Buildings and construction have been my life from as early as I can remember. First colouring drawings in my father's office, then getting on site years later. to now full career. At times the chaos and then the rhythms and flow during construction. Have always fascinated me.

wild how this is the SHORTER of the two towers - phase 2 will just be an absolute unit of a tower compared to anything else around it. I think it may actually end up being the third tallest tower in the city once completed iirc.

Hopefully at least one or two similar height towers will be built nearby.
 
As a two-tower complex it will certainly stand out on the skyline. I believe Maclab et al will be impelled to do the second tower and the low-rise connector piece -- it would be a difficult sell to move into a building that is surrounded by boarded up crud and demolished whatevers. If the Warehouse Park was better thought out that might be a reason to move into the new towers as well -- the towers will definitely outshine the City efforts. The new towers will definitely provide impetus for Norquest expansion plans and the betterment of 108th Street.

Close. It'll be the 4th. Manulife will beat it by 3m give or take.
It'll still be massive, and probably end up as prominent as JW and Stantec, since there's nothing around remotely as tall.

I think you mean Epcor Tower. Parks II will slightly edge out the Manulife Tower as well (which will be insane considering Manulife dominated the skyline for 3 decades, maybe 4 considering Epcor only beat it because of the spires).

You are correct.
Tower II will edge Manulife by less than 1/2 a metre, if the numbers we have are to be trusted.
