apparently ground-breaking for the office tower is this week, but they have been shoring the entire site for excavation for the last couple of weeks, so there is lots of speculation on what exactly is getting built as of right now. (the general consensus, though not confirmed, is that it will be the office tower and the base)

Wow ... so if you're heading eastbound on the Gardiner, it will literally seem as if you're driving directly into this building. Awesome lol.

10 york will block that view, it will seem like your car will be split in half by the point of it! lol. sort of stupid that they are going for a branding spot that will just be blocked by another tower a year or two after this one is built.

also, could a mod change the title to "Harbour Plaza Residences" instead of "90 Harbour"?

I wish the office building was black like TD Centre. This area is in desperate need of some variation in colour and/or materials.

White would look great too, much like the cladding on One Park Place in Regent Park. I don't know how it will 'weather' after many years, but it would definitely be interesting looking on the skyline in all white.

The white cladding on that Regent Park building is a pleasant surprise.
