6/10, never liked it. Its only redeeming factor is the lighting, which is quite nice.

You know what? I have to agree on the aging well.
It's a huge icon for Toronto and Canada.

10/10 if for nothing else that in the '70's it was a marvel of Engineering, and its revolutionary design broke ground for other supertall structures to be built. Might not be
the tallest in the world anymore, but can't take away the 35 year run it has had as the biggest man on campus! :D

wow, this thing has aged so well...the observation deck looks incredible and every bit as good as thirty years ago. and the best thing is that the design seems to be timeless - it fits in with the rest of toronto, no matter that went on since it's construction. 9/10 for epicness!

I love it because it's tall, because of its lighting, and I would visit it in a heartbeat if I could, but it's not for the faint of heart like my step-dad.:)

Easily my favourite. Very good proportions, very nice and compact looking observation deck, and of course hiiiiigh. Been on it when i was a kid.

Didn't used to like this tower much, but it's grown on me to the point that I couldn't imagine it not being there. The light show is absolutely outstanding each night. World's tallest for over 3 decades isn't too bad either.
