ABOUT THE PROJECT
Located at the northwest corner of Bathurst and Fleet Streets, the design of the tower recognizes the importance of the corner location by using intersecting curved glass surfaces, while the podium reflects the architecture of the existing buildings in the area, in particular the historically designated warehouse building to the east. The Malibu is an integral part of the new Fort York neighbourhood, created as a result of a sustained effort by the City Planning Department, working together with the developers, and giving new life to this historical part of the City.
Comments
Just awful. I agree what ever happend to naming our buildings after things Canadian. What is with stupid obsession of places afar?
aren't they building another one of these next door? Who is purchasing these?
Why does so much in Toronto seem to want to be sadly reminiscent of somewhere else? What does 'Malibu' have even remotely to do with the capital of Ontario, Canada?
(insert generic comment about generic building here)
aren't there any trees in malibu?
A not-so-Jolly Green Giant. Dated before it was even completed. Forgettable and regrettable.
Any first guesses as to what is going to go into the bottom of this building as a retail space? Drycleaners? Rabba? Pizza Hut? Ugly building... about as memorable as that time when you were 7 and your sister made you laugh so hard you..... well I won't say it. Lets just leave it.. this building is forgettable.
