It's a typical Toronto compromise that doesn't achieve either goal. Build a modern building that fully meets the needs of modern Toronto. Not a popular suggestion in these parts, but 3 floor rudimentary housing stock on Yonge had its day.
That building on St. Joseph? Preserve it properly or knock it down. Retaining one wall and calling it preservation is just ridiculous. Who are they trying to fool?
