The surgical removal of the back of that building makes me sad, I thought more of the warehouse was being saved than this. This is still a great project though and I would like to see more like it.
The builders of these warehouses would probably be shocked at the expense that contemporary Torontonian builders are budgeting for preservation: these are warehouses after all, and although lovely in our eyes, probably never envisioned as enduring the ages. The demolition of the warehouses in the Queen West-Sudbury triangle made me a bit sad (loss of all that context, railways tracks and all), but as they were steel-post-and-beam they were also never intended as edifice.
