I think for Casa they used actual bricks

Casa is a little different. It is a brick facade while most of this is a glass building with brick accents (lentils)

Really? from 58s/171m to 51s/153m

 

[stjames2queenwest]

153m is still pretty tall

 

[NorthshoreCity]

153m is still pretty tall

True, and also within the threshold which the CTBUH defines as a skyscraper.

 

[cd concept]

Yes it's still surpasses the 150 meter mark to be a legit skyscraper. It's just a little bit shorter than the Shelby. Love to see a fly by on this one if you can Koops !

This iteration of the proposal has some tangible benefits for the community, notably in expanding and reorganizing (and refurbishing) St. Jamestown West park.

The restoration of the heritage property at the corner and some good public realm/streetscape investments also look promising.

The tower is a tad ho hum.....but I like the way they've handled the podium. Overall seems worthwhile.

Yeah, good read -- the tower is mostly garbage, but it actually looks to hit the ground pretty well (and better than a whole helluva lot of towers going up these days) on at least two of the frontages; the porosity and materiality at grade there looks quite positive.

The podium is the best thing about it. The tower itself? Unremarkable.

It’s a standard medallion building. Same sort of style as 45 Lisgar and their building in Ajax.
