It's hard to say exactly what would be considered worthwhile in the future. But if we go back 50 years to the heyday of brutalism, I don't think people would have anticipated many of those buildings being worth preserving in the future, either. But maybe Dana Porter Library or the original Math & Computer building are worthwhile--or the Ontario Science Centre. Your average condo or rental highrise being built today, likely not. Perimeter Institute? KPL renovation? RIM Park/Eastside Public Library? Who knows, but there will be some.
