I quite miss that old Italian marble facade of FCP, the building has really lost some appeal for me without it.

I've got a chunk of it sitting in my living room.

The exterior marble has looked like crap most of my adult life. I can't say I miss it. I like the dark accents in the corners as well.

I preferred the look of the older branch building. I absolutely hate what they did to the interior. It now looks like every other BMO branch. It was dated but, in a good way. The whole white on white thing is just too popular to not eventually be very out.

Correct @CanadianNational. It was blue and sat atop the shorter Wellington tower. The outline / supports are still visible:

There's something deliciously 80s about closing that multi-million dollar real estate deal before taking a spry jog on the track above 'the office'.

The fly forms are almost gone on the east side of this building as per the Tridel webcam...

The dark doors on the lower balconies broke the cleanliness of the tower point. Hard to avoid, I guess.

NOP, I believe the doors aren't darker it's just weather the doors are open or not installed yet.

Looking at 10 York from the eastbound Gardiner, I can't help but feel that more glass, better materials, and a different colour would have made this building REALLY stand out.

 

[Lenser]

Yeah, I see it as a disappointing result. Nice wedge of a podium though, but above that it's fairly unremarkable.

They should have made the non-glass parts a bright Tridel Red.

Also, the tower's an "awkward" height as it relates to its neighbours. It feels tentative. It should have been a lot taller.
