They have removed most of the interior scaffolding at this point and are painting the cross supports white. Hard to see with the glare.

I love this project, thanks for the updates.

 

[Miscreant]

I like it too--I think dismissing it outright would be an exaggeration--but I'm not sure the actual addition on top is all it could be. The take home on this one will be open concourse with the amazing beams.

I would have preferred leaving the steel exposed but the white is fine as well. Noticed today that the first of the brise soleil are up on the west facade.

I believe these must be what project end is talking about. Didn\'t know what they were called. The reflections are cool. I was also hoping they\'d leave the braces unpainted, but still good.

Really like how the brise soliel is breaking up monotony of the facade.

Phase 2 revealed:

From Allied REIT's 2014 AGM.

Looks like about the same density, but they're moving further away from Queen to respect the HCD Guidelines.

The old version:

It looks fantastic, love how it continues the Queen st. streetwall.

Very much agreed. Dermot should have also pushed to clad / treat the elevator shaft on the north side in some similarly-creative manner...

 

[Midtown Urbanist]

I love phase two! Beautiful render!

 

[TheKingEast]

Looking good.

Anyone work in the area? The amount of development I've had to experience over the last 5 year is astounding. Good to see...dealing with the construction is a pain in the ass but it's worth it.
