yep, Aura would look great in that green. Now it is just one of those greys.

I actually think the blue works well with Aura as the curved upper portion tends to reflect/blend in with the sky nicely.

That last pic of Jack's looks awesome. loving the intense greenery echoed by the strip of high-rises along Yonge. taken with a drone?

Yessir!

Time to get that drone closer to some big buildings!

We are starting to get a bit more comfortable with it. Recent flights have been mostly altitude testing and low level strafing, and we still feel like a grassy comfort zone is needed. It won't be long before I can convince the owner of the thing to take it in to the concrete jungle, but there is a learning curve with the camera and flight controls operated separately

That is so great that you have access to a drone with a camera! I can't wait to see future photos once you polite are more comfortable with it.

You can now see both Emerald City & Hullmark from Mt Pleasant just south of Lawrence where the road is on a hill.

Nice . I'm often lined up like those cars in your photo, so as NYCC grows it'll give me something to look at.

Call me an architectural philistine if you will, but I'm liking these towers. The flare is a simple but elegant gesture, and the towers have character. I don't hate the cladding.

Green is so polarizing that it seems a waste to use in something permament like architecture. Even though it uses window wall--which is cheaper and uglier than curtain wall--if it were black, impressions would be more consistently positive.

I agree with you, I actually like these towers as well.

I like the green. Certainly different than the many shades of gray and black that are used on most new buildings.
