That's always what I think too. And render people are normally very attractive. And have coffee cups in their hands. And little dogs. And cell phones. Tea drinking, cat lovers shouldn't buy a condo I guess.

They also pay little or no attention to traffic when they are crossing the street -- usually with a phone in their hands as well. Where are the render-ambulance attendants that would surely be kept busy scraping render-people off the streets?

Why is the project called "The Well?" Unusual name.

FWIW, I like both this and The One, for different reasons.

Wellington Street.

There should be more Jays fans amongst the renderpeople.

And more dog shit. Definitely needs more dog shit.

Ahhh, Got it. A more successful play on the address than Yonge and Rich, IMO.

That's making me think, if this were at University Avenue instead of Spadina, it could be called "The Un-Well"

(jk of course. I love the proposal, actually)

There will be a station here in 7 years!

And hopefully another one in 17 years (for DRL).

This project, the Mirvish towers, The One and Honest Ed's feel like a glimpse into Toronto's future. Hopefully they all come to fruition and inspire many similar developments.

Agreed. Still holding my breath for something spectacular at 19 Duncan.

And what's with the public realm in renderworld? This is Toronto. The sidewalks should be really narrow, the street trees should be spindly and near-death, and there should be frontier-town wooden hydro poles festooned with overhead wires and garbage can-sized transformers.

LOL, I wonder why all the renders always fail to leave those out.

 

[Lenser]

Maybe because they're attempting to sell the dream?

 

[interchange42]

Dream about this, a bit of the new reality headed our way.

The more I look at the redesigned office tower, the more I think it is definitely one of the more creatively designed ones to be proposed recently.

In the British tradition of nicknaming landmark towers, I think the office tower should be henceforth known as "The Bookshelf"
