Loving the amount of glass on the upper levels and roof. Can't wait to check out the inner atrium in person.

Ah that's what that dig is for.
There will be a warehouse-like building for "temporary energy centre" there? That's unfortunate.

Isn't it just hung like a cheap Ikea 'floating' shelf that doesn't in fact hold books (ask me how I know).

I can't remember if we'd reviewed before. The stone panels being incredibly thin.. .these are an engineered laminate using stone laminated with _______?

I'm waiting to see if there will be damage due to water infiltration because of those ledges.

Small one will have a kind of built in short wall / bench with some trees.

Big one is undecided, its on the Lebreton plan as a city dev parcel, but its really an odd one so its future is unknown.
