People are going to like this one. It's by a firm many have wished would come to Toronto for years...

Zaha Hadid?

 

[cd concept]

I'm hoping they're going to at least keep those rustic antique facades on Spadina and King St. And build on top with something that will blend in with old buildings lol!

 

[Undead]

Graziani and Corazza?

Graziani and Corazza?

He said people wished they'd come to Toronto, not leave Toronto forever

Another *starchitect* is most welcome but hope this doesn't impact (delay or nix) Allied's plans for the great Sweeny & Co design for 96 Spadina.

Morris Adjmi!

Adjmi's at the top of my list (and the Dream Quayside proposal knocked two others off of it). I'd also add:

Solid Objectives
Chipperfield
Grafton
5468796
OMA
KKAA
Zumthor
Frida Escobedo
Hawkins Brown
Gort Scott
LAN
Barozzi Veiga
Haptic
Mae

Zaha Hadid?

Zaha isn't *really* Zaha anymore...but I guess it'd quality? MVRDV? I'd love a Toyo Ito or a SANAA but that's probably expecting too much (nor are they particularly known for office builds).

But not many on that list belong to "many who wanted to come for years". It suggest a firm with a high level of familiarity to forumers and one that has been around for awhile.
