Don't like the design of the tower at all, but what I do like is that the podium seems mostly to stay out of the way of the existing bank buildings. I think that's the sensible way to go. On the one hand, the style of these buildings could not be incorporated into the tower in any appropriate way and, on the other hand, the huge scale of the tower threatens to overwhelm the bank buildings into insignificance. So, if a giant tower really must go here, keeping the whole works at a respectable distance in the background is a good idea.
Having said that, the tower proposal looks like a giant magnification of some consumer tech product that was considered "cutting edge" in 1976.
And, further to that, the whole project is a disappointment. 197 and 201 Yonge have so much more potential as buildings in their own right. To consign them to the ignominious fate of mere appendices to a condominium is akin to the solution of someone in "imagination jail" as Apple used to put it.
