Toronto Sugar Wharf Condominiums (Phase 1) | 231m | 70s | Menkes | a—A

The pattern kinda makes me think this building got 300 kills with the FAMAS in Call of Duty.

On that note, I envy how London has fun names for their architectural oddities (The Shard, Gherkin, Walkie Talkie etc).

Petition to name this one "The Cows"

The dark balcony cladding looks good. Kinda wish they had used just that.

The pattern is really growing on me. I could see this being a fan favourite

in my opinion, we've really had to lower our expectation about what to get excited about in new builds. There are a few exceptions, but balcony glass patterns is the low budget cheapskate approach, and most of these realized buildings look much worse than the renders. For new condos selling for $1600+ per sq foot, don't we deserve better? Are there no local developers who want to make Toronto look amazing architecturally?

Agreed. Very lazy attempt to make the building look interesting.

Agreed, but it's done well with solid materials. Unlike the building directly to the east.

I like how this one is turning out.

They're definitely milking buyers dry with these prices nowadays.

And they'll keep on doing it 'till the cows come home.
