Something like the facade of the Liverpool Insurgentes Department Store in Mexico City would be amazing.

Was is that park for awhile this evening. It's not that bad, street level is glass, the red detailing is neat. It's better than a lot of boring glass podiums and for a large retailer it's GREAT has anyone ever seen what box stores look like outside of downtown? HORRIBLE. So I'm ok with it. Could have been better but certainly not a blight.

From this morning - nothing you haven't seen before - but my main interest is in the street level, so here they are:

You'll never hear me complain about there being too many pics of the ground level of buildings / actual experience of the building as a pedestrian. Thanks for sharing!

You're welcome. Interesting to note that 1 Bloor E are using panes that are probably what, double the size for this project. That, and I think they might have installed the top left panel of the south facade upside down.

Thanks UrbanOptic, what's floor level u were at when u took those beautiful shots?

my guess 50!

Great shot! This is my favourite recent office tower in the city. It's simple but it's simple done right.

So we should be quite close to the top now. I counted somewhere around 27 or more floors, but I'm not sure if that's right.
