Last I heard - Carra is not planning to run again

Thanks for sharing - your engagement efforts are much appreciated. This could be something very special. Hell - the City might want to designate this as a heritage asset someday! Best of luck

Shave off a couple floors and tie the approval it to plans, so the developer doesn't pull a bait and switch. The developer still gets a nice density bump and the community gets a beautiful project that's slightly shorter.

If you're going to spend resources recladding a building, why wouldn't you add more vision glass? I imagine those units are very dark.

Did this pass?

No glass again?

I commend Rndsqr for taking risks with design, but I can't say I'm a fan of this one. Brutalist and bunker like. It feels very unwelcoming.

I love this. This is a great space that expands the facility's functionality and user base. Much they same as the NCL. I have a feeling CMLC drove this.

Scott Builders was the Construction Manager, not ITC

As far as convention centres go, this is a very good design IMO. It looks more like an arena than a large boxy convention centre, which is a good thing. To me it's a mix of the Barclays Centre and Rogers Place. I also like how the design differs from the other recent projects in the area...

Any idea on what they've changed?

It's coming. I have been told we'll hear something this summer.
