The building really is terrible--one of the worst in a neighborhood of real stinkers. Especially dispiriting is that it comes from the builder of One Bloor and Monde. How the hell did they drop the ball so badly on this one? Makes me even less hopeful over the prospects of the Gehry towers.

I guess they needed something to practice on in making crimped materials for the said Gehry towers... /sigh

But for the oil canning, this is actually a pretty handsome building.

This is why I find this project frustrating.

I find the tower glazing cheap looking and the base to be awkward.

Is it me, or are the oil canning dings are looking less noticeable now?

^^^ The oil-canning is most noticeable in early-morning and late-afternoon sun. The canning's still there.
