Wow. What an original design. The way the segments start as shorter rectangles and elongate and change into a coffin like shape as they ascend is amazing. The base is square and morphs into a circle at the top with a beautiful crown. Really looking forward to this.
We have a front page story up, including our talk with Jeanne Gang. You'll also find our database file linked at the top of the page, with higher-res renderings than you've seen up to this point.

+1 any new development moving away from a glass rectangle. Bravo Studio Gang!

Whoa.
This type of development is what should be built around Yonge + St. Clair. And a design with some creativity!

Do we know whether these are sales or rentals?

This is amazing, right near a transport node. Absolutely love it. The push back will be intense, demoralizing, and reflexive.

Absolute stunner... the layers lifting "up" (reminds me of some lovely church towers around the world-even Hamilton). Hope we get a taller version downtown (near CIBC - nice modern echo). Arms wide open to Slate and Studio gang.

Holy crap! It is a game changer for Toronto architecture. Iconic tower, but still manages to be respectful and human-scaled at ground level.

Outstanding! Original, attractive, wonderfully scaled at ground level, achieving so many different positives for the community from enlarged park space, to a reduced number of parking garage entrances.
I have nothing negative and everything positive to say about this!
Wonderful job and kudos both to the architects and to the property owner for ambition and thoughtfulness!
May we please see more of this in Toronto.
May other developers please take notes!

Hmm? looks taller from those renderings...i guess it's because everything around there is under 100m

When I saw the first render, my initial thought was this was just someones idea of an aspirational or "wish list" structure. To think that this project has a good chance of being built in TO is really exciting. It looks cutting edge, contemporary, and makes a statement that this city is ready to boldly enter the 21st century!

So excited to have a Studio Gang in Toronto! Let's hope this is all approved quickly.

How to put Yonge & St. Clair on the map: a building design that can become an icon. Love the ground level too and pretty much everything about this.
