That's why Simon Fraser University's brutalist structures actually look good, in comparison with the UofC's which to be honest looked terrible. Not so much the architectural differences in my opinion, but the landscape differences made all the difference.

Please get the overhead power line buried.

I hope that Buon Giorno can reopen in this after.

They did complete "First" and "Verve", but you're saying the high-rise expertise was from Fram? If so, I hope they can hire some good personnel with high rise experience.

A new tallest building would likely require a revival of the commercial office market. As much as I'd want one soon, I'd expect maybe 20 years.

They should just bury the poles...

To be honest I don't see how this will be better for car centric people or urbanists...

This is from Western securities, same developer as Underwood. I have some faith this will be decent because of that.

I'd guess there were some corporate cash flow concerns.

As much as I agree from a skyline perspective, first we need something/someone to fill up the Nexen building!

There was a real contrast between the interior design and exterior architecture for this building, more so than most buildings I've ever seen. I really liked the interior design, but wasn't a fan of the exterior.

This is great news!

As a beltline highrise resident, AC is mandatory in the summer. I honestly wouldn't consider any multi-family building without AC. At least if it's single family you can sleep in the basement...

Makes no sense to me. Why not just townhomes?

I was trying to convince friends to go there a few days ago. Glad I didn't haha.

I hate the parking!
