Subway talk: off topic, unless it's made to dovetail into Mirvish-Gehry somehow.
Mirvish neither has the experience or funds to pull it off even if his intentions are sincere. I'm not convinced on that either based on his track record.
I seriously doubt if approved, the area would have a slew of 288 meter proposals.
We have a planning dept. lead by a small town transplant (Peterborough) so as expected we get a small town approach to planning. The DRP is stuck in a conformist rut, ensuring Toronto continues to churn out uninspired architectural dreck. This is a game changer for the city, but Toronto has consistently failed to think big, and I fear it will happen again with this project.
These city staffers are more a liability than an asset. It begs the question, how does one go about getting these people replaced? Enough!
