Would be neat to photoshop them in there to get a taste of how it might look. Is CtrAltDel around here? I remember his awesome future skyline projections on SSP. Or atleast I think it was him...

Why you no take picture!?

I mean if a Torontonian (or their real estate agent) can't take 10 minutes to browse comparable listings, to see that this is a solid 20% overpriced, than I guess they deserve to be ripped off. I can see overpaying for something you love or live in, but when it's purely an investment, the...

Oh I really like the mid-century building, but I'm talking about this guy. Would be more appropriate in a suburban office park, but I like the 80s tech vibe it gives off. I also like the age-appropriate Caravan in the photo.

One who we all wish had a little better vision.

Would've preferred they went with the art-deco aesthetic everywhere...but I don't hate the idea of this. Although I'm a little sceptical of the final outcome, as I have feeling they'll cheap out on a lot of the materials and details, which is what makes old-world design like this really work...

I know I'm in the minority, but I still like the 80s office building portion. It has that retro 80s-future vibe (I can picture it being the HQ of some fictional tech corporation on McGyver). It would probably make some sweet loft conversions.

It's nice to get a development on this lot, but I'm disappointed in the banal design considering the prominent location. This would've been a great spot for a little curved glass, or just something a little more interesting, like the Dominion Towers. This section is of Memorial acts as a gateway...

$400K for 400 square feet is ridiculous bad value, even with plenty of room for a Michael Scott sized plasma tv. The location is definitely not a bad one, but anyone with any modicum of effort can find much better values out there, whether in Eau Claire itself or Kensington that gives you the...

I'd like to see one of these office conversions on the inside. With the increased height, and with a potentially more industrial feeling aesthetic, I actually think they could be pretty cool and give off a bit of a loft vibe. If I was a hip and happening bachelor again, I'd personally find these...

I'm glad they left the brick as-is, and there are no try-hard color squares. All in all, with the new windows, this will be an upgrade.

I'm onboard (toot toot) elevated trains for the totally selfish reason of getting some sweet views and photo opportunities out of them.

Good stuff for sure. This is honestly about as good as one can hope for on Macleod. Having a wall of steps isn't great, but unless there are serious changes to the road itself, it's not like anyone will be strolling down here like it's the Champs-Elysses anyway, so whatever, can't let perfect be...

For fear of being called a Stampitecturist, one element I wish they would've considered at street level is some brick. It really would've warmed up the street presence, especially in the winter time. My favourite part of the video is the brick building/section at around 6 seconds...but not...

Visualize those renderings in February, and it's kind of a dour picture. This thing is starting to give me post-reno Devonian Gardens atmosphere vibes.

Still underwhelmed by the exterior architecture (and those renderings don't help), but at this stage that's a moo point, so hopefully at least it's all efficient and atmospheric on the inside.

Is this another proposal from the Terrigno (of Osteria Medici fame) family?

Good points. If you want more affordable housing to be built, it needs to pencil out in the context of wherever it's built. It needs to be "affordable" for the owner/landlord just as much as it does for whoever is buying/renting...probably even more so, as otherwise it just doesn't exist. Nobody...

They sure managed to cram in a lot of buzzwords in this proposal.

While the form factor is 70s slab, aesthetical treatment wise, I don't mind this. The colors look relatively harmonious, the amount of them looks to be kept in check, and I'm always a fan of white. I'm not going to call it timeless, but assuming we get what's shown here, this will will age much...
