I worked in that building for a few years. It's fun to have worked in a few of those iconic downtown towers.

Peek a boo. I see you.

Hard to believe the RBC building is almost 50 years old. I remember watching it go up as a kid.

A timeless beauty and still one of the best high-rise buildings in our city.

I'm still pissed they filled in the atrium.

NW corner…

The glass lifter…

Scaffold creation along north side…

New glazing…and pretty please, a titch more wattage for those bulbs in both towers!

And curious what art will adorn Phase Two? Similar to One?

Next, atop TD tower from Stratus…

That puny little office building attached to the arena has got to go! A waste of space and a wasted opportunity.

^A new tower with a cinema, some office space, a hotel and apartments would do well.

^^ CIBC Square Phase 2 inspired my new track on Spotify "I ... can't leave her"

Insert groan here___

The twin diamonds will be an impressive addition to our skyline, but looking at those yellow protection screens, I can't help wondering how stunning the tower would look if it had the same gold-tinted glass cladding as the RBC towers kitty-corner from it.

Haven’t you heard? Toronto is forever banished to the boring, blue-grey, glass tinted skyline abyss. Where beautiful hues like gold, amber & any other colour scheme under the sun is …outlawed.

Haven’t you heard? Toronto is forever banished to the boring, blue-grey, glass tinted skyline abyss. Where beautiful hues like gold, amber & any other colour scheme under the sun is …outlawed.

It's even reaching our subterranean levels where the cold and sterileness is dripping down to our subway stations.

People would react like a wolf seeing a full moon (a la 160 Front St W) if we dare even thought about putting multi-coloured LEDs on these 2 CIBC Square buildings.
