Another amazing future angle by steveve featuring:

1. BIG’s proposed (pixelated, of course ;-) Union Centre 274m-52s (right centre foreground)
2. 160 Front West, 249m-46s u/c (sloping curved roof behind Union Centre)

I see the Mervish towers are still there. Are they actually still going to get built or are they basically now just "stale" proposals?

Here are two infographics I've shared on Twitter (https://twitter.com/futuremodelTO) featuring growth in the Downtown Core. I'll repost them here:

1/2

Since the start of the Condominium Boom, residential development in Toronto's Downtown Core has vastly outnumbered the construction of other building-types. This trend continues to be realized, with current and future development as illustrated in this graphic.



2/2

This visual highlights skyscrapers in Downtown Toronto exceeding 200 metres in height, emphasizing areas where future height and density are being proposed in contrast to what exists today.

That's an awesome infographic. It's interesting how much the Yonge subway branch has developed, and continues to develop, to this day, while the University-Spadina branch doesn't develop at anywhere near the same rate.

The Lougheed / Burquitlam future skyline:

Some of the colours I couldn't change easily so they weren't meant to be red lol, but yellow means they are approved and started to sell or demolish existing, Red means they are in the application/proposal process and green means they are under construction, plus there are a lot of 6 storeys as part of the towers or just stand alones that are not shown or represented. There are also 6 towers for Whitgift gardens that aren't represented, was just getting too cluttered up there.

Thanks to Klazu for the original pic.

Awesome development. Ottawa seems to be firing on all cylinders these days.

Awesome graphics Steveve! You've really stepped up the future skyline rendering game.

There are a few errors in the "use type" graphic, mostly just missing a few residential/hotel uses and misattributing them to residential only.
- Mirvish Gehry's tallest tower has a hotel in it
- 411 King has a hotel component I believe
- You have the ACE hotel as residential even though it's all hotel
- The Ontario Hydro building addition is listed as residential only even though it also includes a significant amount of new office space
- 475 Yonge has a significant hotel component
- 88 Queen's tallest tower has a good size office component in the podium
- you have the hotel at Trinity and mill st as a residential building
- 488 University has a significant office component
- the shortest tower of Chelsea Green (33 Gerrard W) is hotel
- 250 Dundas West has a large office component
- 1075 Bay has a large office component
- the three south Well towers should be mixed use as they have large office podiums
- not sure what is going on with the 2 Tecumseth model, but there is an all office building in that development

Model looks amazing Steveve.

Two developments you could add: 287 Davenport Rd and 89 Avenue Rd.

I wouldnt take Mirvish-Gehry seriously at this point and would consider omitting it. But no worries.

You are the master Steve

I'll take 16 of the 29 proposed, moving to construction asap. 50 total 200metre+ scrapers is just fine for the time being.

But your totals are only Bloor/Yorkville to the lake correct? Yonge and Eglinton will be chipping in the near future, maybe Yonge and St. Clair one day (One Delisle @ 150m is a good start) and North York is overdue.

So more than 50 is ok with me too.
