despite four of the ugliest condo towers anyone ever got paid to build, i dont mind this view.
Hopefully the trees get nice and tall and block those towers from view! Will be nice to see the lots between MacLeod and the fugliness get developed one day!
That big tree by Weadickville looks to be dead.Hopefully the trees get nice and tall

beige is a horrible color isn't it lol. What's sad is Alberta's boom in the late 90's & 00's occurred in one of the ugliest, soulless design phases of our lifetime. Nearly every suburban house of that era...vinyl siding, ugly stucco, beige interior wallsI think some colour change could help those condos. If Sasso and Vetro painted all the green stucco white or black I think it would help. If NuEra painted their cream stucco white it would also help.
When we transitioned from condo based towers, where you had to sell potential buyers with the help of a nice looking building to rental towers, the designs changed. I'm happy to see more rental towers, but a side effect seems to be more generic designs.I think our suburban/low-rise design game has improved...but I think there's an argument that our high-rise game has take a step back over the last decade or so. Atleast when it comes to condo towers, I think we're in "one of the ugliest soulless designs phases of our lifetime" as we speak.
I have seen the early renderings for this project. It's very ambitious and I have a feeling most people here are going to like it. It will be a significant improvement on the Cove buildings.Hopefully Stampede Station blocks those towers from view!![]()
