Now for the gym space, which is facing south in the tower.

This picture is taken from the East side, looking West. The line of treadmills are facing the south windows.

This is the opposite......Taken from the West, looking East. You see the equipment lined up on the North wall. The entrance to the gym is in the middle of the space on the North wall.

Same as above looking East, but you now see the line up of treadmills facing the South windows.

Along those windows, you see the unfinished and unaccessible "Outdoor roof garden", with water features.

...1 or 3, beginning from the West side:

....2 of 2, the middle:

...3 of 3 on the east side of the roof garden:

"Experience Shower" Lulz.

Exactly my thought!!! Looks like an oversized shower stall! lol

"Experience Shower" Lulz.

When I used to stand naked showering in the communal shower at the Central Y with a bunch of other guys, I had no idea it was an Experience Shower. What's the experience? The risk of foot fungus?

Don't forget plantar warts.

"Water Feature" looks pretty dry to me.

It looks like water will be coming out of many different heads, thus creating the 'experience'. I mean it has to be set up to be more exciting than just going upstairs to one's apartment to shower, no?

From this morning. The laneway that connects St. Nicholas has been redone and looks good.

some douchebag already spray painted the brick.

I like this project for its intended impact on Yonge, but those wavy balconies don't do it for me. I wish it was much more geometric of much more curvy, and that the effect was the same (or inverted) on the east/west sides. To me it looks sloppy and saggy - like it needs spanx. lol.

I've been skeptical for a while, but I have to say it is coming along rather nicely.

I noticed this week that some of the broken glass has finally been replaced. There was one full panel that was replaced with plywood that was replaced. I'm sure the owner of that north facing suite is extremely happy now.
