That's actually a great looking project for Waterloo. Would love to see more new Euro scaled, mid-rise infill buildings built along King Street.

Being a huge baseball fan, I'll definitely attend some games. Sure it's not MLB, but it would still be a fairly high-caliber.. Hopefully we'll get at least a AA team or something.

Yes, as well as dust (during the construction) and the destruction of their houses (they were saying that the use of dynamite would blow up the nearby houses

).

I think that it will probably be approved by city council. The thing I am unsure of is whether they will get some of the funding they asked for from the provincial government. They want to start building it next spring.

Must be a trite existence being an urban planner in Sherbrooke, don't they know that cities grow by constructing buildings?

Yes. Sorry, forgot to put that in the description.

6th & 10th proposal by Brad Lamb is ok, but add about 6 -7 floors and get rid of the dark colors. Then you got a winner! IMO

WhipperSnapper · #**3871** Posted **Nov 12, 2011, 11:48 PM**

Just curious ... how would adding six or seven floors improve the design? I hear this all the time and most of the time (like this one) the massing can't be described as "stumpy" .

TallBob · #**3872** Posted **Nov 13, 2011, 4:04 AM**

That's just my preference. The taller the better.

I'm not curious at all. It doesn't. Forumers are generally stupid. In my humble opinion, which we are all entitled to.

Toronto Sun’s King Street building getting new look

Following the long-standing Toronto tradition of adding glass expansions to old buildings, next week First Gulf Corporation is set to begin work on this addition to the Toronto Sun building at 333 King Street East.

When completed, the three-storey addition will house the headquarters of Coca-Cola Canada.

The 36-year-old building currently houses the offices of Toronto Sun and 24 Hours – as well as a recently-opened facility for George Brown College.
