Can we please make them redo the design? Thanks
Well Lifetime is already deluded enough to think that this screams "opulence" and "modernity", with "subtle nods to regal sophistication" and "Bond-esque glamor", oh and dont forget "a design the city would be proud of."

So seeing as that's what world they're living in, 0 percent chance they would ever give thought to redesigning their "architectural mastery" as they so described themselves if they even had the chance.
 
...so they rather be shaken but not stirred?

Another big congrats to the Federal government on selling this piece of land with no conditions on anything.

What housing crisis? Cleary everything is A ok according to the government.

Lets remember that the developer wanted to build 2 towers with 1,482 homes and 110 affordable rental which the city rejected because of shadows. the 1 tower proposal (before the latest revision) dropped the unit count to 997 and 79 affordable rentals. It wasn't the federal government or the developer than didn't want more affordable housing here it was the city.
All of this is explained in the video below

No matter how many condos they build, Toronto will always have the most barren waterfronts and streetscape experiences of all. It's magical.
