And that's being kind. They have good barbecue bison in the restaurant though.

Here are some future shots of the skyline from a Yorkville Perspective.








by wyliepoon.

Now that Aura is under construction, forsure, City Council will be under the gun by developers to allow more tall buildings in the Yonge and Gerrard Area. Alot of stuff will go up there in the future, as it will be hard for the city to fight height there for a while. And it looks like alot of the stuff there that is already standing, can easily be demolished to make way for bigger and better buildings.

Aura will change Yonge and Gerrard, and Yonge and College forever.

Even Yonge and Dundas will feel different with Aura looming over the place.

Good progress on this one. I cannot wait to see it start to make an impact on the streetscape and skyline.

Me too. Probably will be a while at the podium levels, I suspect though.

Also the new signage said. "The New Face of Yonge Street"
