    Toronto Pinnacle Lakeside (Phase 1) | 174.86m | 54s | Pinnacle | Hariri Pontarini

    More generic walls of glass at street level, which is exactly what this city does not need.

    Toronto 400 King West | 157.37m | 48s | Plaza | BDP Quadrangle

    Another generic podium with the dreaded walls of glass. That ruins a development for me but sadly, it looks like this new design did a number on the whole podium.

    Toronto West Don Lands: Blocks 17 & 26 | 141m | 43s | Aspen Ridge | Core Architects

    These buildings have so much potential to be more than just generic condos. I love those huge windows and always assumed these handsome buildings would be kept for something all Torontonians could enjoy, like a great food hall, a major cultural attraction or at the very least, a market place. I...

    Toronto Leslie Lookout Park | ?m | ?s | CreateTO | CCxA

    A sun tanning beach with no access to the lake or a water feature to cool off in? Sounds kind of brutal too me, Even Sugar Beach has a small water fountain for kids and adults to cool off in. That seems rather short sighted with the hotter summers we are going to be getting.

    Toronto West Don Lands: Blocks 17 & 26 | 141m | 43s | Aspen Ridge | Core Architects

    I find this to be deplorable and the justification for it is an outright lie. I am not happy at all!

    Toronto CIBC SQUARE | 241.39m | 50s | Hines | WilkinsonEyre

    I filmed the new GO Terminal inside CIBC Square and I was surprised to see how empty the place was.

    Toronto Nobu Residences Toronto | 156.66m | 45s | Madison Group | Teeple Architects

    Speaking of sky-bridges, while I do like the bronze colour of this development, I much prefer the original design, with the bridge on top.

    Toronto 100 Queens Quay at Sugar Wharf | 117.34m | 25s | Menkes | B+H

    I have noticed that when anybody questions the quality of a developer's buildings, you are always jump in to defend the developers and justify the worst buildings, saying things like it could have been worse. Is your ambition for this city to just be happy being average? Is that something that...

    Toronto Monde | 149.95m | 44s | Great Gulf | Moshe Safdie

    I hope the west side of the building, facing the park, puts in retail that benefits from the location, like a cafe, restaurant or bar. That area is suitable for patios and outside dining. A medical clinic, nail salon or pot shop does not benefit in any way by facing a public park. It would be a...

    Toronto Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    Oh yes, there are lots of interesting things that can be done here. My ideas are just off the top of my head and only a start. I also would want to see beautiful landscaping and greenery throughout the whole attraction. I would love to see an indoor/year round tropical garden, which could be a...

    Toronto Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    There is already passive parkland on both sides of Ontario Place, as well as much of the waterfront in that area. It's almost surrounded by parks, so I fail to see why we need more of the same in this area. Ontario Place needs to have a higher purpose than just more passive parkland. It needs to...

    Toronto Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    YEP! I am so relieved, for now. That being said, I can't wait until they bring back the fun and turn it back into a major tourist attraction but hopefully, year-round this time.

    Toronto Regent Park: Phases 4 and 5 | 134.1m | 39s | Tridel | Karakusevic Carson Architects

    I hope grey is not the predominate colour of future development here!

    45 Elm Street (Freda's, 3s, Burdifilek)

    The original building was so much nicer. This is dreadful!

    Toronto Mirabella Condominiums | 120m | 38s | Mirabella Dev Corp | Scott Shields

    This looks horrible and the fact that it is right on the waterfront and will not be blocked out by other buildings, only makes this more egregious. I hate that the city (or province) allows buildings this ugly to go up! I wish more people cared about architecture and beautiful buildings and...

    Toronto CIBC SQUARE | 241.39m | 50s | Hines | WilkinsonEyre

    This is mainly just the bridge and escalators filmed from inside and outside the Scotiabank Arena.

    Toronto The Well | 174.03m | 46s | RioCan | Hariri Pontarini

    I took a walk around The Well recently mainly to check out the size and proportions of the shopping/pubic spaces throughout The Well and here is the video I filmed.

    Toronto Toronto Island Park Master Plan | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto

    Could that not be said about much of Toronto? You want nature, go to the Spit? You will have miles of greenery and very little else. You want quiet areas, Toronto is full of ravines that are packed with trees and very few people. In fact, Toronto has more green ravines than any other major city...

    Toronto Toronto Island Park Master Plan | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto

    When I was a kid, the only things I liked about Centre Island was the ferry ride, the farm animals and Centreville. The rest of the park was no different from our local neighbourhood park. If we are going to create a landmark park, serious money needs to be spent and some new attractions need to...
