Something tells me it will look even taller than that though.

Is it true the Stollery's plot on the SW corner has been sold? I recall hearing some rumours a couple of months ago about this. However, Stollery's just renovated which they wouldn't have done if they're about to pack up and move out.

Who would buy it? Oh right, Bazis....
It makes sense to renovate and get maximum dollar. Just like harry rosen on bloor west--that store will be flattened for a highrise within a decade I bet!

Anyone else suspect those fins at the top will fall victim to The Cheapening?
I'm hopeful that will happen: the fins look pretty artless to me. The top needs a re-think.

Ditto. The building looks like a giant version of the clippers that Barbers use.

I agree: fins can go. That's a tall'un though.
Perhaps if the fins don't go they could be replaced with higher, more elaborate, coloured fins. My mom always said, if you're going to fin, go big, son, go big.

'Zactly. If it goes up as is, we name it 'The Clippers'.

The fins look like something Roy Varacalli would wear in his hair

I like the fins - they're pretty much the only distinguishable feature this building has, other than its height.
