I love this perspective. Can't wait to see it completed from the same view and same sunlight angle.

It's cool that it's above grade...starting to look like something now...

caltrane74 · #87 Posted **Mar 11, 2011, 4:51 PM**

yeah, I was having a hard enough time making it out.

Should rise pretty quick given it's very small footprint.

Forming here looks like it's beginning on the second level.

It will be cool to see the Freedom Tower esque base take shape.

I agree. I can't wait to see the whole thing go up.

This is Toronto's answer to the absolute world in Mississauga.

Yes I agree...this is actually one of my favorite buildings going up in North America right now...I am surprised how little chatter I am hearing it!

There was a ton of interest initially. At one point it seemed destined for cancelation and then the 'boot' got chopped followed by a lengthy delay. Perhaps fatigue set in for the many admirers. I think people will come back around once this building begins to rise.

The disappointment over the boot feature is overblown. This is still a wonderful design.

Yes I think so too. Are they also going to be updating and renovating the Sony Center as well?
I am not from Toronto so could someone tell me what current use does the Sony Center offer?

It's a performing arts centre with capacity of 3,000 seats. Alicia Keys and Elvis Costello are 2 of the names booked in the next 2 months, but plays host to a very varied list of performers. There's also an art gallery in there. I believe the Sony Centre just finished major renovations to restore it to the elegance and grandeur of the original O’Keefe Centre.

Oh ok....that is great to hear! It looks like a really cool venue!
