Toronto Burke Condominiums | 163.45m | 53s | Concert | Arcadis

It looks like a modernist concrete tower facadomized into the grey spandrel blob that is the true towers form. Very Toronto. Very demure.

It does look like it. lol

Sidewalk hoarding has come down. Meanwhile, a half-block south, construction is now above grade at The Bourne.

I know.... it's so 3rd world. Shameful.

I don't like exposed power lines, but hold the histronics. Here's a side street right next to Shunjuku:

Burke Condominiums in Toronto’s North St James Town approaches completion, with its crane now removed and cladding installed. https://urbantoronto.ca/news/2025/1...urke-condominiums-approaches-completion.59665

Ugh. Let’s hope this is the last of its kind here. Basic, grey, lazy, cheaper, overly spandrel rectangular edifice. It’s not hard in 2025 finding durable cladding materials to change up the finish, colour & design. If you’re doing ho-hum rectangular- don’t go grey. IBI /Arcadis.
