Feels like the mouth could have been resolved a bit better. It's nice to break up the form but is a little lacklustre. Almost wonder if an inset floor all the way around would have resulted in a better outcome...overall great looking office tower though!

Agreed.
Given the boldness/thickness of the sweeping panels, the rim of the mouth seems a bit understated.
It could be that the inset balcony area will be brightly lit at night.
 
Should have used black glass or something contrasty on the inside of the hangars. Or have a deeper cut, making for a more outdoorsy space at those levels.
Plus disco balls, three per inlet.

If you can dream it, somebody stupid has done it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uvula_piercing

I can see it now, the UT Disco Ball Uvula Challenge on TikTok.

I’ll be sad to see the Richmond street Scotia Cineplex go in a year or three, I have a ton of great memories of that theatre, but from this angle, you can really see that corner crying out to be redeveloped. It looks so squat and sad.
