    Toronto 1293 Bloor West | 104.6m | 28s | RioCan | Kirkor Architects

    Same! I cut down that laneway almost every day and it's a cute little building.

    Toronto QRC West Phase 2 (Queen Richmond Centre West) | 35.96m | 7s | Allied | Sweeny &Co

    Little Nicky's. I don't think they ever did. It's a shame, it was v cute.

    Toronto Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    By Sephora standards, that's downright calm!

    Toronto Bloor & Dufferin | 122.35m | 37s | Hazelview | Turner Fleischer

    I wasn't a huge fan of the previous proposal (mostly around ensuring affordable units and rentals in an area that really needs them), but it got a lot right. But these? These are depressing. The heritage retention is predictably abysmal, too.

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

    Looks great! Those plastic bins though 🤦‍♀️ I swear, this cheap-as-muck city never misses a chance to foot-gun itself

    TMU: Law School (101-111 Gerrard St E, Ryerson, ?s, ?)

    What? You wouldn't want to buy a City University of Toronto sweatshirt with "See You Next Tuesday" printed on the back?

    Waterfront Transit Reset Phase 1 Study

    There's been a similar "urban marsh" at Corktown Common for years and I'm fairly certain nobody's died from tropical diseases as a result.

    Toronto Alias | 160.52m | 48s | Madison Group | Teeple Architects

    I dunno, I just can't unsee it:

    Toronto Crosstown LRT: Oakwood Station | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | Arcadis

    Is that permanent public art? It's fun! Love the burst of colour, especially since this is a view terminus coming up Oakwood.

    Toronto York University: Joan and Martin Goldfarb Gallery | 6.71m | 1s | York University | Hariri Pontarini

    The Absinthe was in my college, Winters. Many's the night I'd stay there until last call, stumble across the quad to bed, then go right back the next morning to get a cheese bagel and a pint of Coke to try and shake off the damage.

    Toronto The Bentway (was Under Gardiner) | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    In addition to the other, more substantive critiques, I'd just like to make sure we don't miss that 5468796's proposal brings us "Bent Buddies", which sounds like the world's lamest LGBTQ dating app.

    Toronto Peter and Adelaide | 152.39m | 47s | Graywood | BBB

    Welp, I guess that explains why they didn't bother lining up the brick precast with the support columns.

    Toronto St Lawrence Market North | 25.3m | 5s | City of Toronto | Rogers Stirk Harbour

    It's all one building – the space between the two barrel vaults are a central atrium; the ground floor will hold the north market.

    Toronto GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Building the span in steel means it can be lifted into place in-between CP trains, without interrupting freight operations. Doing it in concrete would mean setting up forms, rebar work, pouring, curing, tearing down forms, all of which is so much more disruptive I assume it would be a...

    Toronto 906 Yonge Street | 139.17m | 40s | Gupta | Arcadis

    I guess they're not going with CanadianNational's truly inspired idea to put the mock tudor on top of the tower, like a hat. To each their own...

    Toronto 1129 Dufferin | ?m | 3s | BN Engineering

    I've always wondered what the deal was with the little one-story guy with the giant "M" painted on front. Just one of those fun, inexplicable things.
