I can do maple leaf square, i just need more architectural info on it. Those pdf files that the city releases all info for tower proposals...where can i find those. The only reason i was able to the Four Seasons was because besides the rendering someone had posted a link to the pdf file for the four seasons.

I need one for Maple leaf Square, and the Cadillac Fairview, and hopefully the Hummingbird Center Tower. If anyone can help me as to where to get these files (im guessing a toronto website of some sort) then it would be ALLOT of help, becasue they show all sides and dimensions to the tower.

no such files exist for the Cadillac Fairview tower since it has been approved since 1990

the hummingbird tower has yet to be formally submitted

JBinCalgary · #**208** Posted **Feb 24, 2006, 9:03 PM**

that should add some great height to the skyline

Hey guys ive started on the Maple Leaf Square South and North Tower renderings. I should have a finished rendering by this sunday because im to busy to complete it today or tommorow.

JBinCalgary · #**210** Posted **Feb 24, 2006, 9:54 PM**

"the south Tower is proposed at 166m abd the north tower at 154.2 m."

just remember those heights do not include the mechanical penthouses

I was in Toronto again last week. I'm still blown away by the number of cranes in the area - they're everywhere. Are there a lot more proposed buildings for the Harborfront Centre/Queen's Quay/CN Tower area? The new construction in that area is really fascinating. What is that neighborhood called, anyway?

I was walking there on Wednesday and created a photo thread out of it. There are a crapload of photos and a cool pano from the park next to the old Steamwhistle Brewing building. Check it out if you have a chance:

I cant wait to see the new renderings.

icescraper · #**214** Posted **Mar 6, 2006, 4:54 PM**

The new construction below the CN Tower is called City Place. 19 new towers in total up to 60+ storeys to be completed by about 2011. Maple leaf square featuring a 48 and 52? storey tower appears to be a sure thing will go up adjacent to the air canada center. I haven't agreed to placement of all tall towers in Toronto but the size and placement of these two should really have a positive effect on the skyline. After 2010 the cities intent is to move new water front development east of yonge street.

I was just in Toronto for the weekend and stayed next to the old Maple Leaf Gardens. Just curious-any plans for it? It may be old news-just don't know. Also 1 King West looks great. TO is starting to have that skyscraper jungle effect in that area by the skydome looking like an Asian skyline. The last time I was in TO you could see the skydome while driving in-unreal development going on up there.

JBinCalgary · #**216** Posted **Mar 7, 2006, 12:37 AM**

i heard they were turning into a grocery store?

neilioo · #**217** Posted **Mar 9, 2006, 11:31 PM**

IM just wondering...but where is Montage (City Place) in the Toronto diagram..its not there.

And also, im done the hummingbird center tower, so i thought id post it here first before submitting it.

Fantastic as usual.

"Are there a lot more proposed buildings for the Harborfront Centre/Queen's Quay/CN Tower area? The new construction in that area is really fascinating. What is that neighborhood called, anyway?"

West of Spadina - Cityplace
Between Skydome & ACC - not yet named?
Queens Quay East - most likely will adopt the name East Bayfront

most of the vacant land in the areas has firm re-development plans (possibly a hundred buildings)

Yeah, really liking the Hummingbird diagram
