was hoping more glass block walls would be installed but it looks like they’ve paused that or these were just for initial testing 2. This courtyard is going to be an amazing space. The building isn’t tall but this space feels huge. 3. The initial facade retention structure has been...

Sidewalk is open, lane is open, and residential lobby is in the process of being completed.
