Given that "green" = frogs, I'd wonder if there'd be some kind of "Freedom Fries"-type anti-French bigotry here...

I know that term. It was probably that term in my subconscious mind that triggered the reaction; the whole somethingback terminology.

Hulk is a "greenback". Hulk get angry when called greenback.

^Nice shot. Trump is rising above his neighbours. Trump excited. Soon neighbours will have Trump-envy.

It's amazing to me that something so imposing at ground level can look so slim from above.

grey, nice pic, nice view. I first seen it on skyscraper.com tracked you down to this site. Are you photographing from BMO or TD Centre? Also from what height? You look to be up around the 30-40th flr?

From BMO at about 30 stories.

I'll be sure to give you a wave as I go by your office...from the outside.
You're working on the FCP re-cladding?

Everyone seems to be coining their own name for the colour, shade, tint, or hue of the new spandrel portion of Trump's glass.
From the first moment I saw it, I was reminded of one thing... MONEY. U.S money to be exact. I know the shade isn't the same but the overall feel, to me is the green of the "Greenbacks". Since this is The Donald's project, I think he approved the glass for that very reason.
Therefore, I suggest we refer to this colour as "Greenback" from now on.
