Brookfield Place | 246.88m | 56s | AFK

I have to say Telus Sky and Brookfield Place both look great at night. That's a great shot of BP @Da_Master. What type of camera did you take that with?

I actually took it with my phone, it's iPhone 7. My DSLR stopped working a little while back and I haven't decided whether I'm fixing it, buying a new one or just keep on using my phone as it does surprisingly good job even at low light, the only thing I kinda miss is wide angle lens that's really handy for urban photography.

Thanks! Amazing shot from a phone camera.

Some of the concrete fencing has been removed:

You can see trees inside already:

Across the street, little park getting its makeover:

Hi Group,

Tnx,

If I remember correctly, No one is expected to move in until late 2018. I wonder if that will effect the program space (plaza), christmas decorations and, crown lighting for the rest of this year?

Sweet Jesus. *drools*

The Western Giants...

It's crazy to think that Telus sky will appear to be almost same height as Brookfield and the Bow from this angle.

Exactly, as it is the closest building of the 4 to the photographer. I believe that is called parallax differential? I may be wrong, but either way will still be an incredible view. Two of the coolest major towers on the continent (Telus Sky and The Bow), and one of the classiest/high quality glass major towers in Canada (Brookfield Place East), all in one view

Price of admission at the tower just went up.

I have no idea but I did a google search on it and apparently there is a math formula for it....for those with a mathematical aptitude (not me).

If nothing has changed Scotiabank is moving its main branch and some departments to brookfield this upcoming autumn. Last year they have signed a deal for ~10% of Brookfield's space if I am not mistaken.

Hi Group,
A Few Questions. Those 2 Bldgs West of Telus on the North Side of 7th Ave. What's in Those Bldgs Now? It used to B Alberta Gvmnt and Telus Infrastructure if iI am Correct. Saw the remarks Scotia Bank is Moving Their Main Branch to Brookfield Place. so what happens to the Branch at 8/2? Its been there since the Middle 70s Since they Blt the Scotia Tower. Close to 45 Yrs Ago..
Tnx,
Operater.

I'm going to guess it gets shut down. Fingers crossed this paves the way for demolition of Scotia.
