I think the second half of this post is unfair. McMaster is still footing the Lion's share of the bill. It's going to be a $105 million dollar facility. Just because it is likely going to be cheaper for the city (only needing to contribute $20 million as a loan) then the $65 million needed to preserve this existing building, just for continued BoE use (nevermind more to adapt it as a medical facility) doesn't mean it's being done on the cheap.

Nor does this look to me as a generic corporate structure and even if it was, some more corporate presence in our core couldn't hurt either. It looks like a refreshing piece of post-modernism that is notably absent throughout most of the city.
