This mixed use solution is the best idea I've heard for the Gardens since it closed. I certainly hope that a deal can be reached.

Calgary and Niagara Falls are examples of two more cities where tourists can look up at other buildings from the viewing decks of communications towers.

They should call the project "TranSpire! The Condo".

What an interesting article. The fact that Bazis is mothballing construction in their own country does not fill me with confidence for their foreign projects.

It sems to be a mistake of the author, who also stated that the theatre is 49 years old, and most likely confused the age and height numbers.

"Southtown" has finally sprouted! "The Dead Zone" is coming to life...

That has got to be some kind of record. Didn't they just break ground in December? How were they able to get to this point at twice to three times the speed of the average project?

I heard that we should be expecting a lovely Smarch groundbreaking. Another source (really reliable) has heard they've already scheduled a big announcement for the thirteenth hour of the thirteenth day of the thirteenth month. I can't wait!

Wow, that's quite the stump they're building there!;)

Is The Harry involved in this one? Cause I could swear that's the the old Downtown Plaza design recycled in Niagara.

"stump" "reminiscent of the "stump" that sat for a decade after the aborted Bay-Adelaide Centre became a victim of the recessionary 1990s." I don't think any of us could have predicted that MaRS 2 would become the first 'stump' of this boom. What, with the success of the first phase, the...

I completely agree. I in fact visited the WTC and toured the top viewing deck on August 11th 2001. I remember being extremely impressed by the scale and finish of the buildings and their place in the city. I was particularly shocked at the destruction, having just experienced all of the anti...

I think they were referred to as 'the boxes that the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building came in'.

I had a feeling that the developers of this tower would end up taking the base for granite!

It looks like an excellent piece. A great addition to the Fort York neighbourhood.

Simply fantastic shooting, Current. Thanks for your pics today.

As cool as the design for the base of this building was, does anyone think the "Artslab" scheme as it was proposed was actually a good idea? From what I recall, this jumbled, half baked proposal consisted of a restaurant that for some reason played multicultural TV shows, and a video game room...

Does anyone know why the blue titanium cladding has a crumpled tinfoil look to it? Will it be smoothed out, or is that how it is going to look?

Bay Adelaide stump 2? Return of the stump!

Exactly... A looming recession could definitely stall any project if the money dries up. As for Bazis, they are just one example I thought of... any developer could have such problems, as proven with Brookfield's Bay Adelaide.
