I wonder if that building on the s/e corner of Richmond and John will go with the lot directly to the east of it.

It has to, eventually - a 2 storey building and massive surface parking lot in the heart of Toronto's hottest neighbourhood for high-rise development just doesn't make any sense. I'm surprised there wasn't already a proposal in the works years ago.

sadly picasso is blocked by the apartment slab on stephanie street when you look out of the gehry barnacle at the AGO, a shame given its name and unique design.
 
Maybe I'm getting old ... but I prefer hanging out in my studio to T-Bells these days.

Then I googled Pablo's works from 1915 and fittingly, they're very cubistic and would fit right in. I just wish that like the artist, the architects had used bolder colours--greens, blues and pinks. The white/grey/red is rather cbc....
