It's true, none of the marketing renderings have the corner pillars, but you can clearly see them in the architectural plans. Someone pointed this out in this forum earlier. Buyers of a 6 figure+ condo should be aware of that. Marketing renders are just that, marketing. In the long run bait and...

As great, and as appreciated as they are, pictures don't do this justice. Passed by the other day, and it's truly magnificent in person. Only disappointment is that it's in two phases, so the wait continues! 😭

At least put a billboard or two to cover up that bathroom wall! :mad:

I find this subterranean space a little gloomy for a dining experience. It's architecturally stunning, but it does evoke a brutalist space reminiscent of a certain university library that brings back horrific memories of final exams and all nighters. Maybe that's just me though. I also trust Alo...

I don't think floor to ceiling windows and some minor perforated fins are really that claustrophobia inducing. The upper floors here are being used by Toronto Court Services’ court rooms (for offences under the Provincial Offences Act) and administrative offices. In which case I suspect some...

Remenyi music store has shut down, making way for this development. Source:

We need more and more of this thinking along Yonge to clean up that stretch without losing much of its spirit. Especially now, that some of the bigger towers between College and Wellesley are finished and you no longer have larges swaths of construction scaffolding. Similar to this reno I passed...

First time seeing the corner column in the back- maybe they'll be extending the corners soon!

Very excited to see the white fins continue to make their way up the tower. 😁 Hopefully with the same reflective glass as the base!

Not to jump too far off topic but Avenue Road sidewalks have always been an issue especially from Bloor to St Clair. There's a group working widening the sidewalks, and the city is conducting a study on the matter. https://avenueroadsafetycoalition.ca/make-avenue-road-safer-in-2022/#more-1423

ummm..... what is it? :confused:

Here it is. It was a quick snap from the car, but yes, the crane is there!

The problem here is execution: It looks so dated, it's even shocking that the developer wants their name associated with it. You really cannot differentiate this from any building built in the late 1990s/early 2000s, and even by that era's standards, this is just bad. Yes not every building...

Bay street was partially closed earlier in the week for the installation as I walked by, most of the truss up by then. Will get a picture next time in the neighbourhood.

Really looking forward to seeing the cladding on this one- will be a real make it or break it moment.

There seems to be fire indeed:

Rarely do I find myself agreeing with local councillors panicking about density, however they do have a point in this case. It literally offers nothing in return to the neighbourhood. Not even pleasing design, or added retail. We've seen this play out already in the neighbourhood in the -yet...

I agree. I'm always a proponent of new parks (and parkettes)- anywhere. But, it does make a huge difference where these parks are located. Even on a bigger scale, Queen's Park is great example. As amazing as the park is, being surrounded by what is essentially a city highway is extremely...
