One of our favourite projects is coming close to completion. Located at Jarvis and Charles, X the Condominium soars 44 storeys above the city. Developed by Great Gulf Homes it was designed by architectsAlliance. The design takes its cue from Mies van der Rohe's TD Centre, a complex we very much admire. We especially like the inset balconies and the colour splashes. Now the big question - will the rooftop mechanical be covered completely like the TD Centre or left exposed as it is right now? Fingers crossed that it is completely covered.

The rooftop as it should look like if following the TD Centre's lead.
