    Looking REALLY good. I'm just a bit worried about the east / west sides. They look a bit....Port Royal.

    Sorry, I don't like giving up perfectly fine space where no "infill" is required just to satisfy a height fetish. Unlike some, I am more than willing to sacrifice tall buildings for proper urban development and nothing about this tower makes sense from an urban planning standpoint. While it may be "just" a small square, it is one of the only public spaces (albeit small) within three blocks or so. And no, Cabot Square isn't close enough, nor does it have enough association with the Bell Center crowds. Personally, I would have loved to see the city expand the space into 1/2 of the parking lot in front of the Bell center and reserve the other half for development. The parking lot is already used as an area for "tailgates" in the playoffs as well as other, smaller events. Develop that whole area and you risk taking part of that Montreal "vibe" out of the area.

    Oscar Peterson. Expect it to have the same "overtones" as the SAX on Nun's Island.

    Neither is this building....

    And that was supposed to make me want to keep that white elephant? Methinks not.

    Someone needs to update the first post in this thread with all of the pics....

    Looks quite different there.

    Too bad about the location and I HIGHLY doubt that kind of architecture / design will come cheap....certainly not $80 million, that's for sure.

    Remember, much of the Toronto market is based upon speculation. Go into any newly finished condo project that's been sold at 75% or more and you will see more than half the units empty.

    I'm in love....I just think it is a bit too close to the street. I personally like seeing buildings set back from the street a bit but that's just me....

    Good lord. It looks like a prison.

    Almost 100% sure that's a Sami distribution center. There are a TON of loading docks facing Beauharnois.

    The Projects @ Boisbriand.

    Bingo. Square footage has also been drastically reduced.
  15. SKYMTL
    Not anymore.

    Has anyone checked out what we thought might have been a sales office? What was it?

    I have a friend that used to live in the Phase 1. They ARE slummy apartments. The condo next to him had 8 Sri Lankans living in a 4 1/2, a large very loud family of Pakistanis moved in across the hall and there were serious problems with water leaks on a monthly basis. Needless to say, the value of his condo plummeted and he ending up selling it last year for about the same amount he bought it for.

    They seem to be running out of names for all of these banal, cookie cutter projects....

    Évolo 1 - 31 étages (2013)

    Unfortunately. I really don't hope it turns out that way since I personally think that Vancouver has one of the ugliest skylines in all of North America. Way too much repetition.

    Absolutely great news!!! Now what we need is more doctors to actually work in all of these state of the art facilities that are being built.
  21. SKYMTL
    Good lord.
  22. SKYMTL
    Totally agree with many of those points. We can see that Devimco's areas lack urban planning while the Bassins project really feels like a community.
  23. SKYMTL
    Very generous layouts for the townhouses. On the other hand, the exterior architecture looks to be really, really ugly.
  24. SKYMTL
    AMAZING!!!!!!! The City of Montreal should exercise this as well! That way abortions like the Griffix would never be built in their current form.
  25. SKYMTL
    I think there are two main issues influencing design at this point: the ridiculous 20 floor height limit and a general lack of funds. You can't apply all that much in terms of architectural interest when the majority of units are going for under $350K.
