Love the massing here. Must be close to the top though. Roughly how many floors to go?

The glass looks really nice from some angles and from some others, it looks like the one used for mason jars.

That must explain this headline:
We're in the Midst of a Mason Jar Shortage and the Culprit Is Shockingly Obvious

Makes sense it got marketed 3-4 years ago

That is great news and a positive sign for offices and business going back to downtown once vaccine is out!

Thanks for the great pictures. Hard for me to look at these without imagining a fully completed Rail Deck Park in the foreground and then pretend that it stretches all the way to the DVP with a lovely pair of pedestrian bridges going over the Union Station train shed.

Surprised and Impressed - the Office Tower north crane appears to be working this morning.

I can't be the only one who has a visceral dislike of that growth on the the north face of the tower.

It really does not work with the rest of tower at all.

Ugh.

I'm guessing they're under a tight deadline to meet the dates for tenant moving in in Q1 2022!

I think they just didn't go far enough with the design concept- they seem to have settled on a relatively standard build with a couple SE elements that stand out awkwardly. I actually like the cross-bracing from afar but up close they register as an afterthought. I take it they were taking a queue from Richard Rogers with the external elevator design. Agree that it just doesn't work well on what is otherwise a pretty conventional looking office building. Perhaps had they gone with better quality glazing and finishes it would work better.
