Aura stands alone...


IMG_3229-Edit by asam31, on Flickr


I just noticed that the crane in the centre of the photo is for Pace, which is only 146 metres, but much closer to the camera than the rest of the skyline, meaning that from that angle it will really help to fill the gap.

But still not as lonely as Williams Tower in Houston.

YC condos will complement it nicely.

Just a tiny little notch under 200 meters, but it will have to do for now!

That Williams Tower is incredible looking. They don't build office towers like they used to.

Gawd-like set, Rico. She looks like a giant mechanical room. Just a beautiful clusterphoque... and dare I say, London-esque

This is probably my favourite Montreal shot of all time. Amazing.

That crown on Aura looks incredible. Overall perception over at Urban Toronto is overwhelmingly positive. Even people who hated the tower appear to really like it now. The lights make it. A new icon on the skyline in Toronto. It's a beast. You guys should have a look over at UT in the Aura forum... lots of great pics. I was in TO last night and witnessed it in real life. It's a game changer that's for sure.
