Aco Releases New Computer Modelling Of The Visual Attack On Queens Park

The postcard view of Ontario's Parliament Buildings won't be the same after the developers finish building condos on Bloor Street; Here is our latest press release and a link to the latest study: The Architectural Conservancy of Ontario (ACO) is asking the Government of Ontario to put in place emergency legislation to protect the view of the silhouette of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario (LAO) from development appearing in the background. Once emergency protection is established, the Province should work with the City of Toronto to further develop the legal framework needed at both levels of government to protect the dignity of Ontario's most important ceremonial space. Because of our concerns following the recent OMB decision on 21 Avenue Road, ACO asked the Centre for Landscape Research at the University of Toronto (CLR), and urban design firm du Toit Allsopp Hillier (DTAH) to examine the recommended new heights policies in Tall Buildings, Inviting Change to Downtown - a consultant study prepared for the City of Toronto.

I honestly don't get this. Preserving a silhouette? The background buildings produced on the postcard do not remove or alter the silhouette in any way however, I am shocked by the lack of architecture in the new buildings illustrated in the rendering. That is what we should be protesting!
