Have to say this one of the better buildings I have seen in some time as well how long since I last shot it like 9 months.

I mean it's possibly TFs best work.. but not one of the better buildings to go up recently by a long mile. Look at what Menkes did with aA two blocks away.

It is better than I expected it to be. Especially the lower podium levels by the looks of it.
 
No worse than Whitehaus at Yonge and Eglinton and this ain't Yonge and Eglinton so altogether not terrible.

Not that often we disagree on such matters; but here we part ways.

1) Whitehaus IS terrible. Being better than that, to the extent its true is not braggable.

2) This is awful. Bad design, worse finishing.

Yuck!

I'd take some of TF's more Disney-fied plaza offerings over this. (well minus all the surface parking).
 
It's the "townhouse" fronts that sell it for me. They're nicely done. The rest is crap but not egregiously so given the area.
 
I like the idea of a tall building on this site creating a view terminus up the street but what we got is almost not worth it. The only thing I’ll give this development is that there’s not crazy spandrel patterns. It’s fairly uniform, still bad but organized bad
 
This is one of the worst new towers in the city but at street level, it is one of the better ones. First of all, thankfully, this tower does not have the generic, ubiquitous wall of glass and it actually has some contrasting materials to clearly separate the storefronts and entrances. The use of red brick and canopies make this much nicer than expected. I wish there wasn't so much ugly grey above but at street level, so far, I'm not seeing much grey and my eyes will be thankful for that, as Jarvis/Dundas is already a grey spandrel assault from all directions.
