Walking into the AGO for the first time since the renovation, I was really skeptical that the building was even finished. It seemed like just few days before that it looked like there was a whole piece missing out of the side, and scaffolding was everywhere.
I was very pleasantly surprised though by the building, sure there was a few displays and corners that were not remotely set up yet but the building as a whole seemed relatively complete. This aside from the amazing winding staircase in the center which would have been interesting to walk on, but was not finished being constructed.
My favorite part of the new AGO had to be the gallery that was the long hall following the completely windowed side of the gallery, it was the one gallery that made you really feel and see, and know what kind of a building you were in, it also contained a few very interesting pieces using these huge tree trunks.
