Relief and reveal?
Olympic buildings will remain (heritage buildings) and will continue to be retail but will be brought right to the property line, the space where fire on the east side is will be torn down and it will be sort of a relief and reveal effect with a glass entrance set back from the two heritage properties. the tower is a fairly standard glass tower and steps back towards the top, architects are Pontarini and ERA
ToFan...I 'think' I know what you mean by 'Relief and Reveal', but prefer not to assume...can you elaborate (a pic would be nice too...
).
I walked by the Fire, Pizza and Fly last night and the patios were packed...I REALLY hope they contribute something to our street that adds value in terms of breathing life into it...it'd be great if we got even MORE life here...
...I'm hoping the building across the street could be developed...the one with the old Coffee Time...now a new Shawarma place (like all the new Shawarma places that have taken over this part of Yonge in the last couple years!).
If not developed, this strech is primed for a long inviting patio! Right up to Diners Corner.
"Relief is a method of decoration such as moulding, carving, stamping, etc., in which the produced design stands out from a flat surface so as to have a natural and solid appearance. Depending upon how much the design stands out from its background, the design may be said to be in low or high relief. In architecture, a surface which has been decorated with a low relief decoration is said to be abated".
"A reveal is the side of an opening for a window, doorway, or the like, between the door frame or window frame and the outer surface of the wall; or, where the opening is not filled with a door, etc."
