Toronto Alter | 107.89m | 33s | Tridel | a—A


^

That's the best shot I've seen of Alter. It's a decent-looking building from this angle, and at this distance.

That doesn't change my disappointment at how it appears from anything remotely close-up.

Stitched a few of the recent @Benito aerial updates together into this:

It's so ugly.

Like, I'm amazed it made it through the approval process. I can't think of a single new condo in this entire city that looks as bad as this one. Grid Condos does the same idea infinitely better.
 
The podium itself is ugly but at least it’s bright and inviting at street level, compared to say the 87 Peter parkade
 
Definitely falls into the category of beautiful from afar (well, at least interesting), but far from beautiful up close
 
Funny that the architect of this has since left aA. Let's hope Form turns out better than this.

I can't imagine how they're trying to lease the office floors...
 
Form has the better concept design. It's not just the cladding used here.

The office levels are for a non-profit that existed on the site prior to redevelopment, from my understanding.
