Our Top Ten Forum Threads 

1. EY Tower

The most popular Forum thread during March was that of the EY Tower, now nearing its final height in the Financial District. The 40-storey office tower's striking angular form and reconstructed Art-Deco facades have been very well received, drawing in plenty of Forum traffic. In second place, the Massey Tower is now in the process of reaching grade, which is generating excitement for the slender 60-storey tower on Yonge Street.
