Not much change on the east elevation, but still looks good in the sun

I really hate that row of windows/mesh along the top. As more of the tiles get installed, that row really distracts from the nice smooth waves pattern. At the least, the row should have either been all mesh or all windows, not both.

Is it windows or mechanical?

Agreed. I think they should have went with all mesh, the windows to me just look "off" compared to the rest of the design. They also don't appear nearly as prominent in the renderings.

They should also renovate the exteriors of the TELUS Convention Centre and the Marriott, which currently look outdated. Additionally, it would be great if Aspen could work on revitalizing the dead complex area around the Calgary Tower.

Hopefully not Aspen.
If this is in regards to the passenger rail project, they were talking about locating the station in the Beltline near 10 Ave/4 St SE, not at the old passenger station.

Ugh, those mesh wave tiles really distract from the overall appearance even more now. Kind of wish they just built a whole new building from the ground up.

Maybe just me but the waves make it seem like the building is moving.
