Cool, thanks!. perfect building for it. I wonder if they are replacing the glass? Having it tinted like that probably is okay for the guests, cuz they get more privacy, but man that 80's mirrored glass is awful from the outside.
Maybe they're shooting for 12 and hoping for 8? I would be okay with this same vision but pared down to 8 floors, but if it went in at 12 I'd be okay with that too, mainly because if you're going to do 12 floors in Inglewood, that's the location to do it.
On of the guys, I think it might have been Surrealplaces? was attacked or robbed at that intersection years back. It wasn't the kind of place you'd hang around.
It looks good on the inside, much the same as all new gen arenas. The one thing I don't care for is the amount of gap between the lower and upper bowl. The other new gen arenas I've been to (Vancouver, Toronto and St Paul) have better flow between upper and lower bowl.. Rogers Arena upper bowl...
I had my doubts about this one when I first saw the renderings, but I'm liking it more as it goes along. We don't have a lot of building s in Calgary with curved massing.
Glad to see that area getting some love. It's about time. Surprising that in a downturned economy, land that wouldn't be considered very desirable (near train tracks) is getting developed. I would have expected it the other way around.
