the 'heritage' looks like a model. GI Joe? maybe Puzz3D.

Quadruple the pretense, quadruple the charm? Might as well build a picket fence around the complex once the hoarding's down, and hire these girls as security guards:

True, both use pre-made parts that you fit together like a puzzle, but at least a Puzz 3D model can stand up on its own.

I think once the heritage facade gets weathered it'll look better (or at least I hope).

I wonder what Plan B is?

I think the problem is that it's too clean (thus new) - but even if it isn't, the "heritage facade" still looks like an afterthought from those angles - it looks better when aligned with the roofline of other structures along Bay though.

US: Tsk tsk!

BAC on cloudy day.

View from 22nd floor 1 queen east - today.

Sorry about the reflection from the lights...

 

[Hipster Duck]

Better now. You know, if you ignore the idiot facadism, it actually looks reasonably okay from far enough away and if you view it from a corner.

 

[dt_toronto_geek]

Is there rooftop lighting that anyone knows about? I'm seeing a long green reflection at the same roof height of BAC onto the east side of BMO/FCP. It looks like a line of green neon.

I am looking forward to the PATH connection to the new Bay-Adelaide Center.

I am looking forward to the PATH connection to the new Bay-Adelaide Center.

I've been watching it progress. The put rebar down in the bottom of the Adelaide Street trench over the past week (on top of what looked like rigid blue slabs of insulation) and it looks like they've just finished pouring the floor. When I investigated earlier this week the location of where it will enter the concourse in Scotia Plaza, I could feel a really cold draft coming from behind a cut-out in the drywall - it appeared that the concrete behind it had been cut and was letting in external air, but I couldn't get the cut-out piece (which had been roughly replaced) to budge too much in order to get a good look (I think it was being blocked in from the other side). I had my camera with me but decided to wait for a better opportunity to snap a pic of what's going on down below.

There fixed that up for ya.

There, fixed that up for ya, comma wise.
