L Tower Looking Up

L Tower Construction Update: 

Another capture from my live blog tonight. L Tower looks so awesome from this angle, I can really imagine how it will look now when it's complete. It will create a true iconic building for Toronto. This is the building that we have been waiting for so long, a building that makes people in this city appreciate great architecture. Daniel Libeskind, has created a legend. I thank him tonight.


Hong Kong Style Density: The Model For Toronto?


Would Hong Style Density be a good model for Toronto Skyscraper growth, and urban renewal. Mind you that Hong Kong, and Chinese Cities seem to have a far more chaotic layout and pace than gentle Canadian Cities. However, one has to marvel at the efficiency of Hong Kong, and other Chinese Cities when it comes to getting people around town. Now, I understand that the days of thousands of people riding down the streets of Chinese cities on bicycles have long gone, as a newly rich China has been using its new-found wealth to purchase luxury vehicles for the masses, it’s us here in the supposedly old rich countries that are the ones resorting to using bikes to get around our cities.
