^Um, the site already is an "epic landmark" that is "completely out of the ordinary and unique for Toronto." I just wish they'd have a museum here, not a condo tower.
At the end of the day I find it incredibly short-sighted that these outstanding buildings end up as overwrought condo lobbies!
Plain and simple, at the end of the day these fabulous buildings are owned by the private sector and not the public...i guess that gives them the right to do what they want with them, that is as long as they keep them intact.
I agree... or maybe still a jewell-box of a theatre in a modernist shell that embraces the two heritage structures, and with a modernist tower of 'reasonable' height rising above?

Actually no, that's why you have zoning by-laws. Owning something doesn't mean carte blanche.

I like the theatre idea. I could see something more along the lines of a small art gallery. Not the kind of thing you'd expect on Yonge, but it could work.I agree... or maybe still a jewell-box of a theatre in a modernist shell that embraces the two heritage structures, and with a modernist tower of 'reasonable' height rising above?
