Thanks, don't forget to thank Kamuix, Boris and Vid too. Yes, Absolute World is in Mississauga, but thats part of the GTA. I'm working on a new drawing of it that's not so cartoonish and is the proper height.

LOL!... Are you sure you want to know

One word for my pics "FAIL!"... Literally.

steveve · #**4891** Posted **Dec 2, 2009, 10:23 PM**

OMG!!!!!

Everyday more glass comes in, and with every floor the slanted area of the glass gets larger!!!!!

SO EXCITING WATCHING THE RITZ CAM!!!! (well.... not really

)

caltrane74 · #**4892** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 1:06 AM**

More from Ritz

THIS IS SKYSCRAPER CONSTRUCTION!! Right Here!!

Tomorrow I'll try and sneek some updates of Four Seasons and Crystal Blu / Uptown.

steveve · #**4893** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 1:29 AM**

WOW!

HOLY AWESOME SHOTS CALTRANE

The Ritz fits in well in the public square

caltrane74 · #**4894** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 1:34 AM**

got more

This thing is sooooooo tall, the fact it has basically the equavilant of 5 high ceiling floors to go is something incredible....

steveve · #**4895** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 1:38 AM**

^^^^ Especially since it's soo skinny and tall!!!

The perfect combination for making a building look taller than it actually is!

***You're barely fitting it in the shot

caltrane74 · #**4896** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 1:39 AM**

More ...

BREAK HERE!!!

FROM RITZ!!!!

AND HIGH!!!

steveve · #**4897** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 2:25 AM**

WOW that's INCREDIBLE!!!

In that shot of the Ritz you can really see how many units there are in the building and you can see right through it!!!

From the look of things... The building will get tainted when people move in with their white blinds.... You can see some white objects right thru the glass

I hope alot of people don't have some white blinds or else it'll change the overall cleanliness of the building...

craner · #**4898** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 2:56 AM**

ICE will be taller than MLS correct ? That is a dream to picture as MLS looks so tall and slender as it is.
I'm loving Ritz.

WhipperSnapper · #**4900** Posted **Dec 3, 2009, 4:21 AM**

It's residential so the windows won't be washed that often. However, the physics are pretty simple. You angle the lines .
