Hey ! Don't you know there's a recession going on !

Seriously , good job. This is really quite a unique project and , sorry to say it once more , but that it's in Missi is a surprise. Not that Missi is undeserving or anything ... just unexpected.

Mississauga has to start somewhere. Better late than never.

Holy crap, look at all those midrises and highrises. Thats incredible.

nice to see the other tower rise. i love how fluid the tower is. the balconies do a good job of rotating and avoid 'sharp edges'

I wonder how that middle part where the twist becomes more extreme will look. is the tower that's ahead the 585ft tower?

awesome shot, can someone map me where it was taken from? I'm unfamiliar with the area.

Will this be the first twisting skyscraper in North America?

Wow that's pretty ambitious, trying to turn a bedroom community into a real city. Good luck to them.

My guess would be just outside the financial district RBC,Ritz, Simcoe Place at Front & Wellington

I wouldn't call Miss. a bedroom community as it's the industrial heartland of the GTA is home to 700,000 and has many highrises and a busy transit system.

Great pics
The renders don't lie!! :cool:

This area has sprung up so much in the last 10 years, it's insane...

The gap between the skylines is slowly filling in from the Misses to T-dot...I can remember when visiting T.O as a kid that all of that area near Front and Spadina was all train yards and brownfields...looks nothing like the way it did back in the 80's or even the 90's...

Amazing pic!

It might be, but if not I think it improves on the form if there has been. I haven't seen another 'liquid' or 'rotating' form in North America that looks as sleek yet.
