i dig that POV ^^^, despite Murano's falling glass, they'll still very nice looking buildings on the skyline. I personally think that the glass is nicer than Burano next door,

It's yet to be seen re: Burano's glass but I think your right steveve and I also agree that Murano looks great. It's too bad that Murano's art component doesn't work and the building fails at street level. Still, Murano & Lumiere are the best on Bay Street so far IMO.

True. :) I was thinking of "I survived Murano's falling glass" t-shirts. Burano has turned out to be rather monstrous from street level.

From Yonge St. after trying out "Yogurt Spoon".

Another terrific shot cruzin4me, er, cruzin4u. I like the t-shirt idea, hardcore UT'ers would snap those up. Perhaps you are onto something here :).

It really doesn't, but let's not rehash that one.

Same here. Both Lumiere and Murano are boring glass buildings...

Well, glass condos aren't for everyone but as far as glass design goes, it doesn't get much better than the two Murano towers for condos on Bay Street. Over at Lumiere it's all about the details, and a handsome building to boot.

Thing is I actually DO like glass buildings, just not these ones. Murano looks unfinished and cheapish to me (I hate the unfinished columns). Lumiere isn't bad, I just dislike that huge horizontal section that sits above the ground floor. I think it's made out of black aluminum? Looks cheap to me. Glass buildings I like are 55 stewart, X, Spire, etc. They all seem to have a much more luxurious look to me.
 
Sorry it's crooked, it took me about 35 shots to get one good one hanging over my balcony without the use of a tripod. Moon over Burano last night around 2am, it seemed more dramatic at the time than it appears.
