This looks good. Hoping some restoration & polishing/upgrade of heritage exterior can happen. But, this isn’t Chicago. Toronto rarely does that. Lack of taste. Lack of donations. Budget.

Ugh is right.. Another dull grey rectangular, flat rooftop structure. It wasn’t flat in previous design, it had some flair. Roof looks flat here. So unimpressed by Pinnacle/H Pontarini near prime waterfront area.

Ok …

Don’t mind the diamond pattern but the colour of the building in this rendering is strange- Indistinguishable; Which is never a good sign.

I’m all in with this, only if it stays electric blue.

Nice to have some stylish, modernized architecture w colour in the middle of nowhere. While downtown core still stuck in colourlessness & uniformity gear.. . Improving but still bland & never bold.

Fresh & refreshing.✌️

More Vancouverites on this T.O. site please. Fresh perspective.

Never trust a night rendering pic. (they even know). Amexon + Core.

But of course it will get built. Two Gehry Towers!!. Original master design went from 3 to 2 buildings. It’s not going from 2 to 1 building. The market & city will be in much better shape by 2028. Right!?

Or a mix of moss & willow green. I don’t care, as long as it stays in the green fam.

Green. :)

When real estate bros w blinders on enter the chat. Other big factors are at play w this huge development. Yes, market dynamics (of course) + iconic vision of a legendary hometown architect-there’s a lot of pull in that. And sales have been surprisingly impressive w Forma. So? Wealthy big city...

I was definitely being more an optimist. So save the condo development & financing lesson-I’m well aware. And I strongly believe both Gehry towers will be built in his hometown. The nostalgia legacy thing is real; Lotta smart wealthy people appreciate iconic architects- 50% of the suites sold...

There must be a second tower. Not that I trust Toronto & the powers that be, but I do trust Frank Gehry Inc. w their drive & iconic vision.

Game changer for the city- Frank Gehry’s Forma. And don’t let anyone tell you differently. Moves UP a big notch. A little bit more variety & vibrancy of material & colour in skyline & T.O. is just winning going forward. Next Up: Streetscapes & Pedestrianizing streets.

Multi, modern & attractive seating in a Toronto park!?

Good idea. Good look.. Good philanthropy for the public realm. But the city & Bentway people must understand they need to re-paint everything under the expressway-viaduct columns too-or the view looks kinda shabby. Incomplete. Refresh w paint!! Still some sections looking rough.

In Toronto, there’s that one gorgeous red building & a sea of uniformity-colouring-wise. Like a “Sim replicant of towers” as someone put it. T.O. is not blessed with beautiful neo classical arch. that adds to a more interesting & classically beautiful skyline. It’s a nice skyline but IMO, it...

I don’t know. Shades of the gold or amber climbing up this building tall tower would make it stand out more. Not the same.
