Wow, I don't think I had noticed a photo of the completed Telus building yet. Nice.

That area of Ottawa is starting to/and will look very nice in the coming years. Lots of nice shiny enw buildings going up. Too bad they aren't taller. :(

I like it! Stylish, yet respects its surroundings. Looks like you have some good urban design out there. :tup:

It's a great addition to that corner and really accents the newly redeveloped Bank streetscape. Now let's continue this trend South down Bank.....and past my new residence at Mondrian!

I went by there today and noticed that all of those wires crossing the intersection have been buried. Looks like they're doing the same for all of the intersections all the way to Wellington.

A real step up from the usual Centretown crud.

Looks like there's a new restaurant on the ground floor now, next to Second Cup - businesslunch.ca or fast lunch or something was written on the window... can't remember exactly what it was.

They should have built it 12 storeys or more...and besides that, there have been many pilot project failures with Telus at work lately...wonder what that will do for them for business in the future...

Nice looking, especially with the curving facade.

Next step - get rid of that parking lot and fugly blank wall with Broccolini's 16 storey (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=140291) proposal.

Just digging in my archived photos... this is what used to be at the Telus site on March 21, 2006 (a week after I moved here).
