    Dubai: An Architectural Masterpiece layered on a Third World Country?

    Cultural isolation is not promoted by any level of government. It is a choice some people make usually because of religious or racial reasons. Jenny not only is your relative an idiot (business wise) for limiting his customer base but by being uncomfortable by the presence of a non-Chinese...

    Dubai: An Architectural Masterpiece layered on a Third World Country?

    Meh still BS. I think you are a little too sensitive. You know people do look at other people.

    Dubai: An Architectural Masterpiece layered on a Third World Country?

    What a load of BS. The only time you’ll get a second glance anywhere in Ontario is if you walk in nude. My wife attended a medical conference in Dubai last fall. She described the city as chaotic, racist and destined to fail due to its poor planning. As a woman she was verbally and...

    Toronto Residences at the RCMI Condos | 134.72m | 42s | Tribute | Zeidler

    The renovation and stucco treatment really destroyed this building and in my opinion nothing of architectural merit remains.

    Toronto L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    Even with its foot cut off the tower looks decent. The problem is securing financing and in this economic climate that is virtually impossible.

    Sleazy service award

    Dealing with crooked contractors and service people is one of the many joys of being a homeowner. Although I’m a research scientist with very little background in repair work I am actually surprised how easy it is to fix many of these appliances. In the past two years I fixed my dishwasher...

    Toronto Minto Midtown | 160.01m | 52s | Minto Group | Zeidler

    Good looking towers. Thanks for the pics. I’ve heard that the north tower is practically empty because most of the units are held by investors who are having difficulty selling them in the current market.
