Reminds me a Casa II.

Reminds me a Casa II.

...but with a twist!

Is there any pattern to the glass? It looks like plain white in those photos.

I'm gonna have to take another walk through Yorkville area soon to get a closer look at that glass. But I'm still seeking a balcony tower to clad in dinosaur fritted glass. Dinosoar Condos?

Owners in MuseumHouse next door must hate the condition they are now stuck in with Exhibit, kind of ridiculous the 2 are built that close to each other with living area windows really

Best part is, MuseumHouse still has units up for sale by the builder (good luck with that ):

^Yet there's $5 million dollar homes in Yorkville/Annex that are closer to their neighbours than here so what's the big deal? Welcome to urbanTO.

They do hate each other. They're in litigation

I'm not surprised, though that's not to say the litigation has grounds. You can expect this if you're going to live downtown; but at the same time--I can't say I'd be happy investing that kind of cheddar into a condo only to lose most natural light and watch Edgar and Mary in their new post-retirement digs across the alleyway.

Arvelo would say that they're not close enough, and should actually be built right up against each other.

I don’t think there should be gaps between buildings, though that should be matched by the provision of good windows at the front and back of each apartment.

Also, I love seeing a building / people living their lives out the window; I don’t see why that’s so terrible. I went to Museum Dental recently (within Museum House) and was able to see into Exhibit, and I loved it. I’m sure I’d still be bothered if my view was eclipsed by such a building, but I also love the presence of nearby urban life outside a window, and, anyway, it’s an inevitable part of living in a big city.

You probably can't see it here but the frit pattern is very thin horizontal white stripes

Maybe inspired by the stripes on the ROMbarn?
