Thought I liked Koops creating a flyby to enhance the skyline even more . The end product of this developer's skyline looks too uniformed . I'm pretty sure they'll come with something better.
I think the heights of the office towers are too table-toppish and they should be more varied in height. Also, I'm disappointed there is no signature tower...
Yeah they will eventually have to break the ice here and forget about the 1/2 dozen or so big office towers being planned and built downtown
...a signature super tall tower would be a nice start
Anyone else agree that the residential tower in the middle of the offices is a little misplaced? Has basically no views but office towers...great place to live. I mean if you swapped it with 1D or 2D I feel like it would be an easier sell to prospective buyers. Though in our current market it will probably sell out regardless, but seems like an odd spot. Also, considering it isn't taller than the office towers near by, it would have been better similar to the Sunlife Financial and its two towers that are much taller.
Just my 2 cents.
Personally the previous rendering looked more pleasant to look at than this one. This one looks too dense and formal with buildings and no park space etc.
Looks good - liking the mixed use rather than only office.
It will be interesting to compare the progress of this mega development with the Downsview and 2150 Lake Shore (Christie's) developments over the next 10 years or so...
I hope the variation heights looks better from an angle that is closer to ground level, but the renders make it look like we're just building a taller version of downtown Ottawa. Not a good thing.
