I don't know about drama, but these finale towers are a fitting end to a mediocre project.

They really should stop the Canada branding given how mediocre it is, not to mention the question - just what's so (uniquely) Canadian about the project? Nothing - it's like ripping off a very tangible and meaningful name and slapping it on cheap condos.

Indeed. It's a pathetic gesture and it just looks ridiculous.

It's tacky and looks like something that belongs on the Niagara Falls hotel strip.

standard Concord Adex formula:
Token or gimmicky flourishes on an otherwise boring sterile glass and spandrel tower.

It will be funny to see a poutine restaurant or maple syrup shop in their renderings to play up the Canadian stereotype.
Though Americans are very patriotic, you don't see buildings there with stars and stripes on it. That's too pompous.

There is some equipment on site today, test bores?

They're not plastering these towers in maple leafs, either. I find the name to be pretentious and the architecture to be subpar, but the towers have an exuberant design with the colourful flourishes. The big balconies also look like a desirable feature.

You can slap a maple leaf on just about anything & pass it off as Canadian.

Thank God they're gone after this mess is built. I do like the balconies, though.

Spotted some high-quality renderings on BBH that aren't in the DB.

That penthouse space is going to spectacular to be in, IMO.

That being said, I do hope they manage to not make the window fenestration as light as possible.

Gee you've never seen yellow maple leafs. .. today's lighting can be programmed to any colour you like.

It's not a penthouse. It's the amenity space. A gym in one tower, and party room/lounge in the other.

...both of which you can see in the images a few posts above.

I was referring to those spaces as penthouses from their position at the top of the building, not their use. I guess a better term would have been top floor amenity?
