Yeah, I had no idea how visible the taper had become on the back side.

One thing I'm noticing is that this building will have a super slim profile from certain angles. If it looks slim at the 23rd, it'll be very slim at the 59th. a nice change from the Bow.

Boy, the changing floorplates are really noticeable now. Thanks for the updates DaMaster, and Spudski.

A few pics of Telus Sky from today...I even threw in a few artsy ones I've seen this building many times in person, and I've always been impressed but today it looked even better. Looking at it from down below with the curve taking place is somewhat trippy.

Looking incredible! Can't wait to see it complete! *drools*

I'm curious how the LED lighting is going to look, as it appears all the cladding is black

 

[maestro]

it's really twisting now.

Are they still going ahead with the LED? I can't figure out where it is or will be installed

 

[UrbanWarrior]

The Telus Sky website still shows the graphic with the colour-changing LEDs, so I'd imagine they're still going with it.

Probably mounted inside the glass.

Hi, long time lurker, just joined though lol.

Quick question, if Telus Sky is supposed to be 59-60 storeys, why does this model show 63? I swear I've recounted the floors like four times

[UrbanWarrior]

I get 63 as well, and welcome to the group

 

[maestro]

I count 63 as well. It's the facade of the building. Good chance what you see aren't all floors. 59 is pretty official.

First two taken yesterday:

Two more pics from May 22nd:

Man, this is one cool building. Every-time it adds a floor it looks better.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

I'm soooo excited to see it topped out at 60 floors (the rooftop amenities level wasn't counted as a floor originally, so it's the 60th floor)! It's going to look insane. I'll be making a trip to the Calgary Tower soon after this one tops out to snap a group shot of the Western Giants
