Most definitely. I hated this project for awhile - not glad to see I was right in my initial assessment - but the only thing this does is bring more density.

Certainly not the nicest project, but it's still has its unique features (so not the standard RLA design) and adds significant density to Vanier to one day justify... checks notes... no transit improvements ever.
So the 28 story tower is going up next, and it's a full blown excavation already!!

After seeing the result of Tower #1, I can't get too excited for this next one. I suppose the silver lining of course is much needed housing and density to Vanier, but man what an eyesore this cluster will be.

Wait until a rainy day, it looks like those crumbling commie blocks in Poland already

From this angle it doesn't look that bad, the balcony glass does make it look better. The north face of the building is by far the ugliest side, you really see how ugly it is driving south on the parkway.
I can live with the tower. It's the podium that really bothers me to the point where I want to scream. They really should have done red brick. Even red brick looking pre-cast could have been acceptable.

Walked by it this weekend the podium is so bad. It literally looks unfinished.

They knew they could get away with it cause it’s Vanier.
