Toronto is getting a little crazy with the signs, or maybe we always were. Between this and CIBC Square's 4-6 signs per tower, it feels like corporate overkill.
That sign sticking out of the slope in the east roofline should not be approved.
More negativity! Come on guys, lets be optimistic, these are pretty basic drawings. I am going to look at the positive, it appears Cadillac Fairview has scored TD to be the lead tenant on this tower?. I had no idea TD was looking considering they already have the big black towers and the TD Canada Trust towers. But hey this is great news if indeed they are moving into this tower! I can't see this sign variance application being filed for unless it was pretty close to a sure thing.
With the Ontario Pension Plan already announced that they taking 300,000 sq ft of this tower, for TD to get naming rights Im guessing they took over 500,000k+ of space.
That sign sticking out of the slope in the east roofline should not be approved. That's ridiculous in the extreme, and the City should be categorical about ruining architectural lines for such things. Not sure I like any of those standing proud of the exterior wall instead of being integrated into it, but the east one is way offside.

BMO is building a very large office where sears used to be no ? That was over 500K of space if I recall ?
There has been quite a few movements in the past several years in banking. RBC opened the Waterpark Place tower, then the RBC Centre (both built in the past 10 years). Then Scotiabank announced they are taking space in Bay Adelaide North, CIBC obviously has CIBC Square under construction, now TD might be investing in 160 Front?
All we have left is BMO!
any renders or pictures of this new structure?346k for 3,500 employees, so not quite that large but still pretty significant.
