Yeah, I think the only thing they changed from the original renders to the model is that the outdoor pool is no longer outdoor. That little triangle extension with the glass you can see the pool through wasn't in the original renders, but that doesn't really work for Edmonton for obvious reasons.

Right, my mistake. I forgot about the fact the podium is still being built out of steel. The only difference I see so far is that there are only two columns extending two floors as opposed to four.

@crisp Good eye, yeah, it looks like they adjusted the design on the south face where it transitions to the tower.

Apr. 28 - Podium starting to wrap around south side; everything else continues to rise. That's some shiny glass. Tower now about 22 stories up. Three more to go before the floorplate narrows.

I'm guessing it should be any time now that the flooring for the legends should start, because progress is slowing down on the tower now.

@Jarodsc17 About 2 floors left I think, yup.

Looks like the main structural steel for the podium is done as the mobile crane is gone today.

 

[Daveography]

Lots of work done on the podium while I've been away from the look of it. Can't wait to get a look in person again soon.

May 26 - podium steel complete, tower continues to rise
