Sugar Wharf buildings would've looked phenomenal in red (where the black is), and I mean red red

The Sugar Wharf towers are certainly a step above the trashy spandrel cheapness of Daniels Waterfront but that "crystalline" balcony pattern is quite tacky in its own right.

Taken 24 January. Can’t wait for the dockside promenade and its four rows of trees to get going on the east side!

Toronto, the city where you have to hire an international starchitect to get anything but grey, black or white cladding on your building, because apparently all of the local architects are color blind (outside of the occasional splash of color on our precast brick)

the real issue (if there is one) with this building is that the really good units with the curved bay windows and open terraces, that whole danish living on a built mountain thing, are incredibly expensive. but i guess you cant make a building like this without expensive list prices to cover what Tridel is trying to do.
kind of a shame that the future affordable rental will visually obscure this building from queens quay

I see that this thread is now "skyrisecities", no more "Urban Toronto" ?

I'm with you on the need for more colour, but this isn't fair to local architects. Just off the top of my head, local architects have given us Limberlost Place with plenty of vibrant orange, Portland Commons' lovely orange fins, 30 Colborne, also rocking the orange fins, Cielo, going up now and which should have some nice gold or copper cladding, and a bunch more in the pipeline. The problem is with risk-averse developers, not their architects.

Great moody picture capturing one of the greyest winters we've ever had (so far). Enough of this for me, though, I'm off to sunnier climes for the rest of the season!
No, it's still UrbanToronto, but you can access it (and any other UrbanToronto thread) if you enter via SkyriseCities.

Recent site visit from a sunny Monday. The feeling of being in that amenity courtyard looking up is otherworldly.

Wow, those spaces are cool! I gotta call up my realtor to book a viewing of available units in this building when it's completed just to check out these views.
