CN Tower expansion: There will be retail/restaurant space added along the West wall abutting the SkyDome stairs.

Do any renders exist for the new CN expansion? I couldn't find anything in the dataBase or on a quick look through this thread.
I'm pretty sure I can picture it now though... Tacky glass box with nice big industrial AC units on the roof which will add a great visual aesthetic for those looking down through the glass floor.

No renders yet. It's part of a phase 2 of the development that includes an expansion on the aquarium. If it happens, it won't be any time soon. I wouldn't mind glass boxes, if everything, including the ceilings were glass. Imagine restaurants lining the CN Tower plaza where you can look up and see the tower. From the CN Tower glass floor, you'd see these glimmering glass structures below.

Still not loving this one. I can't help but think it'll feel a little too...

Or maybe even kitsch?

Good point - it's an insidiously crafty amalgam!

Big Daddy has coined a new word. Widdlebittykitty and savevp have provided a direction for usage.

Please use and spread.

Thanks drum118 for the update!

Are those pipes for the aquarium? There are so many! Makes sense I guess.

Geeze, now I'm really starting to think this could actually be on Par with the Georgia Aquarium o.o
