ratoronto, that is an INCREDIBLE view. You should take a panorama!
I agree, I'd love to see a panorama of your view as well.

- Where it's urban. And dense.
I was admiring this walking east on Dundas east of Spadina the other day. It looks really, really good from that direction. It's what 300 Front so miserably failed to achieve.

Also agree it looks quite nice, especially from the University ave vantage point.

Taken from Toronto General 12th floor I presume? I am often there as well, if that's the floor you're on there. I know that view and window well.

I don't really like the North side of this building. It seems really dead when walking south on University av. Is there a reason why theres no windows on that side?

A taller building going up and blocking the view as well very little light getting in.

Yes the 12th. Was in for bloodwork and picked up immunosuppressants.

I like this building because it's amusing, I smile every time I see it.
The base could not be called Facadism because it doesn't resemble the original RCMI building. It's basically a towntown glass tower plunked on top of a replica of a Forest Hill neo-classical monster home.
Only in Toronto...

I think some of it has to do with the structure of the building (being so thin) that there is a concrete wall instead of windows, but as drum118 said, some of it is cause 488 University going up nearby, but at the same time, there's still plenty of breathing room between the two towers for decent north views. There's a sizeable building in between them.
I dislike the North Side as well. I wish they slanted the fin at the top and got rid of the checkered spandrel pattern.
