Pretty nice job there, I like the touch of using Quantom II as RoCP3
but One City Hall II will just be a giant glass box, not a mini- Jin Mao Tower. ![]() And here's the render for EQ2 @ STC, the tower is very average, I like the curved roof line but the bulky base is just horrid.

So i guess they are going with the 2 shorter towers (36, 34?) first and then the tallest one last, supposidely the next "tallest in scarborough"? (39) I've been eyeing that parcel of land on Consilium (sp?) drive just east of the McCowan overpass and the parking lot to the north of it... that area seems like a GREAT place to build since its closer to STC than the Ellipse Towers and it would help bridge both ends of the SC skyline. (ie) the Residences of the Consilium/Lee Centre with the EQ developments. Commercial at the bottom of the towers could help make that street more pedestrian friendly, it is practically lined up with towers already. Also... i have to admit that the Lee Centre/Consilium towers have pretty good bases for towers in the suburbs, and pretty good designs/quality. Scarborough Centre at night is pretty well lit up... hopefully downtown can be more accented by lighting soon.

I saw the rendering for "Boutique Condos" today, I saw it on a huge sign set up outside of the sales centre. There's also a nice model inside the sales centre but I didn't go in.
The building will have a red brick and glass balconies base with the top part glass and pre-cast. I think it reminds me of MoZo but a bit wider. I wish I had a digital camera with me to take a pic of the sign. If anyone wants to see it, the sales centre is on Simcoe, just south of Queen (And the hideous University Plaza), west of the site of the proposed Shangri-La Hotel, and north of the Ritz-site. That area will be really dense in a few years. |

It works. I wish these types of buildings would start to line the suburban avenues.
Where exactly is boutique condos located again?

Simcoe and Nelson. (South of Queen, west of University ave.) It's on the site of the doomed Axis condo development.BTW: Phase II of "Boutique" is said to be a taller and narrower tower. Last edited by Travis007; November 15th, 2005 at 11:31 PM. |

North Beach by Core Architects ![]() It has a nice massing and the right amount of density. Unique in a way too. I can't wait for more of these types of buildings to line the streets. It located midblock which is why it has a blank wall on both sides.
