Toronto Market Wharf | 110.33m | 33s | Context Development | a—A

My only quibble is that the top askew bit seems a bit too short and out of proportion. I wish it was one or maybe two floors higher, just to make the effect more pronounced. Also, is that windowall on the north elevation crooked, or is that an artifact of the photo? It looks like it has a couple of wicked unintentional kinks in it.
 
The top two floors are not a perfect U - the east side, and part of the north, are on an angle, while the west side if parallel to Market Street. The modified U, of course, has its opening at the south end.
 
Looking south on Jarvis from Carlton. Market Wharf will soon dominate this view.

did a walk through of the condo this weekend and took some pics

the windows were dirty and the podium units floors 2-4 were locked so the views are from floors 5 and 6
West and north views only

enjoy

A look into the interior courtyard from the south at street level. That should be a pretty nice private space once the tower encloses the south side.

I like how it looks now. The tower will just mess up the proportions.

I understand what you're saying to a certain extent. The original plan was for the tower to be higher but they had to cut back. Even still, every time I look at the current renderings I'm very impressed. Could it be better? Well, that was the plan. But it's still going to be a stellar looking building and will proportionately be just fine. Not saying you don't have a point. You do.

Any idea what the plans are for it? If I recall correctly it'll be a green roof, right? I think the townhomes in the sky will have little backyards and then it'll be a green roof in the middle. I hope it'll be a space that everyone can use and townhome residents won't feel that other residents are in their "backyards".
 
i also have a few south views that i forgot about

canuk87, from where did you take this picture? was it from last west-south market town? upper or lower floor? or was it from one of the market flat units?
