This is unreal. A half decent design.

I would dispute that claim. Look at 2 queen West, a massive improvement. If they can do a reno like there this could be a upgrade 🙏

Does anyone have a map of where this future concourse will be located relative to the rest of the station?

McLennan park offers a pretty good view. If you also drive in from Guelph on highway 7 you can see the skyline as well.

So the project is back on? Is there any info on this?

To me it looks quite nice, as it really builds the skyline to have 1 or 2 brightly lit buildings on the skyline. I think hong kong is excessive, but this looks pretty good.

until (God forbid) the Dominion building redevelopment ruins the view. :(

Srm is a massive downside to kw buildings because they're local so they get hired to design alot. Almost all of their designs is mediocre at best and doesn't do much but add to kitcheners collection of boring buildings. Sucks that the TEK buildings are also by them. I hope more local...

I have to agree. Instead my preference would be to have a museum in the space, displaying the history of union station and maybe even of Toronto as a whole. it would probably work to attract more tourists to union boosting the station as a whole.

It would have made alot of sense and it is possible physically. Yet because we prefer too look 5 years into the future, city Hall decided to invest in repairing it, and has already awarded contracts. It is at a point where we can no longer do a u-turn and change course. This is something the...

The best option was to convince the provincial and federal levels to help invest in a underground option. Now that's not possible so let's integrate the Gardiner into the city, exactly as you mentioned. The Gardiner is ugly and an eyesore, but the reality is we need it. Let's integrate it into...

If approved I hope this adds the 1 meter this needs to count as a supertall. If not, it will join Toronto growing list of almost supertalls. :(

if anything it wows them, as it shows them one of the most unique features of North America, our superhighways. That is of course until they have to drive on it.

I think the project isn't to bad of a proposal, the only part i can't stand is how the towers don't compliment the rest of the building and look awkward. I hope there is more revision and a new design comes out. maybe it avoids towers all together and does a similar addition to what was done at...

The upper levels are a bmo office branch. I hope to see some entertainment in the mall as well, as the mall severely lacks this.

Interesting view. I see the equinox bridge just as destination as it has similar seating features. To me the equinox bridge will attract more destination visitors because of its striking design. My only concern is the lack of contribution to nature and plantlife, but that's easily added after...

So has it finally passed 2 Bloor east in height? Or is there still a meter or two

Same here, my favorite seems to be this one. The salmon run is also nice, i feel like it does the arch better, but the actual walkway design is better executed on the equinox bridge. It fits into the surroundings well and with some cool lighting, you could get a very photographed bridge, which...

Considering that the other towers don't even reach 150 meters, this will stick out insanely on the kitchener skyline

It wasn't sudden at all. They have been building new stairs and elevator here for years now. The fact that they have installed them means we probably are at a halfway point in their reconstruction here.
