Toronto The Bond | 138.68m | 42s | Lifetime | Core Architects COMPLETE

ADRM, I imagine it has to do with embracing an interesting skyline, with interesting components, something which we all would like to see, I believe. There doesn't have to be direct link between a limiting of height and the standard outcomes which are evident. But it may be a factor if the developer is limited in ROI because of height limits in these desirable quarters. Maybe someone more adept than I at financing these kinds of investments can wade in on this. Certainly, there are other factors at play which churn out all these facsimiles. It's still a good discussion to have.

I love this generation in which 130 to 150 metres is seen as short. Maybe in another five years, it will be. Our planning system is part of the problem. Our planners do everything to mold and shape our skyline. Developers are perfectly fine with a table top.
 
A truly basic project. Surprised I could say that about a Core designed building. I'll just chalk it up to the builder.
 
The other evening…
