hmm not to ruin the mood but for 36 years ... that's a lot of condo construction ... and very very little office construction ... nothing to be very proud of ...

What are you talking about? Almost everything that was developed between those two photos is office space... except for City Place off in the distance.

Well your right from 36 years ago to 1980s there was quite a bit ... but for the last 20 years there's been very little - compared to many other North American cities that is! (not *many* but compared to some ...)

TrumpToronto - thanks for the great shots! The new skin on FCP will make it as reflective as some of the other towers in the core.

Was the old Toronto Star building visible in that shot? Can't seem to find it.

That is mid-74, it was torn down by then. (The large empty lot in the shadow of TD Centre)
whatever

Those hotel rooms look palatial compared to anything I've ever stayed in

If the non-existence of the CN Tower even foundationally (unless at the top edge), and possibly the third TD Tower is any evidence, it might be a year or so earlier, maybe more (Torstar was torn down in 1972)

Residential development shouldn't be scorned just because you think we need more office development. Moving people downtown makes for a more vibrant, dynamic city centre where people can work, live and play. It's also a sustainable way for a city to grow (public transit criticisms aside, in this case).
It's definitely good to strike a balance between office and residential, and I think we've done that in the last decade or two with the condo developments you're referring to.
