With no information at all trickling out of city planning - or elsewhere - and TIFF passing them by, I would have to conclude things are in a holding pattern.
Toronto Forma | 308m | 84s | Great Gulf | Gehry Partners
- Thread starter golodhendil
- Start date
A press conference would have been scheduled for TIFF with invites going out weeks ago had they planned something for TIFF. Nothing of the sort was sent out (at least not to us).

I found this article by a Boston Globe reporter covering TIFF
My usual modus operandi at Toronto is to pound four to five movies a day for five or six days (or until my brain turns to cream cheese), while reporting back to you, the reader. each year, I pledge to be more choosy, and then
I arrive in downtown Toronto — the cleaner, nicer New York — and everything goes to hell.

I find it odd that the development signs on the site still show the 3 towers.

Not sure what financial backing has to do with it. Zoning doesn't allow 3 towers. Outdated renderings is a fitting tribute to Projectcore's sole partnership with a previous experienced developer named Harry Stinson

developers are only required to place the signs on site upon the initial application, not on resubmissions. Especially not on final zoning approval, which this one has.

Oh. I don't know if I like it as much now that I see it's an elephant. But it's a very interesting texture. Cool that they made an elephant building... Just maybe too literal for me
1. Not an elephant. It's the headless Winged Victory of Samothrace, currently residing in the Louvre, blowed up real good and rendered in dark glass.
2. The building does not exist. Good luck to Russian architect Vasily Klyukin getting it built, somewhere, anywhere, looking anything like it looks in the renderings.
3. Totally off topic.

I hope they build this awesome building(s) because it will take the attention away from those ugly 40-50 floor, cheap, glass towers in the surrounding area.
