I think what I am most impressed with is the fill in of the air conditioner holes in the south tower.

I wish the small glass addition on the west side was set back further from the street. It's a trivial structure of little architectural merit. Yet it competes with the heritage facade for attention at street level because it lines up with the facade. In short, it's a distraction.

Need to see it to lease it ...

Yeah that does look weird, mostly because the neighbouring building is set back. The architects treated both interface corners (along Bloor and along Avenue) the same, when they should have been tailored to the specific sites.
Maybe more of the neighbouring building will be built out to the sidewalk?

Maybe if it were a couple of storeys taller, it would look more like an interesting building in its own right instead of a strange stub.

Yeah - you are right- but it's just a entrance to the retail so 5 storeys would be crazy.

Nope. You can keep going if you have an above grade structural permit for residential projects. Hotel may be stopped.

Different angle of the glass box. You can see here it is actually quite separated from the heritage structure.
