This is the kind of well written, positive and optimistic response that keeps me coming back to this forum. Thank you.

The area so badly needs this warm colour of red brick. This will be a great addition.

Beautiful glass on this one. Really makes the tower.

There is something very New York City about the massing of this tower - its sheer verticality as it rises from the street without a big podium. Very urban in a good way.

Skyline view from Fashion house pool - from instagram. Looks great. http://instagram.com/p/qko85tF07J/?modal=true

I disagree. These types of patios work very well on Ocean drive and Lincoln road in Miami, which both have far more pedestrian activity than I have ever seen on Yonge street.

I love it. I've seen these types of patios all over Europe, and even in Chicago, NYC, and Miami, where they look amazing and add incredible vibrancy. I always wondered why our liquor laws prevented this type of patio and am so happy to see that we're finally catching on.

Second row of windows up on stewart street. The staggered window pattern is really starting to look good.

There's no sunk costs in the subway at this point. No contracts have been tendered, environmental assessments haven't even begun. At this early stage it could be cancelled for zero dollars, and the city would save the full $1 billion that's about to be wasted on this.

People should be writing their city councillors, demanding that this grotesque waste of money be cancelled, and the previous LRT plan be reinstated.

+1. That's an amazing rooftop. And as Toronto condos go, Tridel is far from the unaffordable end of the scale.

The curtain wall glass being installed at the site of the construction elevator looks quite sleek. This gives me hope for the top of the tower, as I assume the glass there should be identical.
