Exactly. How to clean windows on a building with a weird shape is something that takes a bit of work and can even be forgotten about. The architects of Fountain Place in Dallas forgot to include window washing equipment in the design, and the oversight wasn't discovered until the building was already under construction.

Hi,
Might Not B Your Typical Window Washing Equipment but Time Will Show what it will look Like Later.

Tnx,

It'll probably be something like one of these.

Oh hey, I was walking around there today too Surreal! I was there at about 3pm.
We could've walked past each other and never even noticed!

There will be a supplemental system that will be very cool but I won't be able to post the details for a few weeks.

When you do get a chance to post the details, I’m looking forward to hearing all about it.

Telus Sky has a pretty straight forward up/down design when you think of it. It's not Vancouver House or L Tower.

Telescopic boom crane is how it will work. This needs to be solved at the time of BP application as the city needs to know how it will be maintained, so I'm sure the building maintenance unit (BMU) is already well under construction.

Are there any plans to re-clad the building next door?

Hi,
Interesting Question? As the Tower Narrows near the Top, will It just B a Row of Ap/Condos on Each Side etc. Just Wondering.

Tnx,
Operater

The tower has stopped narrowing for a couple floors now, its just straight up to 60 now, thats part of the illusion.

I'm really excited for that part, it's going to look so cool!
