I keep on imagining an Apple store in the middle of that little plaza similar to the Fifth Ave. location! I'll keep dreaming.

It definitely would be a cool spot for one from a design perspective ^. From a retail perspective, not so much though.

Taken today:

*Crystal-form buildings such as EY in general look pretty good in white/lighter coloured cladding like with One Bryant Park or even the ROM crystal, as the renders depicted.
The colour we're getting here at least is one not yet seen in the CBD. It's very Aura-esque (the curved portion), and thankfully not green or sky-blue like the Bay Adelaide Twins and Shangri-la.

Those mullions/fins look really great. As seen in the renders fronting NPS, they should highlight the sharp angles nicely and play off the sunlight.

Looking good so far.

Cladding and fins now visible on the webcam (which should really be adjusted ASAP)

You can see it from Nathan Phillips Square now.

They've started putting up the heritage pre-cast on the ground floor.

That would be on the right side of this image:

Hmm, hard to be sure but it does look like real granite.

It's too grey.

Just kidding.

 

[stjames2queenwest]

Something's look good grey, like stone, not so much glass/spandrel.

It looked like the precast they took off when I walked by on the weekend. I'd rather granite, but that wouldn't be authentic, for whatever that's worth.
