Window replacement about 40% done. They still got the North and East sides to do plus the middle section on the West side (see below)

I don't think the tinted look goes well with the architecture of the building.

The tint is definitely functionality for the tenants over architectural aspect.
I also think the tint looks good though

I dont mind them, but just wish the olive would stay. When this goes grey/black/white it will lose its character, design and become yet another generic tower.

I hope the sculpture continues to have the white background so the design and colour of the sculpture stands out. Black background would destroy the visual impact of the sculpture. As to the Olive Green - I have mixed thoughts as it looks tired - but maybe its just needs to be painted the same colour with some metallic silver particles?

Parking lot next to existing Jasper House (12021 Jasper Ave) is applying to rezone for a tower. Going to EDC July 19, 2022.

We see Toronto on one side and Miami on the other, interesting concept.

They should get rid of the "Toronto side" completely

Good lord that's the Homer Car of current tower design.

Although the design does look like a bit of a mishmash and is quite busy, I am going to hold off on my final opinion as these renderings don't show a whole lot of detail. I do like the overall concept however and the fact that they are wanting to create a look that we haven't seen much of in Edmonton yet. Also, another 200+ units for the area, 4 CRUs and a restaurant/patio on the Victoria promenade facing south/west? Yes please!

If this tower ever happens, I'll be REALLY happy. West Oliver is definitely becoming an "Uptown" and I like it. with everything proposed and under construction, it'll end up being one of the best places for urban living not just in Edmonton, but AB in general.

I like it!
Though I can already hear the NIMBY crowd:
"It's too big!"
"I will lose my sunshine!"
"This will impact car traffic!"
"This will impact parking!"
"That parking lot is too important to me!"
"My property values will go down!"
"I'm in Jasper House, and people in the new building will not respect my privacy!"
Did I miss anything?
