From the south the tower looks almost the same height as Suncor now.

That first picture gives an idea of what this would have looked like as a white tower.

'Scuze me while I kiss the Sky!
I love it regardless of it's colour, but I kinda think it would have stuck out more on the skyline had it been white.

On that second last one you can see the open air staircase in the atrium. By the looks of things they must have changed it because they don't look like this:
Hopefully the green wall hasn't changed.

Wait, that's the staircase??? :I
I thought/hoped that was just part of the construction stuff.
THAT reminds me of these: (and not in a good way).
Might be another classic case of cheaping out on stuff. It's probably not even that much more expensive to make a curved staircase like in the render, as opposed to a VERY steep looking switchback one.
I'd say if the green wall isn't included that's kind of a deal-breaker right there - as far as the interior goes. Exterior is still beautiful

It’s... the cheapening! The age old Calgary tradition. Only the exterior matters.

Those are sweet photos @GoVertical, especially that first one. The way the texture and light changes as you go down the photo is really interesting. One thing for sure, this tower is going to be photographed *alot* when it's completed.
