4)It's got one of those lame ass mixed use podiums

5)It's way too tall--80 storeys of nimbyhell!

6)It's one of those g-d-mn balcony towers ... sigh. Therefore it's a 100%

This building should be used in the Ed Mirvish project in the entertainment district.
 
FOLKS, it's that time of year again.;) We could have been in for a very scary treat... On that note, NimbyTect presents The St Clair Disaster at St Clair Avenue West and Ford Street:

The most desirable address in the nation?

Folks, 4 Ford Nation Street features the best street-level design and amenities in Toronto condominium history!

Folks, it's a ****ing

And it's only forty storeys of grey spandrel, precast and glass!

Hey NimbyTect fans and foes: Recall King and Brant? aka the old Grand & Toy/Pizza Pizza/Jacobs site on King West? Ok let's give it some nimby-approved red brick and stone cladding:

Then let's plonk it down into Google Earth and see how it shades the 'hood

Does it make the grade?

Redesign it is.
 
The heat is on me for my Ivory on Adelaide commentary. Well what would the NimbyTect do? Maybe something like

red brick, copper trim on the podium; white precast panels & glazing on the tower with red brick balconies.

Today I felt like designing it for this barren site at Jarvis and Queen:

More later if they'll let me escape the prison I'm holed up in.
 
Gonna redesign New Street Jail to be more 1970s style (which is the retro future coming next decade!) like

And less like this bore

My gosh how can you real architects stand playing with your designs for 4-8 years from concept to reality? I would be so bored...:p

This nimby

especially if they're beside BuzzBuzzHome hQ, within shouting distance of some real aAwesome architects, and close to some greaAt buildings like Peter Street Condos and King Charlotte.

Dr Streetwall likes curves ... as long as they're minimal, black and oh so sophisticated

The only question that remains: how tall is the NimbyTect?

(That is a Dr Streetwall state secret.)
 
CD Concept, I thought you might enjoy the 800 Bay Street proposal clad in red brick:

And as promised earlier this year, I'm starting to develop an interest in interior design & furnishings. Condo floor plan experts, how could I improve this 540 square foot one bedroom plus den unit in the Bay Street Bore?
