What’s so special about this cladding? Isn’t it just glass?
I just assumed everyone meant the lack of spandrels, the quality of the glass, and the overall clean design. ...and from reading this forum for a while, ...emphasis on the spandrels.
I put myself in the category or being pleasantly surprised at the quality. I'm not a fan of the overall design of the building, especially the width near the base, but cheap cladding would've really made it worse.

It would be a lot harder to hide this tower due to its size and girth if the cladding went pear shape than The Aura currently.

Just a couple, one from a distance, one a bit closer, taken yesterday, July 3rd, 2025:

This first one is a peek-a-boo, from the corner of Dundas W and Chestnum, 8 Elm photobombing on the right.
