The silhouette of the two towers is giving CIBC Square in this shot w the 2 stepped roof

Visited from Windsor-Essex (I was born in Toronto and I am an architecture student) but everyone I was with is from county areas and not in architecture and they were taken a back by the density of this street haha. They didn’t like the “texture” (all the mullions) of the towers but overall...

It’s brutalist and I’m surprised to find I like it. Especially in that one view against the glass of the towers on Yonge. This building has a lot of interesting angles that look fairly sharp.

View from the 20th floor and Top of 160 Front

An LED Video wall behind them would be really cool. Lots of interesting ways to program it so ads interact with the doors.

Yeah if u look closely you can see them taking off the walls.

I believe they will be attached. You can see that in the renderings

Another off topic comment but I’d love to see a healthy budget disaster or action movie really go to town on downtown Toronto. We need more films that take place not just film here.

Lol I was three during the black out

I like the idea of a tall building on this site creating a view terminus up the street but what we got is almost not worth it. The only thing I’ll give this development is that there’s not crazy spandrel patterns. It’s fairly uniform, still bad but organized bad

Im pretty sure the golden design wasn’t ever something we were going to get for a few reasons.

Cant speak for the podium but the two towers are clean 👀

It’s cool how the model shows the spandrel placement.

That forest of rebar 👀

Benjamin Moore should have a colours of Canada collection and just have Toronto’s colour be GREY Then require that if u buy it u must use it on at least 50% of the walls in ur home. The remaining walls can only be painted sea foam green. : ) DYSTOPIA
