The building is lined with metal strips to show the pattern. But the CIBC building relies on a three-dimensional glass surface to create a diamond pattern, and the metal strip is just an embellishment rather than an important part. These are two completely different ways.

Not just that, but the CIBC Square doesn't have a statuette of any historical personalities, unlike on the Comcast (William Penn).

Speaking of statuettes, it would be interesting to place a statuette of Sir John Graves Simcoe on it (though it would be better placed atop the CN Tower).

Wow they are making quick work of this. I hope something’s said about the pace these guys are making of this project. It’s really come along way in a short time it seems. Looking fantastic. Thanks for all the photos everyone!!?

I had friends visiting from Sacramento California last week. I took them along the Gardiner eastbound from the west end. When we rounded the curve just past the Spadina exit, I heard an "Oh My God" come out of their mouths. I have to say, it is an impressive view!

I guess this overpass park will be very narrow
What's the point?

It isn’t very narrow it will be just like depicted in the renderings

It's an acre in size

The point is to make one development out of two towers separated by a wide rail corridor. This is a pretty good way to do it!

RAP's parade hangover update...

Oodles of work, top to bottom, and glazing on ALL sides.

Glazing spreading around NE corner. And a very large slice of steel rising.

A growing maze of scaffolding inside...

Random 'We The North' photo...

Was at Bay and Front earlier today and I have to say it's beginning to look really, really good.

Wow' that glass

yeah you're right thank you Lord ! I thought the glass was going to be plain & clear. But instead it's a dark blue mirrored look. And we got two of these buildings that have to go up !

That's such a nice shot! Could we get a full-size one for wallpaper? Thanks

Unlike some this project looked good the day they first showed up on site.
