Turner Fleisher. C'mon Pinnacle, you're better than this...

The orange might well end up saving this design.

Cynical me thinks it'll probably be the first thing that gets axed.

The dataBase file has been established (and is linked right above, with one more perspective drawing), while our introductory story is now up on the front page.

At least Concert has made somewhat of an effort with the Kip district. I dont even know where to start with this proposal; the design of the podium will not work well at all for the retail that will face Dundas, the design of the tower itself is lacklustre and even if it was all glass with very little spandrel it still wouldnt look good, and the massing is just off.

One of the panels on the architectural plans shows that 31% of all surfaces on the west side of the building, for example, will be back-painted spandrel glass.

Updated renders from December. Note the flare on the north side:

Wow. The "Pinnacle" of what precisely? Tired and outdated, suburban, tower-on-podium planning? Embarrassing, third-rate 'architecture'? Buildings far too large and clumsy to promote the pedestrianism actually required to make this even semi-successful?

Looks like the project should be complete by 2021.

First building is called "Cypress at Pinnacle Etobicoke": http://www.pinnacleinternational.ca/communities/PinnacleEtobicoke

The sales centre on Dundas for Pinnacle Etobicoke is being readied for opening in one of the rebuilt buildings on this assembly.

at least they are being honest by showing the horrid amount of spandrel to come in the render.
