I'm old enough to remember when you walked up to a counter and someone handed you something that you only gave them as much money as the cash register said.

I did tip as this barista is Scottish and very pleasant and chatty! The restaurant portion is opening in a couple of weeks.

I tip only if the building facade where the resto is located has appropriate colour, texture, fine grain and articulation.

Tuesday, late afternoon. Please excuse the duplication below, but I found the two slightly different perspectives too good to resist. They remind me of the quote:

Here's an old quote by Creighton Abrams: “When eating an elephant, take one bite at a time.” Clearly, no one is encouraging dining on these fantastic animals, but it's good advice about how to tackle a huge, overwhelming project—like the climb to success.

Nice photo!

I think the mechanical penthouse on top really takes away from the building. Are they still planning to clad it? For reference, in the HPA concept for 100 Simcoe they seem to show some cladding on 19 Duncan (which is also an HPA design). Maybe it got VE'd out?

...that might still be a work in progress. Kinda like what was done with Casa II.
