No, just a beautiful detail that I'm very glad they're following through on:

Interesting to see a steel detail like that on a building with a concrete structure. Looks like they'll be casting everything above the joint in concrete too. Visually, it's as if the entire concrete structure bears on this one steel pinned connection. Really interesting way to define the main entrance as a literal focal point for the building.

Here are some new renderings, as well as some older ones, in larger format:

I love how they’re not cutting corners. This picture is facing south, into the alleyway of the building next door. They could have easily cheapened out on that facade.

Residents of the Brant Park that face into it will be somewhat mollified by that: the two buildings are very close. Thank goodness they'll have something relatively handsome to look at.

I mean, they really have nothing to complain about. They purchased a unit facing into a lot waiting to be redeveloped. It was only a matter of time before their clear view was blocked.

I say this as someone who’s about to lose my lake view when The Well and then KING are built. Views are never guaranteed in a growing city.

Do we have any details on the hotel bar? The Ace Hotel will be across the street from me and I’d love to have a cool new place to hang out and do some work for an hour and then stick around for a drink and live music. I haven’t seen any interior renderings.
