Love Aura and the Ice Condos. Don't like Trump at all. Something about it I can not put my finger on.

That's alright. Not many Torontonians like Trump either. Definitely one of the ugliest and most aesthetically controversial towers built in the history of the city.

One Bloor and Aura I think are great. Aura looks beastly and it's only a podium!

It feels like Trump has taken forever to clad this last upper portion.

Trump is barely noticeable. No one will complain long, and it's spire is sure to cause pandemonium when it's lit up at night. The spire structure is beautiful in itself. With the cladding applied, all bets are off.


I can't tell you how much I'm loving the spire.

Yeah Trump is forgettable but makes a marginal difference in the skyline. It will fade into the urban fabric and everyone will be busy talking about the next prominent skyscrapers to emerge. That's why you gotta love Toronto's dynamic building boom. We're on the next one...

We're still waiting for the Yorkville supertalls to emerge. Might be a while as information escaped pretty early on in the process.

Be patient.

I know the Toronto section is new but I've been on this site all the time this week and never knew this section was created until about nine hours ago.
