    Toronto Quay House | 73.15m | 21s | Empire | Kirkor Architects

    More pointlessly 'offset' bland cladding. Trying to provoke interest without quality and concede to ornament, without talent .

    Toronto 45 Strachan | 131.97m | 39s | BentallGreenOak | Hariri Pontarini

    A rare misfire from HP - and, wow! What a misfire. It's as if HP decided to clone The Social with a few curvy frills.

    Hamilton 1 Jarvis Street | 49.5m | 14s | Emblem Developments | Studio JCI

    Ugh. It's a goddamn hallway with some appliances and a notch thrown in.

    Hamilton 1107 Main Street West | 50.96m | 15s | IN8 Developments | srm Architects

    If 'The Thing' were a building, caught mid-transformation.

    Kitchener TEK Tower | 144.5m | 45s | IN8 Developments | srm Architects

    Well! Though activity has been awfully slow, looks like a corner was turned today as the tower proper began to be set back from the base. Huzzah. la Rendering: The thing, itself.

    Toronto Artistry Condos | 103.5m | 29s | Tribute | Graziani + Corazza

    Oooof. What an ugger. The base already looks like a failed renovation of a 70's office building. Nice to see G&C are continuing their tradition of gross asymmetry on important facades. .

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

    This is ridiculous. Thanks for writing, though. I think I'll write them a letter, myself. I think we all should. His email is: Daniel.Picheca@toronto.ca

    Toronto Oak House at Canary Landing | 162.61m | 46s | Dream | Henning Larsen

    Ever since the city went into some kind of grey paroxysm after the Opera House, we've got about twenty years of leaden-coloured builds to overcome. Personally, I'd love to see a moratorium on grey in Toronto architecture for the next fifteen years. Or allow it on no more than a quarter of a...

    Toronto East Harbour Transit Hub | 14.35m | 1s | Metrolinx | Metrolinx

    This station, in this iteration, is an insult. It's awful. Not even the basics seem to be cared about: guaranteed level boarding, enclosure from the weather, an engaging street presence with interesting amenities within. That's without even asking for really interesting and/or stellar...

    Kitchener TEK Tower | 144.5m | 45s | IN8 Developments | srm Architects

    Lovely lighting this evening. It's wonderful to see the light returning to the sky later each day. View from the back-end of downtown. The TEK tower is there on the left.

    Kitchener King Victoria Transit Hub | ?m | 2s | Metrolinx | WZMH

    I don't get it. The lot that was just bought [ at Duke and Victoria] is a long way east of the proposed new terminal. It sits between the current GO-VIA station and the proposed new one. Why is this land listed as being part of the new terminal? Or is it simply some kind of density upzone or...

    Toronto Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    A lot of the lower visual riff-raff will be subsumed by trees and buildings. What remains there is part of what makes the Portlands interesting - the side-by-side setting of all these outsize contrasts. The huge lake. The sweeps of naturalized lands. The giant bones and means of industry. Ya...

    Toronto Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    Here's a couple pics. Not quite as ravishing as the ones contributed, but I was wandering through yesterday, and thought I'd take some snaps. The feeling that something very big has (and is) happening there is really magnified by going to the area. The huge, subtle curves of the new landscape...
