the impact on the skyline of just these 5 towers combined will be huge!
the street level will also look vastly improved. |

I took a few pictures yesterday of the various projects going up in my local area. In the image below, you can see three towers going up, two of which are part of a condo project, and the other, an expansion of an apartment building.

Hamilton is on fire! Fantastic shots as well - really enjoyed looking at those.
Aqualuna in Toronto - gorgeous!! I didn’t think it would turn out as good as the renders, but it has thus far. |
So many 30 floor buildings for Hamilton. :haha:
It’s going to really change the skyline. |

It's been a while since I posted about these towers going up in Mississauga. There's 4 towers underway in just this masterplan, and 5 cranes in total. It's great to finally see this site get closer to completion.

Very Neo-Brutalist. Love it.

Yeah I agree, the neo-britalist choice was a good one, especially given it's prominent location the seen from Saint-jacques street. I imagine a glass tower wouldn't have had quite a positive effect here.

There's a stately area around Province House that has a high concentration of medium scale older masonry buildings including some Art Deco masterpieces (Dominion and Bank of NS). Unfortunately many buildings around there have been torn down over the years (like the Royal Bank building and Customs House) but these new developments are expanding that area a bit again. The last piece would be an overhaul of the foot of George Street, law courts, and Chebucto Landing. |
