Jury Comments
Respectful of the historic Yonge Street commercial strip without being dogmatic in terms of setbacks and
scale, this iconic tower is rooted in a sophisticated site plan that optimizes pedestrian amenity. The
entry is materially integrated with the park to create a seamless transition and visually enlarge the size of the park.
