I'm a fan of this project however one thing irks me, and that is the cross bracing on the northside isn't as pleasing as it is on the Southside of this building. A stellar project however it has that flaw. It just looks sloppy from the north. My two ¢.
This project is especially interesting because I haven’t seen that type of panel used in other projects for the external finish. This may sound silly, but it reminds me of laminate flooring how each piece snaps together. I haven’t noticed that before in any other projects in Toronto. Maybe this...
Great photo! It reminds me of how much I miss the old Erin Mills town centre. Ah the big screen televisions, I remember those. I thought that was a really cool feature in Erin Mills Town Centre and too bad they got rid of it. People could watch the news or the game in between shopping. To me the...
This is great news! I'm old enough to remember the mini-golf course and the movie theatre. I felt like the centre court was rather bland after they removed the mini-golf course. As much as I am excited for the renovation, it will be some-what sad to see the clock tower go. IMO it was almost, if...

Can anyone tell me why the windows are grey as highlighted in the picture above? Excuse me if someone posted the explanation to this before, I haven't really been following Trump's construction.
I think someone commented on this before....but this building bears a strong resemblance to a knife sticking out of the ground. I find that kind of cool in my opinion.
I absolutely love this building. The impact it has on Toronto's skyline when driving into Toronto on the Gardiner is absolutely incredible. Dare I say that it is almost iconic.
