That's one big safe/panic room.

That north façade of precast panels with punched window openings is refreshing. Too bad we don't see more of this.

Agreed - it looks great. Nice bold sculptural form to it. Although it looks like it belongs to a different building at the moment. Hopefully it becomes better integrated as construction proceeds.

I noticed the other morning, there's some colour on Quartz as well – blue spandrel on the canoe-facing side.

Oh no...what is that...colour!!! Surely we will have people showing up and protesting this!
They will be shouting: "No way! Keep It Grey! Colour's not the Toronto way!"
On a more serious note, I like it.
 
Awesome!

I can see it out my window and the colours look good, even on a miserable day like today
