Lookin good so far! can't wait to see some renderings and other things soon!
|
FF118, there are a lot of renderings for most of these towers in the regional forum under Ontario. You might have to look around but they are there. There was a lot of conversation on Trump and Sapphire towers back last fall and winter.
|
The Trump Tower is only a proposal? I thought it was under construction.
|
the Trump Tower in Chicago is under construction, the one in Toronto that shares the same name is a proposal
|
Trump is approved and in sales. There's a forumer with inside info that posts regularly over at SSC and according to that person, ground-breaking is to happen around December 05/January 06.
|
/\ That would be great! Hopefully we'll see the Sapphire materialise shortly afterward.
|
I thought Both were underconstruction.
|
no, no. Neither are under construction. Trump is still in sales. According to Trump himself, sales are going very well and we should expect to start seeing digging and construction "soon".
Sapphire is being run by a guy whom many Toronto forumers have classified as little more than a hack. So who knows when that will be built if ever. |
nice nice nice...
|
You will be able to add The Met at 415 ft. and 43 floors to the list of under construction buildings as excavation began this week.
|
There doesn't appear to be a diagram for that one, guess one will have to be drawn :cool:
|
ROCP at 505 ft. doesn't have a diagram, ROCP II at 45 floors doesn't either and the same goes for many of the proposed buildings.
|
West One at 484 ft. and 49 floors is assembling the crane now. Looks like this one is a go.
Taken by thx1038 at UT: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y29...d/DSC03612.jpg The Tower on the left is West One, the tower on the right is N1 which should begin construction soon as well given it is 100% sold. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2.../WestOneN1.jpg Also a rendering of the Met which began excavation last week: http://skyscraperpage.com/gallery/data/547/2507met.jpg |
That looks most impressive, at 49 stories the skyline would start to look all the more wider.
|
TO Boy, are there any complete condos / highrises that you would like to see drawn? I prefer to work from real photos of completed buildings over renderings (cuz as we all know, Rendering and real built don't always match up eh?)
|
I couldn't find "The Met" diagram, and that has started construction.
|
Well besides Tony, there are really no other artists that draw for the Toronto diagram section anymore so the Met which is a more recent project isn't even listed along with its shorter tower Encore.
Tony: Here is a recent shot take by Candian National of Harbour View Estates and the surrounding cityplace buildings. http://www3.sympatico.ca/1hunkwinch/...aCityplace.JPG I take it you might want some shots of the base as well, but I can only suggest using emporis: http://www.emporis.com/en/il/im/?id=363415 http://skyscraperpage.com/gallery/data/547/2507ie2.jpg Also now that 1 King West is nearling completion it may be an option to you http://skyscraperpage.com/gallery/data/547/25071kww.jpg http://www.globalphotos.org/toronto/...6/RIMG0380.jpg Other than that, Toronto hasn't really completed anythig else substantial. |
This is certainly boomtime for highrises. Last time it was the 70s but already this century there's been more going up than in any other decade it seems.
|
ok, Met & Encore have now been added.
I suppose IKW could use a little update now that Blue has changed to Green glass. |
