This is not the current design.

To be clear, I meant Trump Toronto.

Deceptive Marketing to the end-purchasers. Most of the marketing materials are zoning renderings, not Site Plan-level. There are always clauses which suggest that the renderings are artist representations, but I am curious as to how far that could be stretched. Trump, for instance, was sued for...

Hopefully people start to realize Madison keeps doing this. And hopefully someone gets sued.

I can get behind this .... I just don't trust the City to actually do anything I guess!

I disagree (though I agree with 99% of your posts, as it would be) HOWEVER This area has a massive dearth of parkland, and the City has done absolutely jack with its funds except hoard them. It's more than enough space for a playground with some podium adjustments. The City could delete street...

Sapphire Blue would be amazing. This needs to transition between X condos and 88 --- like a dark to light.

Apparently based on today's story, they settled @ 56. https://urbantoronto.ca/news/2022/04/colliers-development-advisory-assists-landowners-through-development-process

I attended this as well and it included a few unique elements 1. People accusing Layton of misappropriating Section 37s 2. People accusing the developer of paying the engineers to fake reports 3. The head of the RA (I think) saying that the tower should by much taller but also saying the...

Oh yes - my bad. I meant slab edge detail. It looks like the balcony glass is inset into a curved slab edge.

Jeeeeeesus this is ugly on the inside. The kids rooms look absolutely terrifying and clearly designed by people without kids.

And yet the Neigborhood directly to the east is trying to squash the development which is already at a modest height for the node ...

@AlexBozikovic Curious your take on this particular one with the new government advisory panel. Do you think it will have teeth and will this still get whittled to 10 storeys? This is a poster child for neighborhoods being prioritized ...

But it is on at least two 50+ storey towers I am currently working on, especially for rebar.

That's true - but I imagine trades are renegotiating ...

I hadn't watched *that* closely, so thanks for that . Speed is still worrying, given the massive cost pressure in steel, in particular, past below-grade delays on this project, and high-leverage combined with interest rate pressures. Maybe it's because these are atypical floors?

I have been watching this and have never seen a construction site move more slowly. Does anyone know what is going on? Bit worried maybe the steel trades are walking off given inflationary pressures.
