Typical Toronto. It's too tall and wide to have zero step backs. That 3 storey podium next to the townhouses accomplishes little except to skew the F.S.I. as if there were step backs.
Depends if the white and grey are brick. Of course, the typical fenstration cluttered with venting and random mullions and spandrel will make it look like shit.
