Toronto CIBC SQUARE | 241.39m | 50s | Hines | WilkinsonEyre

[mburrrrr]

Core jump this morning. 8 days from Nov 29 and 18 Days to Christmas.
Winter concrete change 4-5 weeks ago?

The podium and ground level is finishing up. Coming soon some steel and a new bridge over Yonge.
Can I put a PATH sign up on our building at 25 The Esplanade just like Sugar Wharf did? Okay we are 50m and 1+ years away from the PATH. What are they 500m and 5+ years away from the PATH?

Edit - Pictures below from Nov 30.

Track 3 the old short cut to the sky walk. I miss that route.

From track 4

From track 3 looking north over the new Bay St bridge.

From the skywalk. Is it still called skywalk or is it Rogers Walk or Rogers Centre Way or The Way to Rogers Centre (& MTCC)

Is it just me or did anyone else think that was a real tree for the longest time (only ever saw it from a distance)

From a dry Love Park

From our other favorite dry park. Almost dry January/February, Maybe that’s a sign.

Edit added one from Nov 5 - got stuck in a thumbnail.

That should clean up this post.

Oh, boy! Photos of this fountain will be even nicer when this is completed in the background.

I went back to the 1 Front thread and never noticed they have renders from this view showing exactly how it will block CIBC Square:

I don’t like it either, and I know we can’t stop building things because of the views they ruin. That being said, there are far more iconic views of a certain tower in the city that have been ruined by the likes of CIBC Square and 160 Front, but at least those are nice towers. They were designed to stand out whereas these towers really aren’t designed in any way that meaningfully considers the architecture of the buildings around them. This view shows that pretty well. It looks like a shittier Royal Bank Plaza but it's right next to Royal Bank Plaza.

Let keep our fingers crossed this never happens.
