145.35m/477 ft. + 6 metres mech. penthouse... a hair under the mythical 500' mark.

Sorry 3D, that height is to the tip of the tower. City hall was kind enough to have it marked on the report.

^ Time for me to go shopping...

Found this on Architects Alliance website. I know it's not Market Wharf (the tower looks curvy) but I am curious to know which project it is:

AA seem to be big on the askew, vaguely OCADdish columns these days.

 

[SP!RE]

I love those columns... very Dutch.

 

[urbandreamer]

maybe it is Dutch--ie their Waalpanorama project in Nijmegen?

Looks good--that's the kind of lowrise townhouses we should see in LV.

It is indeed the Waalpanorama project - the curvy tower gives it away.

I am really sick of the Architects Alliance Condo... blah

If that's it, then they're on the verge of reload and repeat.

Wylie - the rendering and the line drawings indicate an alternating pattern of indents and projections on alternating balconies as the building rises - so not quite so square as your model indicates.

to me it looks like the balconies are slightly curved as the alternate a bit forward and a bit back on each floor which would create those shadows and light areas on that elevation posted before.

Fixed...

I agree with whoever said they're getting a little sick of aA condos these days.

Although I would rather have another Clewes designed building than, say, a Grazziani and Corrazza, now that aA gets picked for seemingly every second downtown highrise project, their designs have started to become lazy and derivative.
