Man, remember the days when we were all jazzed up about this project as the next big thing?

City-building wise, it probably punches above Stampede Station. Especially after seeing SS's plans for their ground floor. It deserves some hype, especially since this will be well underway by 2027.

I'm still jazzed about this, my hype for Stampede Station doesn't take away from this or vice-versa.

Still more excited about this than the W Hotel. The other one just adds (awkward) height. This project adds an excellent street level whereas the W is just lay-by's and lobbies.
The public observation level will be cool though.

Both have their appeals. One is a statement tower meant to add luxury amenities to the city (and change the skyline), and one adds retail and frontage space to the most urbanized street in the city via (in my opinion) the best podium this city has seen designed.
To be fair I have no issues with stampede stations podium as well, but it won’t serve the same utility as this project.

While this project excites me for the ground-level public space, I'm concerned that it will likely be phased, starting with building only the first tower - which would be nice, but wouldn't complete the ground plaza they have planned.

I believe the first phase is two towers
