Quite like like the massing of this one, and it's sensible form makes for an interesting contrast to the irregularity of the ROM crystal. I much prefer it to the Bedford building.

From Yesterday by me:

Those condo's over looking McDonald's are going to be rather dark when the 32 story Exhibit get's built.

They all will overlook McDonalds (and be rather dark in the future)! Only half and full floor units.

But all the uits have north and/or south exposures too.

Looks like 2 more floors to go.

Really glad these 2 towers were built. We have nice streetwall now . The height of museum house seems appropriate for the area. i like it.

I'm glad MuseumHouse was built. One Bedford? Not so much, unless they left the studio alone or actually did a good job at incorporating the entire facade.

at least it's situated further away from the museum/action. I'm fine with that type of building being across from a field.
I wonder when/how Exhibit will work here.

Page + Steele strike again, with their classic ham-fisted dark glazing/light banding combo. I can pick 'em out from a mile away. At least it's not as messy and over-styled as a lot of their other buildings though, I'm looking at you Pinnacle.

I propose a twitter type limit on the number of characters people can consume in their footer. Somewhere, God only knows where, a few granules of coal are being burnt to store these repetive bits on some server in the cloud. Seems wasteful - lets kill all these tags or whatever they are called.

"I was waiting on a moment, but the moment never came. All the billion other moments, were just slipping all away. I must have been tripping, we're just slipping all away. Just ego tripping."

Not nearly as wasteful as your post!
