What looks to be some core samples being taken on the south side

I am hearing that this will be 10 storeys above ground of usable space (possibly higher with mechanical?). It will essentially replace the floorprint of the existing west wing, flush with the medical sciences building with connections into its 7 storeys of lab and office space.

Technically it will be called the "Temerty Building". Perhaps need a thread title change.

The new building will replace a building that results in a boring dead zone at a vibrant gateway to the campus. It would be amazing if it met the walkway at King's College Circle with a coffee shop, restaurant, library, study spaces, and/or an academic services office. Who could I contact at U of T to express these comments?

Lots of windows and lobby spaces are envisioned with study spaces throughout.
