I have amended the thread title accordingly.

TY.

Just for @Paclo to follow along...... I said Newpoint originally in the title field as that was the name offered in the Planning Report.
 
aA have certainly played a part in the overall blandness of condominium design in this city. To their credit, the use of curtain wall is a good part of many of their designs and developers have embraced that. They have done great work at times. But a newer building like 8 Cumberland is, in my opinion, an incredibly lazy design, especially for its location. It could have been built in 2005. This design on Queen is a welcome break from their general austerity, with its apparent colour scheme and stacked heights. They are clearly capable of breaking out of their mold, as the Teahouse North tower at 501 Yonge proved. I just wish it had been the taller of the two as I find it much more interesting than the south tower. Anyway, let’s hope this turns out really well.

Thread title says 50 floors, Northern Light says it's 48 and the stats table says 49! Would the real number of floors please stand up! Calling @Paclo to look into this.

There is interior amenity space in the mechanical floor above the 49th, making it 50 by UT standards
 
Love the design, hate to see that Buvette Pacey's space is included in the parcel.... it's one of the few cute and cool spots in this neighbourhood.
