That's not what he said. He wished the panes of glass were larger (as depicted in the rendering; i.e. no mullions).

Good point. I can agree on that although larger panes can be problematic, mostly in terms of cost. I do prefer how the windows on 60 Richmond appear punched-out as opposed to the ones at Picasso, but I think Picasso looks great nonetheless.

I like Picasso as it has character but especially because it has colour. This is what makes it stand out.

It is a refreshing break from the blue glass monotony south of Queen. You look at nearly every single tower put up in Toronto south of Queen in the last 20 years and they are almost all blue glass. It has become Toronto's assumed tower composition. The designs might be different but the look is all the same.
