My eyes.


I'm not saying the before is much better, but holy cow, that last image screams "contemporary monochrone" like no tomorrow. We all know Toronto is a grey city, why celebrate it inside as well as out?

I'm glad I havent passed this renovation in a while. The podium here was never too great, but this cheaply done method of renewing exteriors looks awful.
 
When I first glanced I thought the older yellow hallway photo was the completed renovation, and I was like...hmmm... small improvement I suppose. ;)

The new cladding is lit.
 
I am sure JLL and Manulife are thinking about the rest of the building. Their rents are all-inclusive, and the tower is older and energy inefficient; most of my windows are originals and date back to 1974. Heating and cooling are done with PTAC units - I like them as you can switch from heating to air conditioning whenever you want (outside temps permitting), but the insulation around them isn't great.
