Another ugly lump on the waterfront. Just awful.

Tridel gonna Tridel. Looks like a suburban office building.

Bland massing made worse by cheap cladding.

Tridel gonna Tridel. Looks like a suburban office building.

Not just one suburban office building. Looks like a number of them awkwardly and haphazardly lumped together. IMO, one of the uglier buildings on the waterfront, and considering the stock we have down there right now, that's saying a lot.

What a shame. On the doorstep of our city. How did this get across a design panel?

The same way the other crap has.

The design panel's influence is limited at best.

 

[WislaHD]

Not impressive at all.

To be quite honest, when construction started, it looked promising, but as it rose, it got more and more bland. You guys are right, it looks more like an office building than a residential one.

The window wall is incredibly ugly and, frankly, inexcusable. It ruins the whole thing.
