I definitely disagree, I think this would be an amazing boost to the area and city. Sure hope this goes ahead as is! Calgary is slowly becoming a real city.

Does Vancouver not have height restrictions as well? I am usually all for supertalls in dense areas, but Vancouvers skyline is mainly all highrises and midrises, it just doesn't have the same aesthetic as most global cities are constantly building taller. I think it is best if it stays that way...

Yeah I am really excited for Vesta too and was thinking wow Calgary is finally getting close to a 50 story residential tower. Now that benchmark is getting blown out of the water. This project is great. Going to be a game changer for the city in the long term.

Yeah they really are stepping up to the big leagues. Which is great honestly. Let's hope they continue and eventually do build a supertall in Calgary!

They should just bump it up a few metres so it reaches 300 metres. Get ourselves a super tall!

Please no. Please stop scaling everything down in this city. Build bigger!

I love this. Can’t wait to see it fully built out! Surprising that the tallest building in Calgary won’t be downtown. Maybe we’ll see even more tall towers like this, maybe not as tall, but over 150 metres in the Beltline

Can you please run? I would vote for you.

That’s unfortunate, albeit expected

I sure hope it goes ahead! However with Wong there, this is probably dead i nthe water. Much better to have a parking lot for 'safety'....

This is why Calgary can't have nice things. Drive away development and investment.

That is incredibly unfortunate, I didn't know they rejected a plan. Shortsighted in my opinion.

More interested in getting re-elected than building Transit to help Calgarians and Calgary.

I can't recall seeing any renderings for this, but I am sure it will be nice, given what Truman has shown on other projects.

I agree completely on this. Gondek is not really serious about getting this project built at all, she is just trying to campaign against the UCP for her re-election. Plus when they shortened at the last minute last summer to create a train to nowhere project, I really lost all hope in the City...

Truman has applied for a re designation for 90 metres for this location. It looks like the NIMBYs are already out trying to stop it. I for one think this will be a brilliant addition to West District and Calgary as a whole. Hope this does not get denied like the recent one. I provided my...

Can’t wait to see all the development that will come downtown. Lots more vibrancy on the horizon. Wouldn’t mind seeing the numbers even higher, but I doubt that will happen 😂

Aren’t they preparing the third tower for West Village Towers?

Bit out of the loop on downtown and the population growth, but I just read that Calgarys Downtowns population grew from 38,663 in 2016 to 46,763 in 2021. That’s quite impressive, especially considering the downturn we experienced. I’m assuming the population now would be closer to 50,000 in...

Plenty of white collar workers take the train in Calgary though, that’s why the C Trains ridership is so high.
