Hrm, Limberlost sounds like a village for a side quest with elves. But I’ll echo the sentiment that it’s best they didn’t go with the donor family name. Apart from the obvious puns involving Cockwell and wood, I’d be hearing “Coxwell” all the time.
Yeah, somewhere between Eversong Woods and the Ghostlands in Quel'Thalas...

It would be cool if a different institution picked up the Shigeru Ban + Brook McIlroy design. It truly pushed the bar with its brilliant organ-like design. Perhaps U of T could use it for their medical school at UTSC. It would also make for a signature midrise office building for one of the upcoming East Bayfront/Port Lands projects.

Drove QQ today around 2pm and they were assembling a crane. Pretty sure it was this site. But as I was driving around cones and lane closures and potholes I really didn’t look to closely.
Anyone else able to confirm?
