Interesting their website uses the diacritic too. Though a conscious marketing decision, in some eras in some places that might be a negative on balance, but clearly here they viewed it as desirable. As a weird coincidence, just saw a journalist named Aurélien Mondon on tv analyzing the France presidential campaign.

Some pages back there was talk of previously having seen a model in the BKL office; I hadn't seen anything confirmed as current, especially given the (head fake?) blurb about a very tall building coming. Usually when a Spyguy announcement rolls around, there is at last something definitive.

Is everybody aware that this is also a view-terminating tower along the Pearson corridor, from as far east as LSD. (From only Mies VDR in summer, when Pearson foliage blocks it from LSD.) A rare phenomenon in our hyper-gridded city. (From that distance I wouldn't call it overly bad; it even kind of shouts "big city.")
