Looks like a big snore.

The heritage facades are an excellent feature, but the tower itself looks like it needs further refinement -- like it's still an early draft.

Do you know if the heritage buildings are designated Magnus?

 

[ProjectEnd]

A perfect example of 'designing outside of the box' gone horribly awry.

I didn't realize this tower was encompassing the entire historic superblock. - That podium will be enormous!

All I see is broken links.

Sort of reminds me of the Met. Wow, building design in Toronto is definitely stuck in a rut, and even the better designs.

 

[SP!RE]

... except the MET looks 10x better than this.

 

[ladyscraper]

Is that correct? It looks like some ugly Miami building.

Sometimes i wonder if people here like "The Box" more than the curves.

I think you may have just nailed this one ~

 

[SP!RE]

What a silly conclusion to jump to just because people don't like this ONE design, which isn't even creatively curved. It's a box with a strange curving growth tacked lazily on to it.

There are many curved towers I absolutely love, but this is not one.
