For what it's worth, we do have some decent architecture here. Patkau did the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery, the John M. Harper Branch of WPL and Perimeter Institute by Saucier+Perrotte and Teeple (I was happy to have worked with them heh), CIGI by Barton Myers Associates and a number of great small projects scattered around Cambridge. But when it comes to towers, we have some real bad work. I think the issue is that most of the work is done by local firms and no offence to them, but they're fairly substandard. Our best has probably been by Edge or MartinSimmons (if you forget about the Gaslight District at least). As more projects get built, I think we'll see more out of town developers/architects work on things here, such as Station Park.
