The project is quite timid in design. My pics didn't turn out great, but the basic idea is that the building will have an atrium facing the harbour, with two midium sized buildings (looked like 6-8 floors on both sides, and a taller, 10 floor or so tall wing facing north to a lane that will be parallel with Queen's Quay.
A positive aspect is that this will be a LEED-Gold building, including energy efficiency, green roofs and an interior greenwall.
Public space will be on the slip and harbour sides, greenery and hard surface. A "glow in the dark" tower (in Diamond's words) is proposed on the west side, almost as a view terminus
they are still very tight lipped about the tenant, except that it will be "knowledge" workers, young people. The lead tenant will have 1100 workers - will not use all the space. Some room for retail, including ground floor undetermined space and a cafe.
Clues abound that this will be Globemedia. Public interaction with the atrium and south side, but Diamond and TEDCO refused any further comment on that. It is a publicly traded company - the Board of Directors still has to approve, we were told, before the tenant will be made public. Someone asked about where the jobs will come from - Mississauga? The reply was "all over", several locations. Globemedia, of course, has several sites such at the Globe and Mail on Front and CFTO Agincourt.
Construction is supposed to start as soon as July.
