The lights on this one really do look amazing, especially on those cold foggy nights! My technical brain can't un-see the malfunctioning lights though, hope they fix them soon and don't just leave them like I expect them to lol.

I agree. I can't help but feel disappointed with all the malfunctioning bulbs. It really ruins what is otherwise an amazing installation.

I haven't really noticed the burned bulbs for some reason.I know they're there, but don't notice until i look for them. The mind sees what it wants to see

I see all the missing mullion caps on the Bow every time I look at it too, would love not to but my job has trained me to look for mistakes on buildings haha

I counted 12 malfunctioning strips on the south facade when I took my dog for a walk up the Mission bluffs last night.

The north side is definitely a lot worse for burned out lights compared to the south side. There is an unfortunate combination of burned out lights on the north side that, once a friend pointed it out, means I can't look at Telus Sky without thinking of this scene from Austin Powers....

I can’t believe the Bow still has missing mullion caps. Is it the section on the eastern corner?

I wish I was surprised, but HR REIT cares about nothing other than making money for its investors.The only reason the Bow wasn't a bland crappy box like HR's other properties is because at the time Encana pushed them on it, wanting something iconic for their new headquarters. I'm not the least bit surprised they are leaving the mullions off. They'll put them on if there's ever a new tenant who asks for it, or if they sell the building.

Are you sure it's not because of the adjacent building north of it that is blocking the lower half?

I love the view framed within my street - but the shapely burnt out lights are quite obvious...

It's all over the building, more noticeable on the ends though since the caps are more like fins.

Every night seems to be a different light show. It is too bad this was not facing Olympic Plaza or some other large public space, in which to watch it from.

They should have a Christmas Tree and candle design to match the old Telus building lol.
