I guess we at the UT Forums will know it's you if we see a strange man hugging that corner...

...others though might be persuading their children to move along with a "There's nothing to see here!" advice in rapid retreat. >.<

woonerfy/pedestrian treatment of this corner at street level could promote more spontaneous hugging activities..

It's funny you say that lol! The downtown districts needs more brick and stone work to their new building facades. Even if it only on the podium to balance with the glass ones being built.

We need much more brick to balance all the glass.

That 6 floor stone and red brick section on the west side counts as historical recreation. Many argue that historical recreation is destined to look cheap and tacky but it just isn't so. It's easy to get wrong but if one pays attention to proportion, detail, and quality materials there's a good chance you'll end up with something beautiful and successful.

I like the podium treatment shown here in ProjectEnd's photo. Somebody's at least making a bit of an effort to blend in with the historical context of the neighbourhood.

This could end up the best new building in the area

I'll go as far as saying this is already better thean King Blue, Bisha, and Nobu. And the funny thing is, it was those aforementioned 3 that everyone thought would look pretty damn good at one point or another...until they didnt.

Not to say that this wont look good, because it's looking very sharp at the points where CentreCourt easily couldve cheaped out on.

Welp...if what the start of the window wall on the tower itself is hinting at, it's so far looks to be above par of what we're "used" to seeing down in these parts.

Best looking heritage warehouse in the country (circa 2022/3)... imo.
