Interesting you see it that way, as I personally really like the profile from up north on University.

Yes I guess they added those vertical beams which accentuate the height of the building as an (grimace) afterthought
I guess once again we disagree condovo....

I was about to reply then noticed the sarcasm right before I hit "post". I agree I like that the interesting sides of the building face University Ave/CBD and the West.

The profile is impressive in its bold and rigid appearance, but it's not very interesting in terms of design.

Those fins around the mechanicals look so flimsy! Once they're clad it seems like they could just snap off in a strong wind... hope they're well secured.

Photos of Toronto's skyline always impress, but these perspectives seem particularly unique and spectacular. The skyline appears so wide and varied, and the substantial natural areas in the foreground add more interest to the scenes. Yet currently, it's a perspective that I don't think many people see because of the restrictions on access to Tommy Thompson Park.

Fin-tastic! (Sorry, I couldn't resist).
This may be slightly off topic, but when the streets are repaired or replaced around new construction, the concrete is a much lighter shade of colour. Is this normal? Does it fade darker when it cures? I'm no expert on concrete chemistry, but some patches still look light after several months.

^^^I believe it is over the covered entrance from Adelaide which will allow drop off's to the condominium residences.
I was down today and looking at the appearance from Adelaide. Sorry, no camera with me. It is improving and looking less "jumbled" as more material finishes get placed. It looks much better than a month ago. I would wait to see the final product but I am hopeful it will all work,even though I could count at least 2 different colours of marble; what appears as black granite, and window as well as the brick from Bishop's Block all along the 1 block from University to Simcoe.
