Quickest way for me to get around downtown and take pictures of all the construction sites.
Also the CN Tower gives really good views above some projects and you can see the ones really far away.

indeed it does, especially on the skyline/from a distance. I remember way back UT posters used to do fantasy renderings of Aura... it looks identical to those.

Taken today:
I don't mind Aura's silhouette on the skyline but a actual visible setback wouldn't have been so bad on east/west sides.
Also, glass appears to be going up on the lower slope as per the webcam.

The Aura Tower looks so lonely. Needs some company, maybe Karma or YC Condos will even out that picture in the future.

Karma is too short. YC Condos is on the short side too but, within range.

YC is 650ft.... In any other city they'd be calling it huge . In Toronto we call that "in the short range" lol

It's only short compared to Aura. Take Aura away and it would be the one towering over everything at College & Yonge.
