What?? Are there lights?I wonder when they're going to start testing the 'maple leaf' light feature
Look at the renderingsWhat?? Are there lights?
Yea, I actually think this building is fairly well executed by Toronto standards, if a little bland. It looks like it would be a decent condo complex to live in.For all the shit this thing takes, it's easily got one of the best, if not the best MPH sections of anything in this dumb City. Will be very cool to see it used by residents from afar.
Quality-wise probably the best in CityPlace (one hopes anyway, given the hype in their marketing). Architecturally, debatable if it's CityPlace's finest. In any case, both are not saying much.Yea, I actually think this building is fairly well executed by Toronto standards, if a little bland. It looks like it would be a decent condo complex to live in.

Its Concord, classic messI see very little redeeming qualities. I find it way too bulky at street level and the Maple Leaf motif very tacky.
It's bland, but has excellent amenity space, decent sized, functional floorplans, a very large number of units to spread maintenance costs between, large balconies (with heaters!), a decent amount of parking with highway access, etc.I see very little redeeming qualities.

Classic chicken-and-egg problem: while I’m tempted to say we should make developers be accountable for their design by refusing to live in an ‘ugly’/bland building, if we do that, there’ll be a LOT more homeless people in our city.It's bland, but has excellent amenity space, decent sized, functional floorplans, a very large number of units to spread maintenance costs between, large balconies (with heaters!), a decent amount of parking with highway access, etc.
As I said, architecturally the buildings are bland. Not lookers at all, but also not ugly per se. Material selections are decent, just implemented in the most inoffensive manner possible. Pure function, but I do think the building appears to be fairly functional. Which honestly is a lot more than what many condo buildings can claim these days.
I'd live here if it wasn't for the location right next to the Skydome. A bit too busy for my tastes.
