    I would love to sit in on this meeting. Is the public allowed to attend? Also, there happens to be a show on that night. How would one get to what I presume would be a meeting room?

    Toronto L-Tower | 204.82m | 58s | Cityzen | Daniel Libeskind

    After being away from the city for so many months it's good to see the skyline again as I drove in along the QEW. Ever changing and yet so familiar thanks to the iconic forever fixtures like the TD Bank towers, the CN Tower, the L Tower Crane... Ahh tradition. Seems like I’ve posted something...

    Considering the astronomical rental rates the crane companies charge, I can only assume the builders bought the damn thing outright. This thing must be holding some kind of record for the length of time it's been up.

    Great photos guys! It's been quite a while for me being away from the city. Homesick and looking forward to being back in a few months. Can't get over the changes going on in my neighbourhood. Love this building. Fell in love with the first artists concept illustrations. It's going to make a...

    Wow. Yeah right hehe. I've been hearing that sweet song from people who have come and long gone from that 'nabe' for the past 15 or so years. If it wasn't for all the vehicular traffic shortcutting their way to somewhere else the tumbleweeds would be blowing down those streets. But you do...

    Toronto Haven On The Bluffs Condos | 38.71m | 10s | VHL Developments | Master Building

    Spent a lot time down there as a kid. Used to go and slingshot rocks at the rats. Mind you, it was the Scarborough dump then. Lots of fun. Great memories. Got my first two wheeler there. (Well a a hybrid of several found.) Are the methane release pipes still sticking out of the side hills as...

    Well Eddie, I got to go with Modern on this one. I love the way this is snuggled in there and you just happen on to it. It's a modest piece, yet it delightfully surprises. It should illicit many a smile and curious wonderment in the years to come.

    Finally got a chance to see this sculpture up close and personal. I was surprised to see that Alien War of the Worlds tripod thingy lit up. I Like it! A shot of it all from a different angle than Roundabout\'s.

    WOOHOO!! You made my day with this post. I've been looking at those bleak white boxes across the street every time I went out the front door for a loooong time. That side of the Sony used to be so beautiful. Large pane windows, planter boxes with mature white birches cascading over the...

    Wow. That's fascinating! What a interesting spot to do some urban spelunking. If they find a blue Volkswagen, it's mine. Left the car and took the taxi home one night right about that time. Never could remember where I parked the damn thing once I sobered up.

    Thanks Modern for that excellent pic. Just another reminder of how the architect got it so right at street level and so abysmally wrong top side. Thanks to you Roundabout for the great pic of the finished sculpture. Let's pray the drunks and graffiti vandals don't attack. This is just so cool...

    Love that last pic. Looks like some interesting views for the future south facing residents. I'm a bit of a railway buff but even I couldn't stand the thought of having all those tracks under my nose. Still...

    Talk about derailing. Lol. And I'm afraid I started it way back. Time to get this choo choo back on track. As far as The Backstage parking for LTower tenants is going (a long long way off), anybody have any idea where the the first number of move in owners are going to put their cars...

    Of course. That makes sense. Thanks for the Wikipedia article link, Scamander. Interesting.
