Upon entering the building, you can find a spacious lobby, mailboxes, a bike storage room, and an elevator that takes you to each floor.

Well then, I'll buy. It has one of those elevators that takes you to each floor instead of one of those other kinds.

Housing projects like the infamous Pruitt-Igoe had "skip-stop" elevators.

This "stunning brick building" lol! "Only mildly ugly" would be a better description!

Should we all pool money and buy this? SRC Calgary needs a headquarters...

I've always liked this one - not that it's attractive, just that it has a unique and intentional vibe and really maximized the space. I don't think it quite comes together as a standout building, but it's better than had they played it safer and more boring in this location and build something more boring.

The location is stellar too with all the great restaurants and things in Chinatown right there.

Best vietnamese subs in the city are at your doorstep! that's a selling feature on it's own. Haven't been to the Pho place since it rebranded, but it was one of the best as well...

I also like the TV on the wall hung above the outlet instead of over it. If I went to a friend's house and their TV was like that I might actually just rip it off the wall and leave.

It does seem awfully high up the wall.

Is that Michael Scott's condo?

From a Sunday stroll.The new plaza expansion glazing is super transparent from certain angles, can hardly tell it’s there.

Personally I love really transparent glass. Probably more suited for a less sunny climate than ours, but the efficiency is not my problem, so I always prefer it over more tinted options.

Land use is in for the new bus barn off Blackfoot. Big news for building out East Victoria Park.

The TV is way too large for it to be Michael Scott’s condo lol
