Thank goodness. Hopefully their monstrosity planned for Yonge St will get deep sixed as a result of all this.

I sure hope that a simple thing as faulty glass doesnt play a part of an approval of mega-developments in this city.

Is there anything more than a rumour about somebody talking to some guy at Lamb's office?

They also did 22 Wellesley E, all glass tower completed in late '07. No incidents there as far as I know. Let's hope that this is only specific to these two buildings. Though not all glass, their other most recent non-Murano/Burano projects (215, 219 Fort York, Toy Factor in Liberty Village) have also been okay.

i was thinking along the lines of projects completed in 2010/2011 as odds are if it's a materials thing, they may have used same suppliers; or if it's a workmanship issue, same trades might have been used.

Maple Leaf Square. All glass building, no incidents yet.

I walk by it everyday, and havent noticed any changes. The parking lot seems to still be in full operaton.

this building has a crazy small tower plate doesnt it. what is the dimensions?

 

[Marcanadian]

^^ For what it's worth, Google Earth says about 57x13.

 

[gristle]

To narrow that down, it's somewhere in the 5,000 to 7,000 square foot range for the floorplate.

Irrelevant but Lamb has expanded his developments to Ottawa and Calgary. Here's his latest project in Calgary. Looks sharp.

Irrelevant

Irrelevant and a let down as every time this thread pops back up to the top of the page I expect to see photos of hoarding going up.

I walked by this morning and noticed that the parking lot was closed off by cones and tape. As well last week they removed the billboard from a neighboring building.

Things seem to be slowly getting started here.
