I can't be thankful enough for how this turned out. It was looking so dreadful in the renderings, but in reality is a pretty solid design. I like how the white stripes tend stand out at night even though they aren't lit.

- Start date
Another pic of the lighting. I don't think I've never seen it with alternate colors on the lighting spine.

I was skeptical at first, but it's turned out much better than expected.

Anybody here work on the original high rise?

I would guess probably not. Assuming someone was 20 years old when working on it, it would put the person’s age around 71.
We might have some people that age, but not many. It would be cool if someone here had actually worked on it.

A Dale and Associates was the firm working on it. Bill Milne who designed the Calgary tower with A Dale and Associates may have been involved. He has since passed away I believe. Chandler/Kennedy may have been involved as well, as they were merging at some point that time. not sure.

I don't think it has been mentioned, but the colours on the LEDs of this tower are synchronized with those of the Calgary Tower.

That's cool. I guess you've seen a lot of changes in downtown Calgary over the years!

Looks like they're starting the entrance work on 9 Ave. So glad they're doing that too as I hate navigating the obstacle course it is now every week!
