Ontario Place, the McLaughlin Planetarium and The Science Centre were my go-to places as a teen in the 70s. Why does the provincial government have to get rid of all the good stuff?
I'm not in construction, but one reason could be because it's easier to deliver large items, supplies, and heavy equipment to a given floor when there aren't any windows in the way.
I remember everyone joking about @Benito passing coffee over when they reached eye level. Can't believe that day is here. I also can't believe the building is only a third of its (requested) height.
