Frank Gehry is back in Toronto − at least via Zoom. At 91, the world’s most famous architect is actively working on a major project in the city where he was born: two towers on King Street West that are the biggest and the tallest buildings of his career.
After more than eight years of discussion, this complex project is advancing. The developers say they will begin sales on its condo apartments in 2022.

The Frank Gehry-designed towers for a massive downtown Toronto development have come a long way since they were first proposed in 2012.
Gone are the dramatic curves of the initial Mirvish+Gehry Toronto plan — the latest design updates propose two stainless steel-clad 'stacked-boxes' towers on King Street West, 308 meters (1,010 feet) and 266.5 meters (874 feet) tall respectively.
