Fully agreed. This is one of the nicest buildings to walk along this stretch of Yonge Street. The mid-rise built-form, ornamental buildings, and restaurant patios provide one of the most "European" street aesthetics in the city. I don't care if it is inauthentic PoMo or not, it achieves the desired effect of making me feel proud of walking through this city.I much prefer what’s there now. It’s nice to have some texture and playfulness, unlike the monolithic proposal.
To replace that with this architectural dreck is unfortunate.
