I've been told through a friend involved in engineering the Dundas St. canopy that when producing the detailed drawings for parts to be manufactured for the canopy, Frank Gehry has added "subtle touches of beauty".
My friend doesn't think they'll make another model or rendering since construction is under way, but told me to expect a few more Gehryesque twists to the glass canopy along its length.
The great news is that the AGO committed to upgrading the park in exchange for community support on the project. If Gehry is given the task of redeveloping Grange Park, we might have a "mini Millenium Park" on our hands.
I'm not quite sure what Gehry would do to Grange, but I'm sure he'd want to preserve the intimate quiet feeling it has today. That's not to say that he can't add touches of his to create a clean, concise layout with Gehryesque elements throughout.
