Hopefully.Truman seems to be on this thing where every project is bigger than the last. If they keep this up we will get a ridiculous 100 storey building sometime in the 2030s!

i feel after we demolish the Saddledome, we will have some big project on that siteIt’s all fun and games until Truman announces a tower like this /s
All joking aside, i am still pissed Edmonton took our “outside of Toronto building height record”. I don’t care if we build a 75 storey residential tower just to spite Edmonton.

Slight clarification “shadow shall not be cast on the Bow River Pathway”.Yeah and the only restriction in Calgary is that the building shadow shouldn't be casted on bow river. so we can go taller in DT core.
I know they have a few high-rise proposals - Lincoln and Imperia but have they actually built anything beyond suburban communities and mid-rise condos?Truman seems to be on this thing where every project is bigger than the last.

Nothing tall yet but they have done a few concrete midrises, near Westbrook, at West District and the nearly-complete Frontier. So they have done concrete construction, even if it hasn't been the sort of heights they are doing now.I know they have a few high-rise proposals - Lincoln and Imperia but have they actually built anything beyond suburban communities and mid-rise condos?
Also a few others that have done high-rises in town. Axiom, ITC, Elite, Centron. ITC was busy for a while and then appeared to get bad rap, but they're back again.EllisDon or Ledcor have good experience building high-rise here in Calgary, so we might see them working.
i can join them hahaI could see Truman poaching people from those contractors and doing it themselves.
