yah something is amiss...first image shows the entire plaza and how the new podium will merge with the original proposed tower?? Whereas the second image shows the new tower podium in the foreground but not the background. Unclear to me why you wouldn't have a more cohesive design between the 2 towers

If I had to make a guess, I'd say the first MG2 render is probably an older concept one, and the second render is a newer one

Love it, comes with 17th and 4st. These 2 projects make Calgary more attractive

Good catch, so for sure different tower designs. I thought it was the same design, but a better rendering, but I see in your post quite a few things are different on the tower portion.

So let me get this right, with the remaining amount of units, we’re either going to see

a) TWO towers both taller than 17th and 4th (which would make both of them the two tallest residential buildings in Calgary)

Or

b) we possibly see one of the towers pushing beyond 200m. Maybe they try for height record in Calgary , who knows?

I hope we see the project through its full completion. Weve been dry on height projects since office towers lost its demand. Now we could see 3 towers in Calgary with height rivalling those office towers

When do you think these towers start construction? Next spring?

Spring seems reasonable, can spend the winter demolishing the existing buildings and killing the utilities that serve it.

I very much like the primary image they are using on their website, which shows the whole plaza....but were essentially looking at three different podium/tower designs across the 3 photos...very difficult to tell what is what.

"Render" of what two ~190m towers could look like on the site

The more buildings blocking Bromley, the better!

Doesn’t UW live in Bromley?

I will happily sacrifice my incredible view for a development this beautiful.

Or I’ll just move to the west side of the tower. Also it’s called First on Tenth now, not Bromley Square

Exciting stuff!!

I used to live there like 15 years ago. The views from Bromley are great, but that is hands down the ugliest tower in all of downtown. The interiors were actually pretty brutal when I lived there too (think like 20 layers of paint over stipple on the f'n demising walls!), renos started while I lived there, so rent increases chased me out.

I find the brown brick building right across the street from it (where Bottlesxrew Bills is) to be 100x uglier form the outside. Either way, two hideous building right beside each other.

I find the tower portion much less offensive, but the 8 storey parkade is pretty awful!
