Love that rusty brown, looking forward to seeing what it does for Bisha too!

Looks great. I like the rusty brown as well. A different colour for a change.

Looking nice and not the typical stuff we get in Toronto.

- Where it's urban. And dense.
Yeah, I was gonna call it 'burgundy,' but rusty brown is what I was looking for. It does look really good here.

To me, this is the best building architectually we've had in Toronto in recent years.
If Bissa ends up similar, then it stands the chance to be Toronto's best, taking the crown from the Scotia Plaza.

This is my favourite new condo project. I have no idea why The Florian next door gets all of the hype; in my opinion the Yorkville blows it out of the water.

Have they switched the gold-tinted window panels yet?

The two towers are great together. The Florian has noticeably superior cladding and finishes but not much in the way of architectural identity. Yorkville Condos has more architectural character but less remarkable materials. Neither appears particularly deficient overall; they're two fine towers on the northern edge of downtown.

Those are strong words. I really like wallman, this is a great project. Hopefully bisha turns out well, but there is NO CHANCE that it will take the crown from scotia plaza.

This building manages to be a whole skyline, all on its own. Love the colours you get out of your photos Nastapoka. Thanks!

Really wish we had more colorful buildings like this one.
Agreed. More colour like this would be cool.
