I would gladly trade in these four residential towers (which I am sure will work against our new "entertainment" zone) for the GM office tower (or I guess Rogers office tower now)
And good idea guys! All we need to do is plant some douglas firs on top of our 100m residential towers (green roof). Then, if we wait 400 to 500 years or so, those firs could grow as tall as 80 meters (or more) and then bam.....180 meter tall tower! Take that view cones!
Yeah, there goes our "entertainment" zone. I can hear it now, "Its to bright, its to loud, no concerts beyond 10 pm, cant someone just have the piece and quiet of the suburbs in the middle of an entertainment district?" hehe
That form has been there for quite a long time (maybe over a year)~ I suppose now it should probably be re-named Rogers Arena Towers They should copy the Leafs and name the development Canucks Square or Canucks Place, and make it a hip development, with a movie theater screen broadcasting the Canucks games, etc.
I actually wouldn't be surprised if that's the plan. There's a lot of people emulating MLSE's business plans, which makes sense, especially for him.
There has been a NEFC noise level review which will entail noise conventants on title. These towers aren't really any closer then the Espana tower or even Firenze, maybe a few metres so no need to worry.

That's a cool idea, but there is a movie theater down the street, but a bar like in calgary would be nice. Canucks Square would sound nice. I guess people would copy MLSE business plan because all they care about is $$$$
A screen outside of GM place broadcasting the games would be cool,but i think such a screen (or two) would be far better suited for Granville Street. You know, to help pump up the pedestrian only, entertainment zone atmosphere, have a couple large LED screens that broadcast all of the Canuck, White Caps and Lions games (along with PSAs and other community events / updates).

Yes, although, it will be hard to totally emulate as people in Toronto don't actually seem to care about the results of either of the franchises under MLSE's control.

Well now they are winning and some are talking bout the playoffs.
The project it self seems very promising, mostly due to location.
Saw an ad this week that the City is having some open houses on "Additional Higher building in the Downtown".
It looks there are proposals for "height increases significantly above current policy & regulations" which seems to include the Pattison Toyota site.
Sat 23rd at Central Library
Tues 26th at Pacific Centre Rotunda
Wed 27th at Roundhouse Community Centre
Some are already planning the route that goes down Younge st.
Can't wait for more info on the pattison site, for retail I doubt it would be something like Urban Fare or Nesters but something along the lines of Save-on or Price Smart
