The Intercontinental didn't really bother me until you mentioned it just now. Now it just looks like it's in the way.

Naw - it's of a time and place too! If all the towers were all glass, you'd be bored!

I agree completely. RBC and its glass neighbours actually play nicely off of the Intercontinental, and vice versa.

I stumbled across this render of RBC Dexia and the Ritz... not new, but I don't think we've seen this resolution before.
I'm looking forward to seeing how they execute the lantern/pyramid on the building since it is close at hand.

RBC Dexia is a financial joint venture between RBC and Dexia of Belgium. It's headquartered in London.

Didn't know Dexia would be getting their name on this project. That's cool though. I like the big RBC logo on the east side at the top.
Also it's interesting how both logos of RC and RBC have lions.
We should name these towers the Lion Towers. Or maybe just I will... lol.
In that rendering they've left the stone wall blank in the middle of the podium.

Someone should get a shot of the tower from Queen and University. It's quite prominent from there.

We've known about Dexia since page 1 of this thread.

You're right. And now that I think about it, it does sound familiar, it's just been so long since the announcement.

Intercontinental looks so much better with rbc in the picture. It doesn't dominate the area as much and the different materials contrast nicely.
There's also a nice pyramid effect with the building heights going there now.
wyliepoon's photos from Bathurst were taken sometime between 4:50pm & 5:10pm

That is one sweet photo! And a different view than we usually see.
