How many buildings are behind the hotel? At first glance it looked like one mega building forming a wall of blue glass. I agree that the hotel adds some much needed variety and texture to the area. Calgary is starting to feel the same in certain areas. I’m beginning to value some of the old brutalist boxes as they offer some contrast and depth.

There are 3 buildings in behind: Ritz-Carlton, Simcoe Place, RBC Centre
Not sure what to make of this. It's the new bus terminal at Steeles & Hurontario in Brampton.
It adds some creative dimension to what otherwise would be an unremarkable intersection and area around Shoppers World. But at the same time, I can see passing by 20 years from now and saying God damn, what an eyesore.

I get that they’re trying to be ‘funky’ and ‘different’ but that already looks dated. It’s just trying sooooo hard to be noticed. Reminds me of some stuff from the 90’s.
I know buildings aren't people, but there is something inherently sad about seeing a stately old building being treated with a total lack of dignity that way. It would have been less heinous to have just demolished the building and built something new in the first place.
