Yeah, let's wait and see what kind of glass goes up on BAC.
RBC is very bulky, and BAC is a slim "yet massive" and tall tower.

current took these photos....
Photos taken today. Windows have been installed on the west side of the building.
East side looking south.
A closeup and the small windows can be opened, you can see the window latch.
Southeast corner, you can see the red CBC building in the background.
From the Festival Lightbox construction site you can see RBC Centre rising to the left of Metro Hall.

Man, in some of these pictures you get the impression that they're building the whole city at once!

^No they're merely trying to make the CBC even more pointless than it is

^I don't know what world you live in. You'd rather be homeless than live in a condo and you think the CBC is pointless.

I like the opening windows and the scale of this building. It has a friendly scale to it.
I am officially in love with this project.

These guys are just trucking along with this project. Interesting how this huge project is moving along at such a pace while some smaller projects like London on the Esplanade seem to be taking forever.
Not a big fan of the renderings of RBC but I must say that I do like the glass so far. Maybe it will surprise and look quite sharp.

^Nope. I didn't pay for them. It's an office tower for the worst bank in Canada: RBC i hate those bastards!

In the render below, you can see the white panels for the bottom floors 1-4 think but not the top floors.

Hey guys,
when do we expect this to be completed?
I seriously want to know, because I've decided that when it officially opens, I'm going to go explore it (lobby, PATH, outside perimeter, etc.) and take photos of everythinnnggg.
I'm excited!
