I wonder if they will fix the name of City, which dropped City-"TV" from their name about a decade back.

I hope not. Leaving it as-is is a nice throwback to better days.

The more of this wretched thing that can be covered the better.

Giving it the ol' 10 Dundas treatment.
 
They actually changed it back to Citytv again in 2019.
You're right, they did! I somehow missed that. I prefer it to be honest, but it seems a strange choice in an age where traditional "TV" is less of an emphasis for companies such as Rogers. I'm just surprised someone in the boardroom didn't say "...no, no we can't have TV in the name again, as we offer a multi-platform screen service via various different distribution means. The brand is City."
 
CityTV and OMNI have left the building. They've moved to Rogers' 1MP campus as of today. A bit of a hole in Sankofa.

Was going to ask if the studios were on the ground floor....given the need for ceiling heights. Found the permit:

The former Yonge & Dundas City/Omni building is going to be occupied by TMU (aka Ryerson) students. Rogers is pitching in some funding for the University to occupy this space. How much is anyone's guess.
Long story short, no, it will not be restored as an Olympic building. 😂
