wylie^they are actually build that ,serious it is the next major project in dubai.ba looks great!
I really don't see how it will disrupt the "canyon" in any major way. Having it built slightly farther from Bay St will make for a nicer sidewalk (which is so crazy-busy during the day).
I think we all hate this project because we've all got building envy. While other major cities around the world are building innovative stunning commerical projects, Toronto never strives to innovate or achieve greatness. Its something that really annoys me about this city and its people.
Toronto's building booms seem to coincide with periods of modernism. To wit, the preponderance here of boring boxy towers. Yeah they're fine examples of minimalism and....blah blah blah. Somebody dig up ol' Mies' corpse and piss on it for me, will ya!
I find it perplexing how in the course of this whole thread, the matter of how the tower's going to disrupt the Bay Street "canyon" has essentially come and gone without a peep...
Okay... well how IS it going to disrupt the canyon? Failing to augment the canyon - which seems to be the case - is not the same as disrupting it.
