I was wondering about the two potential sites.

Emblem’s rental site on the opposite side of John from Design District seems like it may be a rental start, and Rebecca Condos seems like they want to start on a shorter version of their project before year end as well.

Additionally, seven 25+ storey towers have been constructed since 2016. Ten to eleven 25+ storey towers is satisfactory to good.

If we reduce it to 15+ storey tower completions since 2016, the number rises to 17. 20 buildings downtown in ten years is a boom.

15-storey building completions since 2016:
  • 10 Bay Residence (10 Bay St S) – 30 stories (2023)
  • 150 Main Street West – 15 stories (2018)
  • 1 Jarvis (1 Jarvis St) – 15 stories (2024)
  • 75 James Street South – 34 stories (2026)
  • Acclimation Condos (181 James St N) – 16 stories (2019)
  • Apex Condos (235 Main St W) – 23 stories (2026)
  • City Square – Phase 2 (90 Charlton Ave W) – 17 stories (2017)
  • Cobalt Luxury Residences (45 King St E) – 15 stories (2023)
  • KIWI Condos (212 King William St) – 15 stories (2023)
  • Marquee Residence (20 George St) – 32 stories (2020)
  • Platinum Condos (15 Queen St S) – 24 stories (2023)
  • Regency on Main (140 Main St W) – 25 stories (2016)

Why use AI when it's completely filled with inaccuracies? This list is laughable. Certainly your point would stand better with proper information attached to it.

It’s also counted Cobalt, which became The King William, and gotten the storeys wrong to boot. Apparently the precast monstrosity at 220 Cannon East has been teleported to 220 George (???), and given three storeys it doesn’t have (it’s actually 12). None of the City Square phases rise higher than 11 storeys. Acclamation at 16 storeys is farcically wrong, it has half that. Didn’t count the LiUNA student residence on James at Rebecca at 20 storeys, either.

Great showing from our technological saviour, indeed…

AI sucks. Fact check before posting, guys

It would have taken much longer to research every completed building since 2015. I am not familiar personally with every building constructed yet, so I am not going to be able to verify the list.

You are being a snob and patronizing me because my post was 90% accurate instead of 100%.

AI will continue to advance rapidly as it has since 2022 and those that don't adopt it will be left behind.

I am a busy man, I'm not going to spend half an hour fact checking how tall each building is and when they were completed. A 90% accurate list is acceptable for a public discussion board filled with non-experts, don't be a patronizing snob.

Why did you feel the need to continue attacking my post when users on the last page already corrected and addressed the inaccuracies. I understand why, you and @Jolene needed to stroke your intellectual egos by signaling you are "above AI".

As you used AI to compile that list, (as the Apex-non-starter and King William/Cobalt errors indicate), had you been upfront about that in the post, the other members could have served as your fact checkers, but not so grudgingly. That would have made your point more palatable and understandable from the get-go. Thanks!

You're chill, thanks for the tip, I'll put a disclaimer for AI sourced info in the future.

Lol, sure. I just want correct information. We can leave it at that :)
 
Anyway, for some human sourced content - I took a few pics of these towers today. Really starting to pop through the skyline at certain angles.

Unfortunately, I think this might be another case of an okay/solid tower(s) and pretty brutal podium. So far it has all the grace of the parkade that went up at Walnut and Jackson.
