It looks so bland.
I really fail to see how this building they've moved into is captivating anyone at all. The roof is horrible with the mechanical exposed, and the colour of the building is so cold.
For everyones info,
'Olympic Spirit' is doing what it was intended to do back when it was built. The Vancouver Olympics are being aired at Dundas Square all day from the screen on the torch, and CityTV has giant speakers set up on the building so you can listen to it all. I didn't see a single person watching, but it was nice to see.
I find it funny though that Rogers is airing CTV coverage of the games on their own building.

It's a mess on so many levels, albeit not as bad as it was before, but marginally improved. That's not saying much. I had great confidence in the beginning when renovations began, all but dispersed now. I'm glad the stage blocks the view when it's being used, poo on them for cheaping out.

You'll find that every conceivable variation of this argument has been exhausted in the Toronto Life Square thread around 2007-2008. But thanks anyway for the blast from the past.“More advertising”? Is that a joke? More advertising is the thing that this area needs by far the least. It's already inundated with advertising, making any events there (like the proroguing protest) seem more like live-action commercials than protests/etc. I wonder if Dundas Square's explosion of advertising would have been allowed without the precedent set by Times Square? Dundas Square seems to justify itself by the existence of Times Square; people accept its consumerism-run-amock aesthetic because it was glorified in New York first.
