That's not excavation, they started forming already, they have footings complete, and working on columns and walls. They were getting ready for slab-on-grade as well which requires a different trade than the concrete forming guys. They're already moving up at Aura, they're at different stages of...

I don't know if you're kidding, or just ignorant. How about you walk by the site instead of looking at pictures taken through chain-link fence. And really, how many guys do you expect to have on site during excavation? Couple of supers, couple of operators, couple of labourers, that's about it...

Gotta love wannabe interior designers.

It's not really a podium, looks like a separate structure on the site. Some may forget that this is a huge housing complex and that the lofts are another element to the complex. It would be incorrect to say that this building is a "podium" for Absolute Towers 4 and 5. Personally, I think it's a...

I would. Yonge + Esplanade?!?! That's a hot spot my friend. And they're tearing down the overhead for trains at union station and replacing it with glass. Should make for a much better site.

Totally agree. It looks like a complete disaster. What's done is done, move on MAD, do something else, create a name for yourselves by doing many different things, not by beating an old drum.

The gym and spa have been complete for months. All other amenities are complete. There was an opening and viewing last weekend. Everything looked beautiful. They put tons of money into this place, unlike my last building.

That's Todd from EDGE 102

The furniture is beautiful. Fits in with the whole "London" scheme perfectly. I'm sure that the pieces were selected very carefully by the interior designer and are only a few of many more to come.

This is an absolute joke. Such a massive and soon-to-be iconic piece of not only Toronto Waterfront but CANADIAN Waterfront yet again gets destroyed by the Americans. How many great builders are there in Toronto? Plenty. This just goes to show you how Waterfront Toronto is at it yet again with...

I live in the building and to say that the amenities are incomplete is false. The gym and spa areas are open. The pool and a few other areas on not yet open. What's so ridiculous and frustrating about that? 95% of the people living in the building are renters anyways so be prepared to see these...

I've spoken with an insider and this is completely, 100% false. The project is right on schedule. What the user describes makes absolutely no sense at all with the L Tower project. Perhaps the user has it mixed-up with another project?

The hoist(s) run through the elevator shaft(s), inside the building. Not as difficult a concept as one may have originally thought.

Take your awful photoshop "skills" somewhere else. You just made a mockery of a fine development, shameful!!

1 Front St. East is the address of the Sony Centre. L Tower is a separate building, on the corner of Yonge and Esplanade. There's no possible way it could have a "Front Street" address.

With that in mind, would you like then to see the tower on the Pier 27/Waterlink sight fit in with these "mistakes on the waterfront"? Don't think so...

You must keep in mind that parking must be allotted for residents of L Tower, 5-7 The Esplanade, and public parking for commercial space in the podium of 5-7. Before going after the developer, look at what the city requires. Perhaps they had to decrease visitor parking and bicycle spaces to...

What context? As of now, there is no waterfront, it consists of a run-down restaurant on a boat, a sugar factory, and some barren lands that WT is so secretive about (bayside, see east bayfront forum). This project is setting the trend for the waterfront, creating a previously non-existent said...

A question that goes hand-in-hand with recent posts: If these buildings are in fact out of place at Hurontario and Burnamthorpe, where do they belong?? Please be thorough. I'm a firm believer that these buildings wouldn't look better anywhere else so I'd like to pick the brains of those who...

Easy on the criticism...your sly, wordy comparisons are completely irrelevant and offensive. These towers are a waste? Mississauga is a great city and every great city deserves their landmark. Hazel is finally getting it. Kudos to Cityzen and Fernbrook, what they're doing for Mississauga is...
