There is a concrete 2x2 panel that sits on stilts as the floor and everything runs below, meaning it can be changed very easily (electrical etc). One of the nicer buildings i have worked on. The curved glass panels are about $7000-$8000 each just to buy.

Glad to see Allied has carried on with implementing these features on this building. They did the same with QRC West, and last I heard the stilts may be a feature on the future extension of that project.

As for the glass, i'm pretty sure I said it before but it's worth repeating, it's absolutely luscious.

The floors are a great idea, I have not come across these before, we do a lot of condos so i wouldn't expect to. This building has a lot of unique features inside and out, from what i can see. Those glass panels are huge, i wish they had one or two left over, i bet i could find something to do with them. The glass contract must be huge on this building, and rightfully so, it's not just good from far away, the details/connections and water and air seal are 10x what you would see on a condo these days. Im proud to work on this place.

At the moment those large naked HVAC units on the roof are spoiling the lines of an otherwise handsome building.
Can I assume that they will eventually be screened from view in some way?
Hope so!

Based off the renders it should all be screened around with a green-roof on top.

Yes there are curved louvers going around at that level, I have never seen those before should look great!

Did Friday's windstorm actually topple the first HVAC unit on the left! There used to be four of them in a row (see my previous photo above). Safety concerns?

Wow that’s freaky, they looked like they were in place, so probably bolted, especially knowing that wind was coming. I don’t walk around in the city on days like that.

My goodness, Allied and HP are quite the dynamic duo. Everything about this project is simply outstanding, from ground level all the way to the roofline finishing touches.

I think the red precast is a touch...tomatoey. But yeah, other than that this is really nicely done.

I suspect it will get darker as it ages and gets dirtier.
