Towers of Gold

[edit]

The article says: The use of gold foil on the building's windows was famously referenced in the title of Walter Stewart's bestselling critique of Canadian banking, Towers of Gold, Feet of Clay.

Does anyone know for sure that the title of the book refers to this building? I had always thought it referred to the Royal Bank Plaza which is very gold, much taller and in a much more obvious location that the Royal Bank Building. The book was also written 5 years after the plaza was constructed. Cjrother 03:07, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
