I am glad this spot was finally filled with something. However i do agree with most of the comments that this is rather a dreary filler. Aside from the podium it has the look of community housing of say 1966.

I will agree that the tower could be better. But I think the podium is above average. The stone is really nice

HP have a solid overall portfolio, but this is such an unfortunate miss.

Glass reaching the top ... and there's a decent terrace halfway up

Fr0nt page update:

In Toronto's Bloor Yorkville neighbourhood, the next development to open will be a $130-million 26-storey tower with 11-storey podium designed by Hariri Pontarini Architects. The rental apartment development by KingSett Capital and Bentall Kennedy is set for completion this coming Winter, having topped off just months ago. The development is unique in its approach to its context, mixing the sensibility of rental properties with the luxurious context of Yorkville. Images by our forum contributors have revealed that the precast concrete and limestone cladding installation has caught up with the skeleton of the tower, and reached full height now, with only the very top levels awaiting window installation.

As if this project can't get worse, it blocks views of better buildings like One St. Thomas.

Today, the tower now seems fully enclosed.

This is really bad.

This is really bad.

I had such high hopes. So sad seeing Hariri Pontarini stumble like this.
