I have entered in a contest to name the newest landmark condo development on the east side of downtown Toronto, located across the street from the Sony Centre for Performing Arts and the under-construction 58-story Libeskind 'L Tower' condo (same architect as the Denver Art Muesum). Toronto is currently going through a hug building boom.
The best name judged amongst from the top 10 votes will be awarded $5,000 and have the name on the building, while runners up will receive an iPad.
Unfortunately the contest has been infiltrated by many prank and not-so-serious entries. A radio station from the U.K. (1st place for "M00T") and Stephen Colbert fans were a few that got into the act, but there are still some decent entries to vote from.
So my entry is "
The Avant" which is a simple name that suggests forward thinking (avantgarde), and its forward location being close to the waterfront. I soon realized its Audi connection connection.

Thanks!
