Hey ! Don't you know there's a recession going on !

Seriously , good job. This is really quite a unique project and , sorry to say it once more , but that it's in Missi is a surprise. Not that Missi is undeserving or anything ... just unexpected.

Mississauga has to start somewhere. Better late than never.

nice to see the other tower rise. i love how fluid the tower is. the balconies do a good job of rotating and avoid 'sharp edges'

I wonder how that middle part where the twist becomes more extreme will look. is the tower that's ahead the 585ft tower?

Will this be the first twisting skyscraper in North America?

Molson Export was one of my favourite beers growing up in Montreal.
Wow that's pretty ambitious, trying to turn a bedroom community into a real city. Good luck to them.

I wouldn't call Miss. a bedroom community as it's the industrial heartland of the GTA is home to 700,000 and has many highrises and a busy transit system.

It might be, but if not I think it improves on the form if there has been. I haven't seen another 'liquid' or 'rotating' form in North America that looks as sleek yet.
