A group of us Planning students from the U of A had the opportunity to attend a paint night at Stantec, hosted by the Alberta Professional Planners Institute (APPI)! The 3rd floor is a really nice space, and I would love to see more of the tower one day.

Our subject was 124th street You can see my galaxy-coloured rendition at the very front lol

Thanks for sharing.

Seeing these photos still makes it hurt that an observation deck was never added as the vast majority of Edmontonians will never see what the view is like from the top.

A huge miss if you ask me. I mean, it's only the tallest building in western Canada. A user fee to access the observation deck by both Edmontonians and tourists alike would have been a license to print money.

Yes, I still have great memories of going to the top floor of the AGT (now Telus) building when that was open to the public with friends visiting from elsewhere in Canada.

Last time I went to Toronto, I did the tourist thing and went to the CN tower, which was great. On the other hand, Edmonton now seems to miss or is indifferent to every opportunity to expand tourism downtown, which I suppose is one reason why our downtown is in the bad shape it is.

Yup a missed opportunity.
