In this spot we have Harbour Square and the York Quay towers to the south, we have Waterclub to the west, we will have Menkes' tall 90 Harbour replacement to the north, Oxford's new RBC building to the east&#8230

Roy Budgell, a Menkes general manager at the nearby Telus Tower, could say only that “a condo development with a possible commercial tower†was planned for 90 Harbour.

Was this tweeted by a pre-teen? Either way, I hope they go for a stand-out design if they are going for "CRAZY HEIGHT"

If true...CRAZY HEIGHT!! = 300+METERS = SUPERTALL lol

@BuzzBuzzHome: more than 75 stories?

@BlackTowerTV: I am pretty sure its 75 but I will be certain at the next development meeting.

Ahh..75 storeys is no crazy height ..when just next door they are proposing a couple of 70s and building 67s.

75s should still be over 250m in height, so 120 Harbour would be far from short. But yes, it would need to be at least 85s to have a reasonable chance of exceeding 300m (unless Tridel goes all Dubai and decides on 4m+ floor heights, or else adds a massive spire).

Even so, when you add the (very likely) several 200m+ towers that will eventually go up on 60 Harbour, plus the likely 200m+ tower on 45 Bay, this whole South Core district will have a VERY impressive skyline, rivaling cities like Calgary just by itself. (Certainly not as large in terms of numbers of buildings, but in terms of height and density, it must be close.)

Sounds very exciting...

Architect is Wallman. 75s.

That's not surprising. Wallman is Tridel's go-to architect for downtown projects; see 300 Front and Reve. Let's just hope it's not covered in spandrel like 300 Front.

The image does not show up for me ... I assume this was it:

someone zoom and enhance

Not very clear - but you get the gist of it - Tall!

When I enhanced urbandreamer's image, the result looked rather like Aqua in Chicago. Of course, this could simply be due to over-sharpening of the image.

p.s. -- This building would also be about the same height as, or slightly shorter than, Aqua.
