I was expecting it to look a whole lot better than Telus (not that Telus isn't great)

The cladding on 18 York will go very nicely with telus! It kinda reminds me of the cladding on Four Seasons but not as good...

Caltrane, you always seem to capture the most EPIC shots of Crystal Blu ! It just look HUGE in your shot! I love the sight of the wall of cladding!

Festival looks GREAT!!! But i've always never really gotten used to seeing the Ritz and Festival together... they just don't really fit together imo (the design, cladding , colours, etc...)

Here's some Crystal and Uptown madness by Mike in TO:





I'd say about 3 more floors till we're tied with CB!

The cityplace looks AMAZING! There's some pretty amazing architecture going up there! cool community growing!

There's going to be a skybridge at parade right?... anyone know how they're gonna make it now that one project is complete and the other towers still have to go up?

Cityplace is ONFYR!

Screaming Towers like ALLHELL and density toooo! The westend of the Toronto skyline is getting filled in and this is really improving the balance of the overall look of the core.. Now if you want to make it even better lets get those tower proposals in the entertainment district rocking for some depth.

The bust didn't last long enough. Changes were made but, I'm 99% sure they didn't follow through on the downsizing.

I had thought that they went from 44 down to 38, but decided to go back up to 42.

42 would make the list.
