After such a slow start they are moving at a good pace now. If my counting is right, they are at 23 floors now? So still 8 more floors to go, which will make for a nice tall, slim look.

The building looks fantastic from 11th Ave, especially on sunny days. When the Marriott Hotel is done it'll make for an interesting backdrop, and an interesting contrast of colours .

Thank you Surreal! Seems to be about 4-5 floors till it is topped out!

That sounds about right. Even now at ~28 storeys it has a nice height to it. I can't wait to see that stretch of 10th ave once this and the Residence Inn is done.

I like the way this is turned out

Interesting how the balconies go all the way across on the south but are interspersed on the north... hadn't noticed that before.

No elevation is the same, or close to similar for that matter.

I love the way this building looks from the south side, and once the glass balcony walls go up, it will look even better.

Those nice wide balconies will be great sitting in the sun most of the time. I would think that even in the winter, it'll be nice on several occasions.

How many more floors are left? It must be getting close to being topped out .

 

[crisp]

I count 28 floors, so four more livable floors plus mechanical.

 

[Always_Biking]

Just about right. Even now at 28, it's a nice proportional height. another 3 or 4 is just perfect.

Project Update:

Supported by a valiant Toronto-based team in Lamb Development Corp and CORE Architects, 6th and Tenth is one of Calgary's most highly anticipated new residential projects. Rising in the Beltline, a neighbourhood in transition, the tower adopts an interior and exterior design that has come to personify the team involved. The contemporary contrasting glass aesthetic of CORE combined with Lamb's raw concrete living spaces creates an unmistakably urban atmosphere. As the tower quickly rises towards its ultimate height of 31 storeys, SkyriseCalgary sat down with Babak Eslahjou, Principal at CORE Architects, who shed some light on how the tower came to be and what it means for the city.
