There was a late 19th Century writer named Guy de Maupassant. He supposedly ate lunch in the Eiffel Tower's restaurant every day because it was the one place in Paris where the tower was not visible.

Not surprised. Eiffel Tower was considered a monstrosity when it was built for the 1889 Expo. With more skyscrapers appearing in the 20th century (such as the Tour Montparnasse), it became a landmark and icon. Perhaps Canada House can draw comfort from this?

This does look bad from renderings or at least boring but if they actually put effort on the exterior materials and details, it might turn out okay. Not putting money on it though.

I will say that near rooftop indoor pool does look nice for residents.

I very much disagree with the idea that the CN Tower would have a better view.

It follows logically that the better view is the one in which you will NOT see Concord Canada House!

So CCH does indeed have the better view!

Best view is definitely from Daniels Waterfront.

Starting work as a traffic signaler at this place tomorrow morning, wish me luck!

Did my first day - I see why this is going up so slowly. No more than maybe 25 guys on site and nobody really in a hurry, it's a really chill job.

I'll try to shmooze my boss into telling me when cladding is coming...

Can you also somehow shmooze him into somehow getting the delivery drivers to redirect the cladding into the landfill where it belongs.

Keep working that magic, my dude.

Looking at these recent photos gives me a sense of foreboding, and impending doom (cladding).

 

[yin_yang]

Excited for the cladding to come! I guess my perspective is different since I'm actually helping build this thing and you are all just passive whiners.

minus all the other crap in this thread, this is the best laugh I've had in a while on this forum.
