    Toronto 80 Bloor Street West | 263.4m | 78s | Krugarand | Arcadis

    Looks like they are trying to preserve just Bloor St facade here (for whatever reason?!). The rest of the building is swallowed.

    Toronto 50 Scollard | 147.62m | 41s | Lanterra | Foster + Partners

    Condo designed by Foster + Partners... what a bunch of losers! :)

    Toronto Ontario Place | ?m | ?s | Infrastructure ON

    Build two deck parking u-ground, develop surface area into something 'walkable'.. problem solved! :))

    Toronto 483 Bay | 226.63m | 69s | Northam | IBI Group

    Why? The colonnade offers great opportunity for double storey retail, or F&B. I think this project might change this stretch of Bay extremely in a positive way.. if done right!

    Toronto 483 Bay | 226.63m | 69s | Northam | IBI Group

    looking at the plan, HT indicators do not add up. If it's ASL then the res. tower is only 80m over existing BTS? Elevations are showing something entirely different.

    Toronto Bathurst Quay Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | Kearns Mancini

    Elephant in this room stays invisible... :)
  7. cogito ergo

    Toronto Manulife Centre Podium and Streetscape Renewal | 9.75m | 2s | Manulife Real Estate | MdeAS Architects

    Eataly, I think, has MO that is more similar to MarchÉ MÖvenpick than Pusateri's, since a lot of square footage goes to sit-downs rather than retail, but again there is definitely some overlap in market targets..

    Toronto Yonge & Rich Condominiums | 156.35m | 46s | Great Gulf | a—A

    Mostly agree with this statement, however... artisanship and skill was always valued, never cheap. We have lost most artisans not because they were too expensive, but rather because market for their skill just vanished. Besides, sophistication inside doesn't preclude its presence on the outside...

    Toronto 1 Yorkville | 183.18m | 58s | Bazis | Rosario Varacalli

    just add a couple of "pencils" ... and voila.. :)

    Toronto 2150 Lake Shore | 215.75m | 67s | First Capital | Allies and Morrison

    ... and when you add an extension of Bloor west line to Sherway, it will create a nice new hub/gateway, linking Miss.& TO

    Toronto 2150 Lake Shore | 215.75m | 67s | First Capital | Allies and Morrison

    I know it was, (noticed smiley face?) nevertheless it is not a silly idea to have a link to Queensway in this location.. just crossing under tracks, not over..

    Toronto 2150 Lake Shore | 215.75m | 67s | First Capital | Allies and Morrison

    Nope, nothing existing crosses rail tracks in this location...

    Toronto 2150 Lake Shore | 215.75m | 67s | First Capital | Allies and Morrison

    ha, I want to see this connector from the Food Terminal, crossing over the rail tracks and then duck under Gardiner at the same time.. :) (last pic)

    Toronto Manulife Centre Podium and Streetscape Renewal | 9.75m | 2s | Manulife Real Estate | MdeAS Architects

    Not a place to argue on simple economics, apologies for this, promise it is my last post on the subject.. but when you jump from 'Ford bad' to some artificially imposed (by politicians of course) 'living wage' levels, to me just shows economic ignorance and acute political bias.. and yes, it...

    Toronto Manulife Centre Podium and Streetscape Renewal | 9.75m | 2s | Manulife Real Estate | MdeAS Architects

    I did not say it is.. I just accentuated possible other reason for 'kowtowing'.. my centrist sensibilities are sometimes triggered by these not-so-hidden far-left agendas, being displayed on this forum with the assumption that it is somehow 'universal' and shared by all..

    Toronto Yonge & Rich Condominiums | 156.35m | 46s | Great Gulf | a—A

    the last pic nicely illustrates the difference in the attention to detail past cornice work vs today.. I don't know how to call it... sad....

    Bloor and Prince Edward (?)

    Remington is also interested in acquiring of the rest of this block afaik.. so it seems (like maestro says) that soil remediation is starting..

    Toronto 320 Bay Modernization | ?m | 18s | Menkes | B+H

    B+H is moving their office in there, since current location is going to be under construction for a long time...
