I wish they carried the bronze treatment of the podium all the way up the tower. I find it the most interesting part of the design.

I do like the bold framing on the podium section... along with the archway. I see it as a modern reply to the existing row of buildings on the south side of Colborne, so in a way contextual. The tower though boxy is different enough to get a pass. Good to see one of the most over priced parking lots in downtown say goodbye.
So is the archway entrance on Church Street? if that's right, what do you suppose fills the empty space to the east of the Tom Jones restaurant?
That parking lot is not part of the Freed property.
thanks for that. So if the tower is on the south east side of church and colburne, won't this cast a shadow on the church? I forsee a community uprising over this.

I think it looks great. It fits in nicely to what is already a cozy neighborhood, but still says something with a bit of height. Podium is beautiful.
