We're going to need more closet space for all of these hats...

Very disappointing.

At least it'll get completed someday, unlike Canada Place...

I'd like to see this get built without any height reduction. Wishful thinking, maybe.

She's a beaut. I miss living near Groat. I'll have to park at the old museum grounds one of these days and take the greyhound for a walk around the area. It'll be nice to see the changes to the ravine/west Jasper vistas firsthand.

Outstanding shot! 😍

True, although I'd wager that most cosmopolitan and metropolitan centres have crap architecture right next door to gems. Private development is the wild west after all, and correct me if I'm wrong but it's only in recent years that design committees have become popular. We could do worse...

No kidding...older cities like Baltimore and Philly have given this Edmonton boy "row house envy" for many years. Edmonton's river flats are the perfect neighbourhoods for those structures.

Lessons to be learned? *cough*REGENCY*cough*

I am scared that this single tower will get built and then plans for the taller tower, podium and everything else will be scrapped after the entire site is levelled, leaving one squat little tower surrounded by yet another empty lot in the heart of the city. The saddest part is that this is not...

When I was a kid, my aunt lived in Jasper House. Her apartment was a ninth floor unit, with a gorgeous view of the river valley below. I used to visit for sleepovers. I'd bring pajamas and my 45 records, and sit in the window ledge and watch the city below. Nice to see this tower getting some...

The excess humidity this week makes the greenery in Rossdale look almost tropical lol. Nice to see some development in that area.

Hear, hear.

Can't keep up with what...tumbleweeds???!

Looks like there's some sort of outline or landing strip for the tower portion on the north side of the podium? More durable than sidewalk chalk, I guess?

Hope she doesn't easily offend ;) Traffic looks surprisingly orderly for Edmonton, at least in that photo, but then again it's not like they have much choice with only a single lane per direction. You've got a few bystanders keeping an eye on you, @Kaizen . Loving the canyon effect that is...

Wake me when there's a city.

Looby Dooby? /approves

You win the Internet today!

Agreed, these would be great gap fillers. I wouldn't be mad if Ice District Phase 2 turned out to be a bunch of 5-6 storey monoliths to take up all that empty space. By filling downtown adjacent holes with flat density like this, we could push high-density development to the empty lots in the...
