Holy. That looks amazing.

Thankfully, this is coming from Devron, who has a portfolio that includes The Winslow and The Vanguard, which are similar styles. So I have confidence that this isn't going to be too watered down in the end.
 
The Vanguard is a hilarious cheapout version of One St. Thomas which misses everything that building got right. The podium / at-grade portions are especially atrocious.
 
We have a front page story up where, among other things, Marc Mitanis follows the history of the building, and there's now a database file attached at the top of the page.

Wow.

A beautiful restoration and a fitting tower on top. It of course could turn out badly with the wrong materials, but this may be my favourite proposal of 2020.

I wish more historical structures would get the same treatment, instead of dropping a giant glass box on top of them.
