Toronto Concord Sky | 299m | 85s | Concord Adex | Kohn Pedersen Fox

Demolition in full force this morning

Say goodbye to all the brown tone coloured buildings of the past as shown in the photo above. Blue green and black and white facade buildings will dominate this Yonge Street intersection in the future !
 
Razz took an early shot of the tall mural underway downtown (before details).... couldn't find the final render.... wondering if the old RU tower could use a dose of that.kind of colour. Sleek YSL skyscraper meets colour/story nearby. RU surface may not be as friendly to the brush though...

P.S. not an enemy of brutalism. Just always thought the old RU crossed the line.

I didn't take that picture.
 
they met the building codes of their time. current buildings wont meet the building codes of future. building codes change with time and technology.
