@StopDropandLOL You think so? Not sure I agree, I think it looks pretty good.

Besides, the costs of a full reclad would probably have been prohibitive.

I looks better in person to some extent, also in if not focusing on it you don't really notice it as being painted.

 

[Airboy]

It looks OK. I probably would not have done the composite wood look on the balconies but overall a nice conversion.

From Tuesday.

^^^ Interior tour would be nice -- I would like to see what they did with the exaggerated height from offices.

 

[Daveography]

@archited I was offered another tour of the project once it was more complete, but that was pre-COVID.

Solo in the number one position... this one exceeded my expectations.

As per staff, the tower is already occupied and 20% rented. There are only touch ups left to complete.

The newly built low rise is still under construction currently.

They did a good job on this project.

They did a good job on this project.

With this one and the Harley Court conversion (E11even). Strategic Group seems to be pretty experienced with these conversions, they've done a few nice ones in Calgary too

Huge upgrade for Capital Blvd IMO. Dead office building converted into res PLUS a surface lot goes bye-bye? Coool beans, man.

Also agreed on E11even. Dumb name not withstanding, I visited with a friend a few months back. Stellar job on the conversion. The upstairs shared use space was great too, and their rooftop patio was a nice touch.

this one feels a bit expensive though. Comparing it vs Maclaren, artika, etc. Not sure they will fill it up at these prices without series promotions. Especially with augustana coming on in a few months. Anyone know why they priced so high? Especially for not a huge new highrise (legends/sky/encore)
