It's actually one building made to look like two.
Here's a great time lapse animation of the construction process (it's not private, just click on the blue button below)

 
I like those trucks driving the wrong way down Richmond Street in the video
 
Yea, you can tell it's more like a U shaped building than anything, just look at the cladding between the two skinnier potrusions.
Actually, the podium is L-shaped, being twice as wide on Richmond as it is on Lombard, and then there's a bit of a notch taken out of the northeast corner of the L for the tower floors, but that doesn't really leave it as a U.

Does anyone know the soil types that exist below the regular 'top soil'? Is it mostly silty clay or something? Sure looks like clay, but I am not a geologist.
