It looks awful....exposed like that. Ruins the look of the building.
How can you possibly be speculating so negatively about something which has yet to be constructed and which few of us know might look like? This is ridiculous. And where's the crane for 1Bloor?
Exactly. What people fail to consider is that if the fins did go all the way around, they wouldn't look like fins anymore.... it would just look like the building is that much taller.I actually like the mechanical box + roof treatment in general. I like how the east/west elevations are open because of the way it allows a view of the structural steel holding up the fins, but if the mechanical box had been hidden or incorporated below then it would look funny having that vast open space between the two fins.
I barely even notice that mechanical box. I doubt most people will. Still a nice building.
Agreed. we should have a U T meetup on top of telus and we'll spray paint the mechanical box black. At least we will get it right.I think some cool graffiti might enliven that mechanical box.
