Toronto Tango2 at Concord Park Place | ?m | 20s | Concord Adex | P + S / IBI

De Citadel is Christian di Portzamparc I believe.

"...façade cladding for 'The Flying Carpet,' comprising 6900 m2 of polyester concrete façade plates with heavy profiling." Per the supplier or contractor's website.

Though far from my favourite, it's still light years ahead of pretty much any retail / live / work concept we've got here.

A few shots from our visit on October 7:

The three below show the striated precast panels (already groused about in earlier posts) and how they relate to the decorative treatment on the lobby windows. I am curious to see how it all looks when done - the lobby could be quite striking.
