The one high quality rendering is still from quite a ways out, and the design feels preliminary to me.

Thumbs down!
Weird terracing / massing at the crown? Unsettling!
White precast? With a formliner? Good grief
Blue tile? For the waterfront? Groundbreaking
Keep it simple, and add some warmth to the material palette.
I'm assuming this is very early days and Arkfield will need to partner w another developer to actually build this, should they ever choose to do so. Hopefully as this moves through the meat machine it will get better.
I think there should be layers built from the water? Let’s say 20-30 floors along Queens Quay, 40-50 north of Gardiner, 60-70 along Front. Or else in the future there will be a wall of 50-floor buildings along Queens Quay.Yeah and the buildings just to the North are ~50 floors...
Are you suggesting that no building is allowed to be taller than its neighbour?

It would be nice if Toronto was more like Barcelona. I'd trade every tall tower in the city if it meant we could have superblocks spanning the west end from Spadina to High Park.Barcelona?
