Why is a brick mid-rise depressing? Robert D is right there are a lot of downsides to the glass curtain walls ... nobody knows what all those condos in downtown Toronto will function like in 25 years. They aren't designed to be energy efficient or easy to maintain, and condo fees are already high for most units. Mid-rise brick can be done well ... we just aren't used to it as most of ours were built in the 1960s in the unadorned slab-block style.
