Canadian developer Westbank Corp. has finished the reconstruction of Danish firm Bjarke Ingels Group’s 2016 Serpentine Pavilion in downtown Toronto. Standing 14 meters (46 feet) tall, 12 meters (39 feet) wide, and 27 meters (88.5 feet) long, the fiberglass “unzipped structure” will showcase large-scale models of 10 Westbank projects in an exhibition called “Unzipped,” according to the website. The exhibition will be free and open to the public from Sept. 15 through November 2018.
