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!
 
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).

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

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.
