I wonder what is supposed to go where those little rectangular holes are on the podium cladding. Maybe they are waiting for a shipment of glass panes or something....

 

[Kaizen]

Good question, maybe ventilation ?

 

[Airboy]

You are right it is for the ventilation .

 

[Daveography]

Great shots @Kaizen!

@Platinum107 Operable windows would be my guess.

The small upper ones are scuppers. The bigger areas below are for operable windows/awnings.

Thank for the clarification @Abba, and welcome to the forum!

I was shopping at Apache Seeds today on 149 st, starting the seedlings soon. So I just had to check out West Block. Looking really really good.

Ground-level details coming together.

Looking very good, strong presence.

The commercial building with the liquor store is coming down.

That plaza is going to be amazing.

My wife is crossing her fingers that a Starbucks opens in there as well. Would be within walking distance from our house!

I honestly cannot believe how nice this building turned out, and I think it truly suits the area. do you guys think that those other two buildings in that one rendering will get built?
