33 Avenue Road (revised design)









43 Gerrard St. West

[TorontoDrew]

Isn't 43 Gerrard St. West already under construction crane and all? Also is that Avenue Road (which I love) render any different then the one shown 2 weeks ago?

I think the redevelopment is supposed to happen concurrently with this one next door (brown/black building to left of centre):

The brick building in the foreground is the Roy Building, currently being redeveloped into this:

I don't recall seeing this image of Encore(or maybe my memory is going).

Big step up for that bit of Hamilton, imho.

QUAIS DE LORIMIER | 40 & 28 FLOORS | Montreal

Mandate: To create a mixed-use human-scale project connected to the city. Located at the foot of the Jacques-Cartier Bridge, Quais de Lorimier is where convenience meets creativity. This project restores a commercial area, caters to the local community, provides new residential opportunities and open urban spaces, and complements the offering of surrounding tourist destinations, such as Parc Jean-Drapeau, Saint-Helen’s Island, Notre-Dame Island, Parc Olympique, Grand Prix, and more.

The anti-podium. Loving the raised plinth and street interaction. Hoping the planters are substantial enough to support the kind of greenery suggested by the render. New favorite project in Toronto

[TorontoDrew]

Wow we like the same project for the same reasons.

Ya, that's what I think. Looks like it would look nice in Kanata, Milton, or dare I say Longueuil.

On the other hand I love that Avenue Road proposal.

I like it too. It's a grown-up counterpoint to the small town Maritime kitsch that you find along part of the waterfront. It's also going to bring the downtown buildings right down to the water.

I totally agree. It gives off a very Western European vibe... like something you'd expect to see in Rotterdam, Hamburg or some other such port city.

2 Queen West restoration + addition

Early concept design for the Galleria Mall redevelopment

[TorontoDrew]

It's a shame about losing the tower proposal for 2 Queen West but it's great to see that the facade there will get a complete restoration. The Galleria Mall proposal looks very promising.
