Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

^ No! As it's happening! This is a historic day...
 
Re: W: doubt it

They are saving some of the blue hoarding for the city of Toronto museum, right?
 
Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

I was first on the scene when it first popped over the hoarding. Remember this:

I won't be there on the 16th though.
 
Re: W: doubt it

I remember.. thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I also remember how something so little as seeing a man with a shovel on the grounds prompted a 20 page Metropolis discussion.. lol
 
Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

Didn't I read somewhere that L'Oreal is trying to block the destruction of the hoarding by seeking historic designation?

Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

Overall, I like it so far. Shoot me.

Those sign backings look like some very crude cartoon of Otto Wagner

Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

The Vic St. treatment is perhaps one of the very worst things I've seen go up in Toronto in the last decade. I actually can't think of anything worse.
 
Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

I want to say yet again that the Victoria St. side is a monstrosity. I feel sorry for all those Ryerson students.
 
Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

I actually think that the Victoria St. side, with its massive massing, is quite o.k., although we will need to wait for the finished product to know for sure...
 
Re: Metropolis being a monstrosity

doesn't seem to be much more shadows than from a medium-sized office building...overall, not too shabby looking, the glass is awesome!
 
Re: udpates on CTV and Jack Astor's?

Will the massive hole revealing the parking garage remain as a massive hole?
 
Re: Metropolis being a monstrosity

Is the Victoria side really any worse than what was there before?
