Ok. I was a little disappointed that Brock hasn’t done something downtown in Hamilton. Would create a lot of synergy.

Only thing Brock had was the teachers college in the east end close to where I live.

Visited the mainfloor of this McMaster Graduate Student Residence building today during the ULI Toronto "Housing in the Hammer" tour...

I see they haven't fixed the blue square of something sticking out on the ground floor!

that concrete job between the stairs and the "1" looks terrible - looks very sloppy

Some trees installed. I have to assume the trees along King St won't be installed until after LRT is complete.

Apparently this building is also being used to house Undergrads at the moment.

Why
It already has a defined top point or "crown" if you will... At least from this angle

Probably as the cladding is giving art-deco vibes, the crown just looks like a stump. There's no finishing cap detail, it just ends.

I'm greedy, just bring on the second phase already, and this block can be complete!

Parking lot being repaved behind the residence, beautiful finishing touches around the hydro transformer with asphalt...

That parking garage always feels like it's gonna collapse in on itself with the flimsy concrete triangles.. I get it'll sorta be swallowed into the building next door but still.
