I'm glad they preserve these buildings. But it would be nice to see them cleaned up a little better when the whole project is finished. Some of them still look quite dirty and don't blend in with the new part of the building.
 
I personally think Toronto has found a great balance that incorporates heritage into new buildings in interesting ways. Will you always get home runs? Nope. But that is also true of brand new buildings. I'm glad they do it.

"Build more buildings but also don't build any at all" seems to be the mantra of many.
