while this project is beautiful, i'm a bit worried about what it'll do to the streetscape. there doesn't seem to be any space for restaurants or retail, and as stated above, only one of the four buildings will actually extend to meet the street. this has the potential to create a very dead neighbourhood. it could end up feeling like 1960s tower-in-the park design.
The next phases,
are the ones which will reach all the way to Queens Quay, and which will provide some ground retail and the connection to the city and street life.

i agree.... but .. i also hate the location with a passion. why are we building a condo at the foot of the most important street in Toronto, longest street in the world and on the shore of lake Ontario??? this is just stupid. This could have been something other than another condo... like maybe a museum, theatre, park, olympic cauldron location for possible olympic games in near future? anything but this.... ruining the location that will connect the Don area and financial district. ugh!

Forget the airport Tony. The constant smell of molasses would drive be crazy.
