Tour Windsor : un nouvel édifice à bureaux

Adjacente au Centre Bell, la Tour Windsor incarne un bel exemple de projet immobilier novateur à l'image de la créativité montréalaise. Ce projet de 28 étages propose 48 000 m2 de superficie de bureaux dans cette partie très convoitée du centre-ville (à titre de comparaison, le projet Altoria compte 100 000 m2 de bureaux).

Are they finally going to do something about the UGLIEST building in Montreal, the Hotel de la Montagne??

This block looks like this at the moment...

I would actually argue that this...

http://blogues.cyberpresse.ca/lapresseaffaires/immobilier/

...is better described as the cheap knock off of Aqua as, just like Aqua, it uses only the shape of the balcony floorplates to create the undulated effect, whereas this...

...while also manipulating the balcony floorplates to create an undulating effect, also creates and emphasizes the effect by use of fritted glass on the balconies.

I actually prefer both the Montreal and Toronto proposals over Aqua as to me Aqua looks perpetually unfinished.

trueviking · #**4770** Posted **Apr 3, 2012, 9:32 PM**

really?...to me the chicago one has far more finesse.

wonder how they deal with the cold transfer through the cantilevered concrete.

that transit building is cool.....proposal day in montreal?

rapid_business · #**4771** Posted **Apr 3, 2012, 9:35 PM**

It is a HUGE issue. Let me find the article about it...

EDIT: Here is the article from the G&M I was thinking about.

This one definitely lacks height, ambition and aesthetic beauty.

Actually it will be an excellent filler for that narrow, very minor street. The twins won't show in the skyline, but they offer perfect street density, with shops on the first floor. It's not high end, but it's designed by the the gang of Cardinal Hardy, so the details and material should be fine.

Way to go Montreal !

le peterson reminds me of Rize Alliance's "Waves Living" in Surrey.

Well, it's hard to argue with that!
