not often you can call a tower "sexy", but these are that and more.

i agree! it's too bad these towers weren't built in the toronto waterfront...

but hey, at least they're putting mississauga on the map. good for them!

Looks like the extra work underneath the balconies will create a ripple effect when looking upwards.










Parkside will be in the forefront


Even the Pigeons/Doves can only sit and admire the magnificence


The civic square is being redone


Onyx is on the left. Looking east on Webb


Widesuites












My favourite angle






















What's good about having a mall nearby is that you can use the rogue shopping carts as a temporary bench when waiting for the lights to change...

Mississauga of all places huh...well good for them, these two are pretty unique. They'll definitely stand out in what looks like a boring skyline.

Absolutely stunning! As far as I'm concerned these go toe-to-toe with Chicago's Aqua.

I ate at the Camp 31 Concession at the Ribfest on Sparks Street in Ottawa last month,which was a real treat, since they are from Paris Ontario, and I've eaten at their restaurant several times.

Besides that, looking at all of the updated pics of Absolute and other projects in the Misses, I think it's safe to say that in about 10 years time, there won't be a "Towers in the park" vibe to the central part of the city...it'll just be a solid wall of buildings east to west, and gradually north to south.

This version of the Mississauga Ribfest has been the best so far...

Crazy picture updates! The buildings are simply massive, and really tall, even when not finished...
