Florian is turning out really well. Tridel should have taken notes for Reve, now this is black, done properly.

I agree, this is looking very classy indeed, and what a pleasant change to see brick construction rather than all glass!

^Except it's not brick... Precast concrete panels with a brick imprint and coloured to look like the real thing.

Still good-looking though, and probably the next trend in Toronto condos as all glass is too energy inefficient.

The colour of the brick pre-cast faux thingy panels is very similar to what is being used on The Modern, as well as the glass colour.

A fair amount of marble being installed along the west side of the building.

Really lov'n this building--the renders didn't look too promising, but reality is so much better!

I think it's very German.

in 25 years, once the brick has aged, we'd all wish that they had chosen a different colour.

for refence, look towards the dark coloured circa 1970 rental apartment buildings that are plagueing the city today. There is a reason why many of them have now been reclothed in grey metal sideing.

Again, its not actual brick so its not going to erode in the same manner.

That marble is a nice touch.

The crane was in the stages of being dismantled this morning. I should have had my camera with me.
