Consideration : Waterfront Residence Inn
This past month, a new high-rise hotel opened across Queensway Bridge from downtown. While certainly more memorable than other Marriot Residence Inns across the nation, it does not completely dispense with the “anywhere” airport adjacent aesthetic. The city facing architecture is emphasized by a dynamic glass element, with a grid of punched openings transitioning to the utterly blank port facing side. Muted primary colors and modest variations in the wall plane provide some interest in the building facades. The austere building design allows one to imagine a more dynamic feature on the skyline with just a half dozen adjustments. Instead it is left for your consideration.
