It's a haven for drugs and crime. Every second weekend you hear of shootings, stabbings, fights etc... That's not good for this fast developing area. It'll be out of there soon.

Redpath works where it is, plain and simple. If it eventually goes, great, if it doesn't, oh well. Ever wondered why it is called SUGAR beach? Ha! Anyone who says that it HAS to go does not know the area at all. It's fine, queens quay is developing well and given time will be a great place to...

Everyone is entitled to opinion. Your opinion sucks. That's my opinion.

Lol well the thing is everybody, condo boards have relief funds worth 10s if not 100s of millions of dollars these days, so really, if something does "fail" in the future, they'll be able to afford to repair or replace whatever has failed. I'd really like for someone to calculate the total...

Wrong, it is free-standing. It sits on its own, massive footing, constructed especially for supporting the crane itself. Not only that but the entire height of the crane will be made-up by tower crane sections. Other cranes climb up the tower and are supported by the tower. Just because it is...

Lol you all need to look at the rendering to see that the cladding is a silver-blue. This negative "hype" is too much now and nobody has even seen it on the building.

agree, at street level it's quite nice, does compliment the market well...the yawn is for the incredibly slow pace of construction, the podium has been complete for quite some time but who knows when the tower will begin to rise. On another note related to Pier 27...looks like we have the first...

that's a yawner lol

You english don't seem to make much sense in this forum

And who the F are you? The international authority on architecture? What are your credentials? How can you assume that the developer is "skimping out"? Have you visited the site? That should change your mind. And are the projects finished yet? No, so let's just pocket our ignorant, snide remarks.

I meant limestone mounted on precast panels.

Yup, looks like limestone precast.

I love the smell of Redpath on days the wind comes rolling in from the lake. The only thing obnoxious about Redpath is that damn mural of whales!!

The CN tower already looks like a dragon ball z show, you guys want to light the top off this bad boy then ring pink LEDs down to the 30th and then alternate between baby blue and pink down to ground? Can't see anything too dramatic here, the architecture speaks for itself, this isn't one of...

Oh this must be a joke. Given the history of this board, you better clear this statement up before the forum goes haywire...

It's plain and simple, the city wants a tall beefy skyline (vertical density), and they're getting it. I think the definition of what a vista actually is has in relation to the debate been lost. Are we speaking on behalf of the architectural vista of a building's exterior? Or the vista...

It's above ground.

What is "iconic" architecture in the first place? And why is the building judged off renderings? What is P&S suburban crap? What makes this "P&S suburban crap"? If you're going to make bold comments, back 'em up! Provide some context please.

What, all of a sudden Cityzen/Fernbrook builds Absolute, Yansong Ma is a saviour and his architecture is REQUIRED everywhere?!?! How do you know what they spent on designing the building? Stupid comments.

LOL, those are very normal, typical, everyday issues with condo-living.
