The stark contrast between the louver and the rest of the window looks ridiculous, they should have painted those louvers at least. I really dislike this development, so disappointed with it.

You can’t expect much with Calgary, at least it’s not a parking lot lol but I feel you.

Agreed, it's awful and once the whole top is grey spandrel it's going to stand out even worse. They should have done the whole crown in the aluminum frame to match the mech floors. So ecstatic this mess is prominent from my living room.

the city should ban crowns on condo bulidings. either developers are too cheap or completely clueless/tasteless to be trusted to do it properly. i cant think of a single crown id keep given the oppourtunity. no more bowling trophies.

I don't mind the crown on the Versus Towers, mostly because they light up at night lol. Vogue isn't terrible, though they could have done it way better.

I never liked the design of the towers. The curtain wall cladding made these more appetizing. There's too much going in the curtain wall pattern. This shift in cladding adds more emphasis on the awkward shaped crown.

There is some transparent glass on the middle triangle at least. Does anyone else find the crown spandrel to appear like it has a matte finish? Why not go with a glossy one, so as to look like tinted windows?

I've largely been a defender of this development, but I have to lament this. It looks nasty and makes 0 sense- I don't even see how it could result in significant savings. Just boneheaded.

Gonna be a bruiser.

I don’t hate the section if louvres and then more spandrel. It’s looking better than I expected.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

Oh my damn god. Worse than my nightmares.

 

[Mountain Man]

Can we ban Cidex? lol

Couple shots today while out on the Bow rafting

 

[Chowda7]

From that angle they look pretty good

Personally I don’t have any issue with the tower portion of the project. It’s only the podium I don’t care for.
