The large door on the north side of the bridge isn’t open today. Apparently it’s not working. The bridge is still open but access is by a small door by Harry Rosen.

CF has just made the pedestrian bridge into a new Toronto landmark, in my opinion.

 

[kotsy]

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say it's a landmark but it is extremely cool.

Had a chance to walk along this on Friday evening with the lighting on. This is indeed extremely cool.

They did a phenomenal job with the bridge. The design is distinctive and memorable, the finishes suit the space, there's room for a lot of people, and the user experience has been enhanced by eliminating the doors. The subtle details like the etched bronze panels on the exterior and the windows that let you see the terracotta panels on the exterior of the Bay from up close elevate the design. The Saks walkway leading up to the bridge is also sublime for the floor tiles.

What's a Bridg?

That's not a bridg. It's a brdige.

CF has just made the pedestrian bridge into a new Toronto landmark, in my opinion.

It's really the only thing they've got totally right so far in all their meddling with the Toronto Eaton Centre.

I took some videos of it today.

I wish the Harry Rosen didn't jut out like that. It shouldn't extend any farther than the atrium wall above it in my opinion, it blocks the hall visually and physically in an annoying way for the benefit of some mannequins on display.

One sign of good design is that anyone can take a good picture of it without any fancy equipment. Took this tonight on a regular old iPhone.
