Telus may prefer to get out of the lease altogether. I don't recall the exact numbers but, cell phone usage during this glut is down by whopping numbers. They have been hit hard in Alberta too.

Telus owns part of the project. They are not just a naming-rights leaseholder.

Actually, they are the naming rights leaseholder until they own 100% of the Telus Sky project company.

I like this angle, you can get a sense of how the curve is going. This is going to be awesome watching it get built.

hallelujah !

The more I see this building as it gets built the more I think it's going to be amazing when finished.

My update for Telus Sky today.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

So we'll know by July if they're going to continue onto the residential portion!

Nice pics Surrealplaces, Myles. It keeps looking better as it gets taller.

 

[maestro]

I agree. The cladding looks better and better as more is added.

 

[Spudski]

The cladding looks a bit overpowering in the closeup shots but really nice from farther away. I think once it rises a bit and more glass goes in, the reflections from the sky will look awesome, just like other buildings in the city that seemingly change colour based on the time of day. Super excited!

Wait, so there's a chance this might not be built to its potential??

 

[maestro]

I would say the chance of that happening is equal to the chance of it happening to any tower being built anywhere.

There have been rumors of it being capped at the office portion. I haven't heard the rumor lately, but it was out there earlier when it was only at grade.
