Toronto 2189 Lake Shore West | 195.97m | 59s | Marlin Spring | Wallman Architects

[Towered]

Wallman hasn't impressed for quite a while. This is no exception.

You just made me think of that as new standard slogan for all mediocre development.

"We're better than a gas station!"

Reminds me of The Taylor's original sales slogan: "We're near a gas station".

I mean it's ok. For a box with wrapped balconies, I guess. It won't be out of place not that that's a compliment

All I can think of is this scene from Ghostbusters:

"Uh, a couple of wavy lines?"

If you scroll up and down quickly on your computer, the pattern wiggles like a snake. Cool, I guess.

Soon we'll have all the stones from The Fifth Element in HBS

 

[Strange Advance]

Is it waving or drowning?

 

[Jonathan Carruthers]

In honour of their rapid decline, Wallman presents......."Le Skid Mark," much to the dismay of Toronto's waterfront. Unless the materials are top notch this could really look tacky.

As M1 & 2 have proven, one could shift the floor plates in conjunction with the waves for a far more dramatic effect...

...but in the end, it's a glass box with sqiggly lines impressed upon the wrap arounds. Done before. And worn the T-shirt. /sigh

Right but here's an idea for you. Why shift floorplates when you could just make a square box..? Right, see the genius all the sudden!?

...and that's why we got those squiggly lines instead. /sigh

Taken today, this tower would appear in view beside Eau de Soleil, with clearly visible squiggly lines helpfully reminding observers who may have forgotten, that the lake is right there:

No distant buildings in this pic, but I love the view from that bridge too…
