Looks amazing! Way more high end than I ever expected we'd see at this end of King Street.
IMO this will be one of the Region's most iconic mixed-use developments.

Instead we get 4 floors of above grade parking. Classic development for this area and this developer.
So you do that, and we lose the podium with the wave. Cue more complaints about uninteresting design.
Anyway, if we don't want parking podiums, we need to change the zoning regulations. Can't blame the developers for taking advantage of them.
Is that interesting design or eccentric design? I'm not seeing any relationship between the curvy glass podium curtain and the rest of the structure. I'm also not a fan of the skybridge thingy. Is it intended to house the buildings' common elements?
