These are really nice looking towers! It's a shame they are being built in such a weird location and won't contribute to DT skyline and density. Oh well...

Yeah totally. They would slide right into Beltline or Eau Claire easily.

I feel like Calgary needs more suburban towers. We have the fewest of all major Canadian cities except Edmonton, and the fewest as a proportion of our total number.

Having high quality, good looking towers outside the core may help suburbanites get more comfortable with the idea of them outside the core as well, which needs to happen.



On another note, super glad to see progress on these.

Wow, didn't realize how big that hole would be

Possibly some UG parking for the shopping area?

The retail portion on the right is honestly one of the ugliest structures ever built in Calgary. It makes west village towers and the hub look like works of art in comparison... Good thing it's not in a very prominent location.

Yep, agreed. Was looking at that monstrosity heading out of town the other day. So incredibly bad.
