From a distance, these will literally stand out from the rest of the Entertainment District, being ~40 metres taller.

Aren't those two towers to the west of the park as seen in the photos up above. Going to block the sun in the morning on the park below. It's funny that they would give the height to theses two towers. And not to other towers in the entertainment district.

^yes because they fought for more height, wasnt easy for them.

Another set of twin towers and these look similar to the King Blue twins (and Maverick step sister) a block North. I know this drum gets beat a lot, but this one seems really egregious.

Towers B and C are as bland as it can be architecturally...the smaller tower at the corner of Front and Spadina seems a bit cooler with its set backs, looking a bit more like a wavy building.

I always like for brick like podiums in this neighbourhood but not happening here. With these being one of the last parking lots to be redeveloped in the Entertainment District, corner building A is a-OK I guess....but would have been much better with design cues from the neighbourhood like how the Well does it

The residents of building B on the west side will have an unobstructed protected (by Clarence Square) sideline view all the way down Wellington West!

Well those are the arch docs in the link provided. Since the appeal to LPAT this summer was successful, I would venture these are current for the site-plan... I'll leave it to ferusian to reconfirm if he/she wishes.

With the right materials and attention, these buildings proposed could look really good when completed.

The images posted are from the rezoning. The Site Plan docs have not yet been uploaded. It's doubtful they'll be much different from these, but they aren't online yet.

Everything Kirkor touches turn out to be sh*t so don't expect much here.
