It looks a lot like 60's East German / Kremlin construction. Grey and boring. Maybe the idea is to lull the out of country athletes into a boring stupor, so our own will be able to best them and win all the gold.
Only in Toronto will you see an entire community built out of grey and black. Massive letdown. I don't even understand how this is allowed.
You really have to wait until it's finished before judging. It will have trees, art, people and stores. Whether this will be enough to make it feel like a 'neighbourhood' I do not know but I live in hope.The place looks like a business park. Untamed modernism! It works much better when blended into older neighbourhoods/streetscapes.
