The current state of the building. Cleaned up, but neither beautiful nor heritage.
The render. Very different. Still it will look a bit odd downtown, with a large parking lot in front of the building.
Interior shot 1: the interior columns actually look quite good, and after the clean-up it looks decent and bright enough, with the large windows on the N side.
Interior shot 2: further away from those side windows, it's much less bright, but the skylights for help somewhat
Finally, some external work being completed on the 132 Queen St S building (previously Schlichters). Thought I read somewhere this work was expected to be completed last fall? Anyways, they have crews out this morning removing the old exterior cladding (in the none brick areas), and they have had crews this week hooking up the new roof AC units.
