The diamonds are not even visible where the lights are turned on.

Every diamond has installed exterior "framing" lighting.. maybe wait for the test, at night.

Any chance the non-diffused non-directed construction lights shines through the glass more than office lighting would?

There's a few things that are yet to happen here.
The office lights won't or shouldn't be as harsh as the construction lights - they will also probably be timed to go off once the offices empty.
The feature lighting to pick out the diamond fins will come into play
Even given that, the balance of the two can only really be tuned once they're all on. You never quite know in advance how it's going to look, but there will be scope to tweak.
Also - I kinda think it's fine that this building goes through moods. If the diamonds are less visible some times than others, that doesn't take anything away from the Instagrammable wow moments this still gives plenty of.

I don't think those diamond lights will be able to match the interior lights.

That 2nd last shot from just east is off the charts. Makes everything around it look like dog crap.

Because everything around it is dog crap and was from the get go. It's the problem with building quality. It highlights everything that isn't.

Aren’t a lot of prominent, architecturally-unique buildings in many NA cities’ downtowns actually office buildings?
Is Toronto a bit unusual in that a lot of what’s along the water is residential, and unless you’re catering to the wealthy...people aren’t gonna pay for architecture, just square footage?
EDIT: That’s not to say that we shouldn’t be disappointed with poor/pedestrian architecture (Daniels, the Waterfront ‘Innovation’ Centre) but...maybe that explains a little bit about why we see such a design gap. It’s more disappointing to me that even with pedestrian architecture we see a ton of crappy layouts and materials/fit and finish.

I think it' suffice to say, that this is the most distinguished bank building we've had since that red granite behemoth of the Scotia Plaza.

Are you working on building all of downtown Toronto if you dont mind my asking and what's the scale? 2:1 I presume?

I'm only building a couple sections of Toronto, as for scale I have no clue haha I just built it to what looked realistic to me.
