    The delays, cost, legal, and government constraints that the museum has faced is an even greater testament to how incredible the construction of the pyramids were. Imagine the construction of the pyramids before communication, planes, trucks, and cranes.

    That big ugly freeway viaduct directly adjacent to Nile Park makes me want to vomit. It would be great if the development paid more homage to Cairo's historic walkability over of its current car problems. I hope there's a new metro line either planned or under construction to connect with the Museum, as it's over 8km from the nearest Metro station, and a reliable rapid transit connection would drive greater tourism.

    It looks like a mall or airport terminal. I can appreciate the geometric and perspective considerations made for the pyramids in orienting and building the site, but it’s not at all appealing.

    Hey, you forgot to mention how most of these buildings will never be completed. Skyrocketing inflation, crippling taxation, nightmarish traffic gridlock, unabated immigration, unaffordable housing, no cultural life to speak of, restaurants closing left and right, empty shopping malls, empty office blocks, construction at every corner 12 months of the year, a severely depressed and paranoid population, zero job prospects, no innovation, massive criminal networks. Other than that, yeah Toronto has tall towers.

    Such a shame, most Toronto residents hate them, I know I drove Lyft part time and people complained! Way too many, too much development, and not enough services and infrastructure to support them. Also we’ve had more immigration and more development, yet housing costs have increased overall, not benefiting average citizens, only greedy developers. A change is needed…

    • @MegaBuilds5280
      @MegaBuilds5280 День тому

      Thanks for sharing that. It's tough when there’s so much development but not enough services to support it. It’s clear that more needs to be done to benefit everyone, not just developers. Hearing this from someone who drives Lyft and talks to residents really highlights the real-life issues. Change is definitely needed!

    • @MegaBuilds5280
      @MegaBuilds5280 День тому

      The triangles on the facade are actually a deliberate design choice inspired by the iconic pyramids of Egypt. The architects wanted to blend ancient Egyptian elements with modern architectural styles. We understand that design preferences can vary, and we appreciate your perspective.

    6:37 It is 150 degrees Fahrenheit today, lets go to the museum where it is 77 degrees cooler in the building thanks to the GLASS WINDOWS ? move to Siberia where it is only 118 degrees Fahrenheit.

    • @MegaBuilds5280
      @MegaBuilds5280 День тому

      Thanks for the comment! The glass windows are designed to let in natural light while keeping the interior temperature comfortable, but the cooling effect is actually due to the building's overall design and advanced climate control systems. We'll make sure to clarify that in the future.
