SOM steals BCE?

[adma]

Cute. Hey, any press for Toronto's landmarks is welcome...

I agree with one of the replies... How does this rendering of Moynihan Station resemble the BCE Galleria?

It actually reminds me more of the Scarborough Town Centre food court.

BCE is not the first or only glass galleria in the world. The comparrison is silly.

SOM designed BCE Place, sans Galleria.

Who added the Galleria?

 

[allabootmatt]

Calatrava.

 

[Ed007Toronto]

I know Caltrava designed it but if SOM didn't include it in their design someone else must have brought it into the master plan.

The design looks more like the roof of Vinoly's Kimmel Centre than BCE, with the organic steel elements.

Beautiful either way. I don't find it looks like the BCE either, no white arches.
