Even if we can't have the beautiful mass timber building here for the sake of project viability, there's got to be a way to make these less cookie cutter. I'm reminded of 9 Shortt St, which are quite simple in form, but made beautiful by their striking colours and intersecting lines.

I feel like there's an opportunity to improve this revised design with some very simple colour changes and decorative elements.
 
Ok..... second time I've mentioned Jack (from BlogTO) this week............

He's obviously trying to catch up to UT on several files.......

I have to say though, I do like his headline for this one:

Breathtaking Toronto proposal swapped for boring design in monumental bait-and-switch​

****

His first paragraph is also worthy of note:

Much as I'm loathe to, I will provide a link seeing as I borrowed the quotes: https://www.blogto.com/real-estate-toronto/2025/10/295-lake-shore-blvd-e-toronto/
