The Well was commended by the Design Review Panel

12/25/2016

0 Comments

 
Large scale projects such as this one are subjected to the City of Toronto Design Review Panel.  Read what a panel of peers thinks about the project ... sorry, no longer available online.
The Design Review Panel is comprised of private sector design professionals – architects, landscape architects, urban designers and engineers – who provide independent, objective advice to city staff aimed at improving matters of design that affect the public realm. Advice is based on professional judgment, understanding of good design principles, conformance with the Official Plan and other related documents (design guidelines, secondary plans etc.), and the design quality of the subject project.

The Well at Front and Spadina - a mini-city within a city

8/19/2016

0 Comments

 
Although strictly not within the GDNA boundaries, the sheer magnitude of this development at Front and Spadina will make its presence felt throughout the downtown core.  The official site has some information but there is a plethora of images courtesy of Diamond Corp to be found on the urbantoronto.ca site (click on dataBase then filter on "the well").
