How odd that this Real Estate Agent would write this under his description of Conservatory Condos on Bay Street - "The Conservatory Tower is an example of what ails our fair city’s skyline. No one should have allowed it to be built as it was instantly dated and is awful to look at."
 
Lol! And about Horizon on Bay: "This is another Bay Street building that is unlikely to set hearts a flutter."
 
Where is this building going? I know at Bay and College, but I'm trying hard to picture which site...
 
It's on the West side of Bay street, immediately across the street from RoCP1.
 
Incoming!! Fresh and hot new pics of the Lumiere sales centre and model/rendering!!

Here's the pics I took today outside the sales centre. I think it just opened up today and the sales centre seems to be pretty busy when I was there, looks like the marketing campaign about floating yuppies seemed to have worked. lol

Looks like a nice tower, a more evolved version of the repetitive "Toronto style" condo tower

Stay tuned for updates on MInto Midtown, BA Centre, SPIRE, One City Hall, RoCP, Metropolis and more!! I'll post'em when I upload them later on.
 
fuzzy,thank you and thank your camera,always enjoy the updates!
 
Odd they haven't released the rendering on their website.
 
I walked by at about 2 pm on wednesday and the sales office was packed.
 
I wonder what architectural historians will have to say in the future about this wave of "Toronto-Styled" condo developments.

A "Toronto-Style" condo?"

Nope. All are in Chicago. I think the 'Toronto-Style" is a myth.


And by the way, if you wanted to do an "Uptown", this is probably the way you should do it (the base is kind of busy though):

^ A good point, thanks for the pictorial.

I'm not shedding any tears that we're not getting that first one (Museum Pork Place?). But the tall Radio City-lookin' one has something nice going for it.
