This was the building in question. I remember running through here as a child and loving it. It was like a really fancy house that was converted into office space, and I remember how warm the materials were inside and it really gave me a sense of comfort. My Dad and I would come on a Saturday...

Did you guys design Oliver House on 118 St off of Jasper? It houses a Dental office right now but my mom worked for LGS for 12 years and I believe they were the original tenants. It was designed back in the late 70s if I'm correct and has a similar design aesthetic to what you're describing.

Oooh! John Day, Pangman and MacLab? This might actually get built.

Yeah same here, I assumed it was in Vancouver.

Cannot wait. This along with the Brighton Block will be the complete package in helping to transform this stretch of Jasper. It will be a domino effect from here I hope.

Love the use of colour on the balconies, it's playful without being gaudy. The colour tones are perfect.

Love it, looks great. About time something was done with that parking lot. Anyone remember when the Wendy's was there?

I'm not adverse to seeing something like this built here in Edmonton, just not in the company of its current neighbors.

I meant that I hope that they are still getting boxed in, as opposed to just getting a standard patio railing.

I wonder when those decks on the west face will be getting closed in? That would be an unfortunate design change if they aren't.

Looking forward to Gene Dub's take on the tower. I honestly thought Brad Kennedy's submission was great, though. I would have been very happy to see it built.

Except when he's the developer. Zing!

I think there would be a marked improvement if they re-did the cladding similar to what's at Rogers Place.

I still question the colour scheme of the metal used to cover the parkade portion of the building, especially on the west side of the building. But it's a marked improvement over that horrific second rendering we saw with the McDonalds coloured townhouses. Love the choice of glass, though I...

The Symphony's South Elevation looks good, as does the podium's thoughtful integration into the hill with the townhouses. It falls short in my mind at the back, which is a big problem and been my top criticism of BZKA/BKA/Kennedy/Arc designs. When you consider they've designed a good chunk of...

Which is hilarious given there's already retail on the opposite corner. What are people worried about, that they won't be able to park their "For Sale" cars in view of Stony Plain Road anymore by that park?

Sigh, another underwhelming Kennedy/Arc Studio design. I know the architect only has so much control and ultimately it's what the customer wants, but man, I don't think I've ever been able to say that one of their designs is beautiful. They've made some really questionable design choices over...

Welp, looks like the rest of the country has finally taken notice of our carbuncle and it's now a meme.

Yep, the soft greys of the render made the spandrel out to be something different. Oh well, I suppose they don't call it "Render Magic" for nothing!

Definitely am really liking these renders. May have to change my vote soon if they hold true.
