@westcoastjos You are right. It is good that they caught this before they got any farther. I was saying it sucks because it kind of puts the tower behind schedule. But in the end there is more good than bad

Love the glulams with the expressed fastening details.

Progress on the office building. Not so much on the glazing side of things...

It's amazing how a little glass just dresses it up. Nice to see the progress on this. Thanks for the update @Daveography.

Hey, has anyone heard anything about the two other towers they show in these renderings? I guess we'll just have to wait till 100 and 300 West Block are done...

^My guess is that they will wait a while longer until the LRT opening date approaches.

Would certainly help sell units, and possibly demand a higher price.

I'm looking forward to the podium getting some glass. That'll transform that whole corner.
