The street level of the building and the pedestrian alleyway are nice but what I meant by it having an outdated design is the bottom 7 floor section facing the 12th ave, 4th st intersection(the edge of the building facing central memorial park). The colors are quite bland and the design is...

Are they finally buildings those? There's been talks of this for a long time if I'm not mistaken.

It's insane how tall this thing is even though it still has 14 more floors to go.

It'd be great if the river pathway had any food places at all or at least temporary booths/food trucks during the warm months.

Tbh the design for this one does feel quite dated but hopefully the street level of the building will make up for it with density.

Sorry about the frequency of the updates, but one more floor just got finished. 27 more to go

9 floors done, 28 more to go.

A very clean(but not sterile) design. Actually looks quite "livable" despite being modern. I especially like the rock paneling they have going on and the little patches of grass in front of the bench areas on the second pictures. Very nice little details.

Damn that is one busy looking construction site. Can't say I've ever seen that much machinery in a single space. Definitely good news.

30 more floors to go

They're moving at a very good pace in this project

Another floor, another construction progress pic. 30.5 more floors to go

If anyone's wondering, this is what's currently there. Definitely a massive improvement in both design and density.

Honestly, the hat isn't that terrible, especially not in the context of East Village. Even if it's not that great on it's own, it fits in well in terms of color and massing with the rest of the buildings around it.

Looks like progress is moving at an okay pace. Great to see this going up.

They definitely should've done the front side the same way they did the back. The backside is nothing to write home about either but then it at least doesnt stand out as much. The design looks incredibly dated altogether though, looks straight from the 70s-80s.

24 floors done, onto the 25th. Maybe they'll start installing the glass when people have already moved in and started living here lol

Straight from the project website but dont tell anyone ;) https://www.strategicgroup.ca/commercial/office/alberta/calgary/downtown/one/

6th floor done, onto the 7th

The location for this tower is amazing and I have no doubt the view from the apartments will be even better. Really hoping they start on it soon.
