^^^Now every time I look at this building, it won't be merely ugly, it'll be menacing. Thanks. lol

Looks like a CIBC is moving next door to Shoppers...

Such a riveting collection of retailers here.

Matches the architecture above.

Added Subway, Pizza Pizza and we're done.

If there was ever to be a building where there'd be a Shoppers and a Rexall, methinks this'd be it.

Retail like this is ruing the pedestrian experience in Toronto! Toronto used to be known for its high percentage of independent, creative stores but sadly, that is changing very quickly. Toronto is starting to look like every dull, corporate American city I visit! I don't want a Subway on every damned corner of this city! (nor a Shoppers or a bank)

Not many non-chains can afford the high rent. Plus the lifeless base of these buildings lend themselves to the chain aesthetic.

Starbucks
Bank
Shoppers/Rexall
Subway

At least 1 or 2 of these are going into the base of every new project.

Though to be fair, there was never any street retail on this site previously.

Yeah, I think I will need some Lorazepam after staring at this thing.

I think people are a bit too negative about the podium of this one. Would y'all have preferred glass and panel?

The retail is unfortunate, but that is an economic problem.

 

[stjames2queenwest]

The podium is nice. Definitely more successful than the tower

 

[interchange42]

Three angles from the weekend (none of them good):

[Amare]

Oh my good lord. This hands down wins the award for worst development of 2018 without a question, I cant believe how horrific this is. There's not even one angle that would make this look at least somewhat appealing, Lanterra this is just disgusting.

 

[.dwg]

Haven't looked at this thing in awhile... Holy shit that's bad.
