Thank you Gei & Tewder for your kind words, as the welcome I have had here has been overwhelming.
I joined this place as it is a public forum on the city I live in to discuss things that affect my surroundings as it appears to be one of the better ones when it comes to these issues. And...

Oh Goody.
Another tall oversized building made of glass in the City of Toronto.
How original of them.
Honestly, where is the good architecture these days? Are there any other materials they can use other than glass? I can't tell one new condo from another.

Thanks for your honest responses.
