So is it bad just because it's classical architecture, or is it bad because it's a blatantly poor attempt at classical architecture?
I'd say the latter. It looks like stacks of fireplaces.

I too like the classically looking towns on Scollard ... negative comments on these townhouses don't suprise me though, cuz new building that 'attempt' to be classical generally don't seem to fetch good responses on UT
Not true. Most people - myself included - were pretty sympathetic about Robert AM Stern's design for 1 St. Thomas.
If you are going to attempt a Palladian villa in the 21st century, you'd better get the details right: the massing, the symmetry, the materials, the mullions on the windows, the Rennaisance window frames. Stern can somehow pull this off and make it look like a class act, while anything less is garbage.
