Frank Gehry’s Latest Plan to Remake Toronto’s King St is Best Yet – Hume

 

“The latest offering, though equally Gehryesque, explores new architectural territory. The embrace of complexity is no less evident, but now things feel more organic, integrated and fluid. Looking carefully at the towers, one sees brief moments of Euclidian order, but for the most part, these three skyscrapers — 82, 84 and 86 storeys — are loose and asymmetrical. Their undulating surfaces move in and out to a rhythm at once urban and idiosyncratic.” – Christopher Hume, Toronto Star
