I always thought the height restriction for that site was a bit ridiculous. It will cast a line of shadow on NPS for a couple of hours a day but so what..?
With everything going on, i guess we are spoiled ..most North American cities would drool over a proposal like this, but here in Toronto its too "short and ugly" Yeah i dont get it. we here in Toronto are so lucky to still be enjoying a construction boom..
^Not counting spelling and grammar errors, there are at least 3 factual errors with that post.
Anywho...
This building isn't exciting, but then again, this site is cursed and it really is a non-address in the ass end of the financial district. Temperance and Sheppard? You can't expect that a developer will hire Norman Foster to design the next supertall here.
^Hey, buddy, if you're going to write an angry post about this city's architecture and put yourself in a position of authority, you might at least want to check your facts: the TD centre (at least the main buidlings) was built in 1967, not in the late 1980s. This is actually pretty common knowledge among the people who post on this forum. Not to be a dick, or anything, but telling the city what kind of buildings they should build and not knowing when the TD centre was built is kind of like trying to be a critic of rock music and not knowing who the Beatles are.

I'm not 15 far from it, but an honest mistake it wasSome of the younger folks on this site might be thinking BCE1, which now has a TD sign on it's spire, when refering to the TD building. Honest mistake for someone under the age of 15.
How many 75 storey buildings does Tokyo have? London? Buenos Aires? Moscow?If Toronto wants to be a world class city it needs a few more 75+ story building imho...
If it wants to hang with the big boyz it should start building like them.
What do wild pigs have to do with this?Its simply boaring
