Glass starting to go in...
Didn't realize just how massive this is. And it's weird to think that just last time I was in Calgary(last summer), the site largely didn't have much on it.
The building has a new look since the early design renderings were released due to a change in the exterior screen material. The project team made the adjustment to address anticipated challenges with the constructability of the original screen. The new design and material offer a local fabrication solution and improved long-term maintenance efficiencies while maintaining the original striking design aesthetic.
the idea of a courtyard in there is ridiculous, kicking it in the middle of a carpark?
also how were they going to repurpose slanted floors?

Ugh... But at least we get a new tower where the Salvation Army building is?.According to the latest CMLC blog this project is about to be topped out. It's also undergone a re-design... sadly I think it will look a lot more like a generic parkade than it did in earlier renderings and I wasn't exactly a fan of those either.
