That 3rd photo caught me off guard. I was wondering why I never noticed the wavy podium! I'm guessing your phone vibrated while you were taking it? Kind of a cool effect.

You could be right. At first I thought it was a rolling shutter effect, but it appears to be some kind of digital misfire.
Still, thanks for all the updates today scamander! You really covered a lot of ground. Hopefully wasn't too cold.

Yeah, I was thinking of not posting that one, but decided against it. A wavy podium would definitely be pretty cool though!

Thanks Scamander24 and those who have been contributing photos lately... Usually large photographic contributions come at a far better rate on UT than they have been lately... I'm thinking winter has a lot to do with it... For us out-of-towners, these photo updates are greatly appreciated... I also notice that the level and quality of dialogue is ratcheted up a few notches after a good photo essay... Keep them coming please!

The busy random window mullions looks more like Mondrian than Picasso.
I prefer sleeker looking windows with minimal or no mullions at all, but this will still be a sharp looking building.

Same here! Part of that has to do with red being my favourite colour though...

That red is sharp! I especially like that the window frames and mullions are also the same red.
This would have been a great opportunity to have window shades in red to further emphasize this striking design element. I am worried that when the mandatory white window shades are installed it will lose some of this boldness, likewise on the grey portions of the building (which the glass should be tinted).
It would be much successful than the almost-red curtains at Fashion House which was a huge missed opportunity and disappointment.

Outstanding update/pics!
This project is already a stunner. They chose the colours very wisely; I had my concerns about the red because the wrong shade could have thrown everything off; but it looks crisp and exactly as promised. So refreshing to see something like this going up, and not the same old same old.
The vertical topography Teeple created on the tower is very imposing but in the best way possible; really makes a modern statement.

Awesome pics, sMT! That view down Beverley is really going to look like an artist's rendering (or a Picasso?)
