Nice, so it will make a pretty nice modern mark on the skyline

Indeed and more so because there is not much height north and west of there.

Fairly quiet right now.

The Rolston is a bore. It's an attempt by a bad architect to try something different. The end result is rubbish.

Hot Condos by Great Gulf coming to Mississauga. Looks like Great Gulf's version of Daniels' First Home concept. http://homesandcondosblog.com/home/coming-soon-hot-condos-7310.html

Rolston came in on the box frame trend 5 years late, and not particularly sophisticated at that.

It's pretty cool even with the surface parking lot. To bad they couldn't put it underground.
