I love that first Toronto shot. Toronto looks great at dusk.

Great shots guys.
I laugh a little bit every time I see L-Tower's crane still up.
What's with that anyway ?

Major delay with the window washing equipment. They are installing a mini crane on top of the building, so the big crane can be disassembled.

Let's see if it actually happens.

East Village is really starting to look like a proper extension of the skyline now.

Those lines at the top are quite striking. Being one of the tallest buildings in the city, Aura is starting to seem quite iconic.

Aura looks amazing at night, and it's a decent building as far as adding to the skyline. It's a shame that it's podium isn't as good but seeing that most people will only ever view it from a distance it makes for a nice tall tower.

I disagree. Aura's lighting sucks dick. I can only conclude the support stems from people's strong desire for night lighting giving way to quality. Doesn't highlight the tower's design in any way. (well, in a gross phallus representation) The brightness just burns your eyes.
