That four storey jut out turns that from a decent building into a great building. Love the clean lines and the simple added bonus of the box.

Canadian cities big and small are all seeing strong growth and some great designs while much of the world struggles. For that we should all be proud.
Amen brotha!

But I'm aloud to be jealous of QC, they're getting some amazing designs.

What history? Truces are for 5 year olds and trigger-happy appalachian hillbillies. Adults on the other hand shouldn't feel the need to personally attack someone for having opinions, much less ones that are correct. Only the one who does all the instigating need to adjust.

When did 460 Yonge become 207 metres? The development application states that it will be 198.5 metres.

That didn't cout to the top of the spire, just the mech.

Another building at 200 meters for "the dot"

So we stand at 33 built-under-construction-proposed-potential developments over 200 meters.

Just 7 more gets us to 40 towers over 200 meters, this year. The year of the Apocolypse 2012.

LOL - what spire. "I don't know (why)" is just not in your repertoire, eh?



It's was revised weeks ago in accordance to the development application.
