Ha, yeah I guess it's all relative to the market and one's personal expectations within that market. Compared to what you see in Edmonton or Saskatoon or something, this is still pretty good. Compared to what you typically see in Vancouver or Toronto, this is pretty mediocre. This is probably an Edmonton 8/9, a Calgary 6/7, and a Vancouver 4.
 
fwiw i called it the opposite of hideous but i get your point that edmonton sucks

Hey now, at least up here we can still afford to buy groceries AND pay rent... every other month! 😤
 
It’s nice seeing more towers from 17th ave.

I like the scale of this. If it was much taller with this design, it would start to fall apart but just as you're looking up and seeing it you get to the top, where there is some slight variation. Like some others, I don't mind how busy the windows are, it is different and I'll take it.
 
From a distance it's good, the windows and cladding / spandrel ruin it up close. Curious how it will look in a couple years with water staining and dust.

My rating may improve when more of the ground level is visible, that looks decent so far.
