It's moreso warping I'd be concerned about as it appears these are only anchored at two points and appear fairly thin - hopefully they've mitigated this.

Any treatment would help with warping / cracking as well I think.

The wood we used on Junction 9 was sourced from a 100 year old granary in southern Alberta so it was well acclimatized and virtually guaranteed not to warp or check. That's how we were able to leave it untreated and allow it to grey naturally over time. Very cost effective and sustainable and sure enough, the wood fins are as straight as the day they went up!

starting to think it was a bit of a missed opportunity not having more ground floor retail facing the park, like the north side of center ave. perfect for a street of sidewalk cafes. prob would need further densification to make that viable though. especially these days.
The building looks great at night.

The signage recess is a bit of a bruise on the skin.

Would have been cool if the signage was painted on the brick like in the olden days. Turned out great overall though

On the rndsqr twitter account they have been hinting that some sort of artwork will be going in there, hopefully they don't simply mean painted versions of the logos.

The curved window cut on on the corner is very cool.
