If it weren't for the fact that the Instagram rendering is in this thread, I would have easily assumed that it's an ad for a luxury car rather than for the building.100 for the Pista. 10 for the building.
This is the ugliest project, I think, in the City. The renderings look nothing like the final product, and I cannot imagine the condo board will not be full-on lawsuit as soon as it's registered.
Full glazing at-grade (not 50% spandrel), bronze (not backpainted brown), gold, not brass window wall, no seems on the pre-cast banding, glazed building corners, not massive pre-cast columns.
Avenue 151 - Luxury Yorkville Condos
151 Avenue Road is no cookie-cutter condo. It’s a concept that transforms the neighbourhood while achieving an appealing synchronicity with its surroundings.avenue151yorkville.com
I love the rich bronze finish on the first few floors of this facade as you can see in the photos up above !
No wonder why it looks more like a car ad than a building ad.Ayah --- you need to see this monstrosity in person. It isn't rich bronze - that's an instagram filter - it's flat brown powder-coated paint like a UPS uniform. The "gold" above is a bit better, but it is paint, not a nice anodized mullion and it does not read as gold - it reads as yellow.
