Maybe "Internation Orange/Campbell's Soup" isn't a top favourite. I think there could be some appreciation that Cinema is not the twin of Festival. Or that the podium is at least different.

Maybe Rio-Can is waiting for the right opportunity to make this into a residential/mixed use development? Just keeping the land empty costs money. But building a cheap new building could get a tenant that could generate revenue. OR Rio-Can could be building this so that it could receive a...

True story.

Will this building help the future CityPlace buildings (Spectra, Quartz, etc) in terms of the vibrancy or excitement of the materials? I think CityPlace looks handsome.. and the TCHC is something that could only help improve on the future development of the neighbourhood.

I find CityPlace to be very handsome. Personally, I think Concord wants their Signature Tower.. to be a Signature Tower. Which is why we have seen all the towers in CityPlace have a certain aesthetic.

This proposal can be worrying.. but I think its good to look at some of the deeper things about the waterfront: (1) WT has built a good standard of design. Sugar Beach and Sherbourne Common are a great precedence to have on the waterfront. People bring life to those projects. (2) CNE and...

Culture?

I just got back from the Netherlands like 2 weeks ago. Rotterdam is an architect's playground, it was interesting.

Ford isn't the brightest Mayor Toronto has had... but I don't think he will stand in the way of this at all. Look at the team, 3 developers, 3 architecture firms and Claude! This development will definitely stand as a precedent for the rest of the Lower Don Lands.

"10 Star" hotel. http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=592365 I think I'm happy with 5 stars.

This factory won't change a thing. For all we know there could be a functional reason that the factory must stay there. Maybe they aren't getting the price they want for their property yet. Or what if the land is contaminated.. many developers don't want to pay anymore than they need for a piece...

We also live in a world with 6 and 7 Star hotels.

Interesting, thank you.

Whether you feel this is a benefit to Canada or not... I don't see it happening. This would be too much ammo for oppositions in Ontario and Canada, which is something Harper and McGuinty do not want to have to deal with. There is also the fact that Canadians generally do not accept foreign...

So excited for this.

Thats boss right there.

Hate to sound like a realist. All cities want more people. Period.

I don't think it would happen. If it were, it would have to happen to every city in Ontario. I find it silly that the right called Miller's term a "regime" (in a negative way) and yet it is the right proposing that the Mayor's vote is more powerful than all of the councilors.

Oh studio and coffee. Probably the best part of planning.

Wal Mart-Ryerson Student Learning Centre? On Yonge? That'd be some serious drama.
