The Well is, essentially, outdoors - palm trees will certainly not survive and dead palm trees will simply be depressing :->

What about something like climbing ivy? Maybe with it growing on the concrete supports?

The laneway running between the atrium and Draper Street is coming along. Taken 24 December.

Finally got to visit The Well. I must say I was impressed, and my wife, who normally doesn't comment on architecture said, "It feels solid. Like something we'd see back in London [UK]". Praise indeed!

Similarly, my mom out in Victoria BC sent me a CBC article on The Well and was like "have you been here?" and told me she wants to check it out next time she's in TO. It's definitely getting attention from people who aren't in the architecture/development bubble!

It truly does ! My big fear though, will it actually be a success ? I'm not so sure about that yet. The good news being the built form is done regardless of the financial viability i.e. we win

Feels like a missed opportunity not to include a hotel in the complex (and a movie theatre but that horse was beaten to death long long ago)

I hear you but take heart! There is the building at the northeast corner (Stantec) that wasn't included in the development that could include on in the future as well as the imminent development of the northeast corner of Front and Spadina. And as far as viability goes I think that the real draw of this complex will be the food options, none of which has opened yet.

Makes me wonder how many retailers are kicking themselves for not signing a lease during COVID, I assume the retail makeup would’ve looked very different in another universe

Why ask? Just do it.

Why ask? Just do it.

The place is crawling with security guards, if you appeared and they did not allow dogs you would be 'stuck'. Always good to know what you may (or may not) do - even if you ignore it!
