Build something better, charge more for it, people will pay. There are countless examples of people paying more for good design.
Where? The emerald park towers deals for almost 10% less than the hullmark centre that is across the street. You will argue that Hullmark is more stunning a design than Emerald Park?
Moreover, by these elevations, I can proclaim that these towers will not be masterpiece crown jewels for the city; however I will never say that they are of poor design. It is not like the developer is destroying this city by putting these two reasonable buildings on Yonge St. The fact that plain glass towers are not favored by everyone does not make glass towers destructive toward a community. I for one have despised Toyotas since the first time that I have had a chance to drive one, but that does not make Toyotas bad cars.
To me, if a building such as the X Condo gets approved, these twin glass towers should be smooth sailing for this city. But I will want to see the final render before I pronounce my opinionated judgment.
Once again, not everyone can be satisfied, but let's try to accept everyone's opinions. I'm happy for this city's development.
