Is there a Chrome Extension that can filter out hyperbole? If not, someone should make one for this forum. I'd submit "monstrous", "carbuncle" and "pile" as the first words.

You do know the term 'monstrous carbuncle' has a somewhat regal history in architectural circles, no?

If this is a "monstrous carbuncle" does that make the rest of the building a "much loved and elegant friend"? Because you can't have one without the other in the history of amateur architectural criticism.

^^ Awsomeness. we just hit the 25 story mark. that's out of 58 according to ssp. Almost half way! I love this building because it reminds me of One King West with a somewhat similar design and with an added 30 meters of height!
like One King West I like the way the architecture is and how it slowely changes into glass as it reaches the top

Also be sure to check out the plugin which replaces all "Trumps" with "Drumpf". Let's make Donald Drumpf again.

What does that have to do with 88 Scott? It's annoying to see political message plastered in places where it doesn't belong. It's like graffiti tagging. I come here to read and talk about construction in the Toronto area not that garbage.

I was going to say the same. Don't bring that crap here, thanks.

I don't see One King. Maybe if you said Drumpf Toronto.

the resemblance to 1 King W is slight... only that the top will be predominantly glass emerging from a lower section of mixed materials. other than that, the shapes of the buildings are completely different plus this one has those extruded terrace sections at intervals along the height. 88 Scott is really going to widen out the core skyline a fair bit which is good, but unfortunately from many formerly photogenic angles, it's going to end up blocking out 1 King W.
