It might keep you dry. Unless you’re UrbanWarrior; it’ll possibly make them wet.

Sopping wet.
Also, it's a sort of roof for a "community gathering space" that'll include a fire put and a bunch of seating n shit.

No, it covers an 11,000 sq ft elevated outdoor patio off the Brand Room as well as the performance area at ground level. Guests can also step out of the rain.

It's going to act as the Official Hail Shelter of the Calgary Stampede.

That might be the best pic from Scotsman's Hill I've ever seen!

That actually looks really cool beside the Saddledome in that pic!

The Saddledome is a very cool building. I have to stop myself sometimes and appreciate it. They tried something different, went way outside the norm and we ended up with something pretty cool. The Calgary skyline from Scotsman's Hill is the quintessential 'Calgary Downtown' picture, the Saddledome's place in it will be sorely missed by me when its time comes.
The BMO (Roundup Centre) does look pretty cool beside our old, not so shiny jewel.

I really like the overall design and look of the BMO expansion. It’s going to come down to the final finishing materials of the copper cladding. If it’s metallic like the renderings it will be a stunner, if it’s muted it will be disappointing. Either way massive improvement over the old Corral.

Unfortunately I’m pretty sure the roof on that swooping canopy is going to black.
