the best thing about it is the rooftop garden. Other than that, the sterile glass ghetto continues to grow...

I don't mind the Cityplace towers at all.. I just wish they were scattered around town instead of in one big cluster. Not to mention, it looks like the anti-retail dead zone won't be helped with this development.

The dead street level throughout this place renders it as nothing more than a vertical suburb.
The big effort appears to be the addition of some colour to the cladding. This should help break up the otherwise repetitive gray exteriors that are so typical of the buildings on the west side of Spadina.

There will be retail at ground level here.

I would like to see a full rendering of both Quartz and Spectra. Ed, I42, you guys have any of those?

Oh, really? I guess I shouldn't have assumed but it just really looked like there isn't in that render.

Quarts and Spectre. Will they ever run out of clever names for these buildings?

The spectra has a sister of the same name in Vancouver I beleive, similar little colour accents on both as well.

That's exactly what it is. On their own many cityplace buildings would be quite impressive. Bunch them all together and even I'll admit they become a bit monotonous...
