I really hope, for your sake, that this is one of those CharcWhites that gets polished up before shovels hit the ground and that they don't actually build the Sketchup designed monstrosity they use for massing. It goes both ways in this city.

I guess this one is approved, because it is fenced off and excavation is well underway!

Every time I see a new CharcWhite break ground I think of the scene in The Lord of the Rings when the Uruk-Hai was born of the mud.

Tower Crane is up.

This should have a nice impact in the area. Will be nice to have a modern tower amongst a few commie blocks.

I pass by here quite often and it's pretty tall now - taller than its neighbours so it must be within a few floors of topping out now!

Even more charc-y and white-y than the renderings

My favourite look!

Coming in from the West end looks like doggy doo doo. This one, then the three Centrepointe CharcWhites, then the new Carling CharcWhites, and on top of that most of the older buildings in the West end have a fresh coat of Charcoal and White paint. I'm heading to Ukraine and Moldova next week...some of the suburbs there might feel familiar

There's a condo on Richmond that was a nice brown and teal colour scheme - great 80s/90s vibe and surprise surprise they have changed it for charcoal and white. I HATE THIS CITY!

Yeah, that one is terrible. This city has a vendetta against colour.

Not really into this building so far. Cool balconies on the OG but that stucco hurts.

Very nice angles! The redeeming factor for me is that they matched the South facade to the existing buildings new paint job. I think the building is pretty crap on it's own, but at least it matches it's surroundings.

It looks better than I expected!
