Vita on the Lake from behind Beyond the Sea (or Beyoncé, as my nieces call it.)

When I moved to Bloor West from The Annex in 2017, there was no Jane Street view terminus skyline. Soon after, there was Lago, then Eau du Soleil, and now this building joins them.

It will be exciting to see some of the 2150 Lake Shore towers start to rise into view over the next decade.

Here's a bonus shot, also taken today from the Willard Street Parkette:

The Lago tower looks a hell lot better than this junk.

Great photos, but I personally don't mind it. It gives a solid and filler addition to the Humber Bay Shores skylines, and it is fairly inoffensive. Sure, the spandrel is there, but the balcony guards masking what is behind it, the decent podium, and the overall simplistic design makes this a solid addition to the skyline.
 
Love the above photos, they really show the quite nice architecture of the various Humber Bay towers, I think the area turned out well in terms of the towers themselves, especially the Water Sun towers. But the street level is a different story I think that could have been handled better. :(
 
Vita, from several days ago. Mrs. 67 tells me that there was a couple on a balcony on the left enjoying the springtime sun, either starkers or very nearly so. When I raised my phone to frame the shot of Vita, they bounced inside quickly to avoid me. I was completely oblivious. I apologize for unknowingly becoming one of the Corps of UrbanToronto paparazzi and disturbing their siesta!
