I stumbled across this thread by accident but I gotta say I love the look of this project. Not only is there colour (the importance of which cannot be understated) There seems to be an emphasis on making an actual livable community here rather than simply plopping a couple towers down in a...

This went from promising to seen that before but it’s still fine to what the absolute heck.

Yup. These buildings look ok from afar but god forbid you get anywhere close to this mess LOL

Overall I really like this project but I have a few small gripes. First off, glass at street level is just so overdone to me. In some contexts it’s ok, but here I really just wish they continued the vertical columns all the way to the street level. It would just feel so much more natural and...

I’m less worried about the street level now with how good the cladding looks for phase two. Hopefully when this is all finished the podium will come together nicely. The goal with development of this scale should be to create new public spaces at ground level and that’s something sugar warf...

Am I the only one majorly underwhelmed by the street level integration here?

All I can say is yikes.

Bricks, stone. Lots of options under the umbrella of just those two materials.

I’ll admit I did prefer the previous version of this tower but I like this version as well. That said, I completely agree with you. Who decides what today’s architectural style is that everyone has to stick to? If someone wanted to design a building with attention to detail and care and it was...

Our stocks are running ridiculously low. It’s one thing China is keeping a very close eye on We are already having difficulty supplying Ukraine with what they need and this is a further wrinkle. I saw today that it will take till the end of 2025 for US to ramp up to 100,000 shells a month...

No. Not even remotely a possibility. Just flat out not gonna happen.

The reported death toll is already past 300. With nearly 2000 injured. Israel has now formally admitted at least one senior commander was killed and revised their claim about how many militants crossed the border now confirming that it was more than 1000. Pearl harbour may be a bit of a...

Hamas wants hezbollah involved

I don’t suggest going to seek out these videos, but from what I’ve seen/heard the death toll is wayyy higher. IDF has now admitted that some senior commanders were killed. Multiple military bases were overrun and it seems like everyone in them was slaughtered before the even left their...

Interesting. Thx for this. That’s a significant adjustment from the previous plan, I was unaware they had shifted the plan to Ottawa street. I think Victoria St would still be better but one perk of this I suppose is direct transit access to the Aud.

I’m pissed at India but cutting off diplomatic relations is not constructive (at this point). Canada does need to take retaliatory measures though. I never was a big Trudeau fan but I’ve always stood behind him in saying he’s been fine. Boring at worst. These past few weeks have been a...

If we’re being realistic here, phase 2 is dead in the water. It will never happen and it’s a damn shame. It’s also a shame that the route and speed of transportation was never the priority of either phase. I highly doubt we’ll ever see anything along Ottawa. Even the Ottawa street bridge over...

Yup I drive by here regularly and no signs of life. It’s quite disappointing.

This isn’t the footprint for both towers is it?

The cheapening strikes again.
