The contrast between this building and the MEC store about to open in downtown Toronto is pretty amazing. Same goes for the reactions to the building on the thread. Over in Toronto the new MEC store on Queen is regarded as the worst abomination to ever be built in our fair city. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. This one is shaping up fairly nicely.
No, it really isn't. Its worst offence is that it's boring and pedestrian. I mean this to everybody in the nicest way possible, stop being so dramatic. Life will go on.
