Yeah, on the architect's website below:
GEC's Dentistry Pharmacy Building Redevelopment

I saw that, was hoping to see more of the building from the rear and any other interior renders :/

Beautiful and creative!

If they would only rehabilitate some of the other buildings in campus in a similar manner, especially in the Arts areas, I'd be supremely happy.

It's going to be nice to have the Dent Pharm building have a reputation besides "always closed", "haunted" or "Isn't there an old nuclear reactor in the basement?"

Agreed. During my degree, I never once stepped foot in DentPharm (probably because I wasn't smart enough for any sort of Dentistry or Pharmacy program) but I did go there when their old Ortho clinic was there. Such an incredible building. I recall there being granite (marble?) stairs that were literally worn down in the center from nearly a century of students, faculty and staff walking up and down them.

^The lobby's pretty magnificent too. Here's two not-so-great pictures I took about four years back:

This is definitely in the top five of Edmonton's architectural gems -- well done GEC!

I don't usually like all glass facades, but this is looking really good.

Even at 7 storeys, the clear glazing seems like it will still have an impact either reflecting the sun or lit at night from this vantage point. I can't wait to see some close-up shots to see the progress on this beauty.
This shot was taken from the staircase near Knobhill Park.

The contrasts between antiquated bricks and older cladding as well...

Nice shot, although I have absolutely no idea where this could've been taken
