It's like they stuck the penthouse of another building on top of these towers. It just doesn't make any aesthetic sense at all.

The podiums are well done and the crowns are a little different than the surrounding buildings. It works for me.

I’m not saying I like them, but I do like them MORE than many other city place buildings.

Take that back - this building doesn't deserve to even be mentioned in the same sentence as the TD Towers.

they had some leftover glass panels from the podium so they put them up on the mechanical portion.

Maybe we should take advantage of Concord plastering their marketing over this tower to let them know the quality of trash they inflicted upon us here?

They should have done just the restoration without the towers

Sadly that wasn't on the menu.
On another note - those fake street level windows look rather unfortunate - probably even after the glazing goes up. Bit of a wasted opportunity.

First of the two residential tower cranes is coming down - the cable has been de-strung and its counterweights removed.
Please do not shoot the messenger - I know this building is not popular, I am just reporting on status and progress, not commenting on its esthetic qualities - or in particular, the lack thereof.

One of the most dull and uninspiring vistas in all of Toronto. I wouldn't be surprised if people living in that neighborhood got depressed just by looking at their surroundings on a gloomy day like that.
