Is this actually the latest render and what we're getting? I knew the massing and that it was going to be a generic charcwhite, but this seems BUSY. Black brick, ligth grey brick, dark grey panels, some beige? some maroon or wood accents? Let's pray this one gets dumbed down.
This is by far the most advanced render we have seen, everything else out there has been basic sketchup massing without texture. I imagine this is very close to what we are getting. I found it on the Clobracon page for the project.

Progress today. First time post with photos here on SRC. I could never figure out photos on SSP so if this works I will be posting more here.
6 and 8 floors to go. This one is just massive at street level!

Despite the... most of it, I actually like the street level massing on this one. If only the street itself was conducive to being on the street level not in a car.

Too bad it’s just another charc white.

Slowly but surely, more of these projects along Carling will make the street more attractive to walk. Hoping to see a few retail units here at the bottom, more of these developments and hopefully some transit improvements on Carling. It has SO MUCH POTENTIAL.
A street tram and only one lane of traffic in each direction, and a revamped pedestrian realm, lots of ground level retail...it definitely has potential!

Eh, Carling will never be that unless the province forced it somehow. I do think there is a strong argument for a central street tram down Carling AND Glebe Avenue, bonus points if they connected Britannia Park and Patterson Creek.
Even in this scenario I don't see them making Carling a 2 lane road.
Earlier today. How long before they paint those red brick apartments behind charcoal and white?

The brick on the west side is not as nice as the frontage on Carling but overall it’s looking less ugly than their 2 pixel renders.

Yeah, wasn't even sure what design we were expecting now. I found this higher quality one online, wonder if this is it? Are we actually getting a bit of colour?

WHY do they need to change colours halfway up? What does it accomplish other than making it look tacky? Just take the dark brick all the way to the top.
Also, these look like chunky floor plates.
