I like it. I wonder if the slats are wood or metal - either way, they make a way more interesting façade than a wall of glass. Also, the preservation of York Sq. makes the ground plane way better than if this landed on a traditional "podium"... This kind of open "village" base could become a new typology for towers in toronto
 
Finally something that is unique and interesting. I can't recall any cases of this type of "slatty" facade anywhere in the city. Is anyone familiar with a previous use of this design? I'm curious if there are any examples in real life and how they turned out.
 
Love it. I live down the street, and have been extremely heartened by the evolution of the design. From where did you get these latest renders, if you don't mind me asking? Have these latest designs been presented to the DRP (or any other body)?
