That's a lot of slabs!

From a couple hours ago, there's an open house going on either already, or this weekend, so they're definitely getting closer to occupancy.

Taken while waiting for the light. I haven't seen this project from Soudan in a long time...and don't plan on visiting that intersection anytime soon - this is one ugly project

This will be the great Rexall of them all!

It looks like a modernist concrete tower facadomized into the grey spandrel blob that is the true towers form. Very Toronto. Very demure.

Today. I captured some detail shots of the brick, which is looking quite good.

Taken a few hours ago,

I'm frankly surprised she's still with us. I appreciated her work in the biology/anthropology field many years ago, still do. Anyways, it looks like we'll see a few cranes coming down here by ~October (maybe sooner*)

Good thing we're not Houston, this podium would be chunky, with atleast 8 more levels of parking.

A rave before it turns into a grave... (until it's developed into whatever forgettable tower is built over it)

Pape and Sammon, yesterday

Hey, we're people too you know!

Looks like something out of Oakville...very bleak.

Ugh. I've been avoiding this site since last year, to not remind myself of this hot garbage renovation. It looks like a Riocan special a la Yonge and Eglinton Centre. Making a tired, but respectable mixed use complex a franken-architecture nightmare. The gold trim windows feel like kitschy -...

Oh, I didn't realize. Above the retained facade?

I find them both very disappointing for the siting, being in the heart of Leaside.

Yes, it's window wall. It's looking quite bleak.
