I think you are, like many people, unwilling to see that you may have bought a Unit in a building that is not showing many (any?) signs of 'working' and though Units may increase in value due to the (amazing) price increases we are seeing, will never be seen as anything but 'utilitarian. As others have said, nobody here thinks that the former uses of the site (a failed grocery store in a repurposed garage) or a car dealer with a huge parking lot - plus 'the Purple House) were good uses for this prominent site. Obviously, something was going to happen and it was - at least in part - going to be 'quite tall'. The building will bring, much welcomed, newcomers (like you and your family) to our neighbourhood but you will be living in a building that simply does not fit into (and changes) the fabric of the neighbourhood itself and, one assumes, you and other buyers were attracted by the neighbourhood. Once this building is finished it will be a different place. In general, the built form south of Front is mid-rise with a fair amount of green-space; this building is huge and quite overpowering at street level.
Yes, it is not yet finished, and one is sometimes pleasantly surprised at how 'finishing touches' can REALLY improve a building, but as it moves onwards, it seems to me (and many others here) that to see more of it is to see more failings and missed opportunities It is very unfortunate that the building is built right up to the property line on the Sherbourne, Esplanade and Princess sides (there is a bit more space and a, much needed, wider sidewalk on Front). The developer paid too much for the site so was not prepared to put all parking underground and rather than excavating and removing the polluted soil it was capped. The POPS 'courtyard' is already in semi-permanent shade (and the building surrounding it is far from finished). The windows and 'siding' look cheap and uninspired. The retail spaces appear to be too small and separated to attract useful retailers (though I am prepared to be surprised here as I think no retailers have been announced.)
