That's my point - TheKingEast seems unimpressed with what is 'proposed' for the water feature yet what is shown in renderings and in the video posted above is taller and seems to have more water than what exists on Cumberland. I guess a better question might therefore be 'what is so underwhelming?'

unimpressed? All I said is I doubt the water will be flowing like that year round and I'm pretty sure it will be turned of in the winter.

The water wouldn't be flowing because it would be frozen. That's the idea.

Definitely looking forward to the chic new forecourt waterfall. My favourite one in the city right now has to be Cloud Gardens.

If that waterfall park is built, I know where my new favourite spot is while aimlessly wandering on King st.

And I said I didn't think that would happen, that's all.

Today:

This is moving slower than Larry Murphy.

It'll take another 4 or 5 more floors before it picks up once the floorplates become more standard. By mid summer this will be half up and we'll be praising or sneering at the cladding!

A bit more progress:

 

[Atlantis]

Just walked past this afternoon, and some of the scaffolding is down revealing how the podium is shaping up.

The chamfered concrete around the edges almost makes it feel like a picture frame.

 

[Tewder]

Stomp is playing at the Alex? Hello Mirvish, the 90s called and wants its novelty show back! Good grief, no wonder he's tearing down the POW if this is the extent of his offerings.

Compare this structure to Aura's... Smarter design here.

 

[Atlantis]

Should look pretty sharp when it's all done! Can't wait to see the interplay between the glass and metal components.

I completely disagree. The cladding/material choices will be better than Aura for sure, but there is no doubt in my mind that Aura is nicer in terms of design.

 

[urbandreamer]

You missed my point: I am not debating material choice but rather attention to design details: Specifically, compare the concrete columns, floor slabs, support beams etc to your typical G+C design.

Fair enough. I don't think anybody will dispute aA's attention to detail, especially not when it comes to what we've seen so far at Theatre Park.
