I guess. It still seems very slow to me.

Parts of the façade are finally starting to shape up. I think it looks handsome.

The TD Bank building was for sale as a development site. So hopefully something goes up there soon. What a great site for an interesting tower, given the shape of the building footprint.

I agree. Let’s keep our fingers crossed!

It would be nice if this piece of junk comes down!

They should really redesign a modern court house with a tower on top. They could finance the redesign by selling the tower portion to a developer.

I am not seeing the variety of fiber reinforced concrete panels as list here in the color/material sample selections. I do not see the perforated aluminum panels either: but they may be there.

> Take a look at these “facade components” and that may explain the delay. This type of richly detailed facade is a brilliant idea for making ‘stand out’ Architecture while keeping a rather simple (boxy) form factor on the overall shape of the building. They are using what I might refer to as ‘jewel box’ material to intricately detail that facade. Very Nice.

This still looks great; despite being somewhat monolithic looking.

I am also noticing the brick building to the right with the word “lawyers” on the facade: wondering why those windows are so deep-set. That may have been a design decision, or a desire to provide a comfy perch for roosting pigeons. 😛 🤣
