Damn, that person has such an amazing view!

The channel only has 52 subscribers and I randomly stumbled upon it, they are planning something interesting

Synekism Inspire is a set of timelapse projects, the main one being a multi-year 1-picture-per-minute timelapse of downtown Toronto.

I really hate it.

Can't say the same. It's fine.

It's boring but functional.

I really hate it.

Hate is a strong word.

Can't say the same. It's fine.

Fine is also a strong word, LOL

It's not particularly attractive, though far from the least appealing towers we've seen built in this City.

Its main sin is the oversized and bulky podium. The towers are more just 'meh'. But for what was supposed to be the signature, the crown jewel of City Place as it were.........well........ it under achieves, by a fair margin.

I posted about this several pages back. Where's the evidence that this was supposed to be that? It's the last phase. That's it.

Here's @interchange42 addressing that 12 years ago:

The point is though that the competition did not determine a winning design - just a designer, so the final design will be subject to limitations on cost, unlike during the competition. Don't expect a building that can't be paid for.

There was a design competition as I recall...........

You got me looking waaaaaaaayyyy back in the thread to when this was first announced.......... you think comments of the near finished product are harsh, you should refresh yourself on UT's instant reaction to the first renders.....

But I digress:

I should add, PE, your thoughts weren't particularly kind either:

Well informed posters noted that Concord was thinking of this as 'the landmark' of CityPlace:

A further reference to how this tower was being discussed:

Here' PE you seem to accept the reference to 'signature tower' without issue:
