Victoria123 on SSC found this article on The One. From the article:
"We wanted this to be the Rockefeller Center or the Chrysler Building or the Empire State Building of Toronto."
"The contemporary glass and steel template for highrises has become the norm for virtually every developer in the city. While eye-catching, that type of design also carries a risk: They may be trendy and fashionable, but fashion becomes outdated, goes out of style, and trends fade. Mizrahi isn't in the fashion game. He wants timeless."
"We want to build something you would see on Fifth Avenue, that you would see on Avenue Montaigne in Paris, something you would see in London in Knightsbridge."
"The One will feature amenities such as a rooftop terrace, underground parking for residents, and the public, doormen, and valet service, gardens, pools, restaurants, and be connected to an underground PATH network for easy access to the subway"
