Uh, no.

A further interesting (non-maintenance) aspect of the contract: Astral had to ensure all moral rights in the designs were waived. I wonder if the City received such waivers before they modified Dundas Square against the designers' @BrownStorey wishes? https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2018/03/08/architect-of-yonge-dundas-square-describes-it-as-extraordinarily-ugly.html

Keeping facades is the absolutely lowest response - as Alsop says, it’s’urban taxidermy’. No reason why housing can’t have excellent design. Losing the setback requirement provides more area for the envelope and gives latitude to bring quality to the public realm.

@BrownStorey We need liveable spaces that are "anywhere", they are a particular place. We can do so much.

But dont impose things like keeping the facade, or even affordability, in the name of preservation, because it works against todays needs.
