London Diagrams
Decided to try and spruce up our diagram a little with some new additions.
The old diagrams for the Colborne Centre complex were looking pretty tired so I've started drawing new ones. They're mostly done, just not sure whether I like the trees or not. And there's supposed to be a few trees on the left too. What do you guys think? http://i.imgur.com/yIca7.gif Once I finish and submit these I'll start work on the Harriston. |

Keep at it bolognium. No idea how you're making these but they're awesome. With London's diagrams currently being showcased on the main diagrams page, you'll be sure to attract a lot of viewers. |
Excellent work. Not at all baloney.

I started working on the Harriston, but damn is that building ugly. Just drawing that monster was putting me in a sour mood. The Colborne apartments may be ugly, but at least the know they're ugly.
So I drew the Crown on King apartments instead. SSP had the height estimated at 73m, but the developer received a maximum allowance of 80m. I figure I'll have to edit the diagram once the buildings are actually complete so if the height is off I'll fix it then. Also, the taller tower is definitely the one under construction, right? Maybe I should add that to the comment section when I submit the diagram... http://i.imgur.com/b4po9.png |

3.1m X 24floors = 74m + a 6m mech penthouse = 80m. You can safely go with 80m in height now. Quote:
Also: the Harriston will be about 80 - 83m. The Renaissance towers should be re-drawn. The posted renderings are fairly inaccurate. Check your PM's for details. Other buildings at 50+ metres not included in the SSP diagram include: - London Towers South (65m) - 520 Talbot (60m) - 155 Kent (48m) - 190 Cherryhill Circle (62m) - Victoria Hospital (approx. 65m) (that would be one hell of a drawing, viewed from Commissioner's Rd: 185m wide, 65m tall, 3 towers) |
Thanks for the Harriston numbers, Snark. Again SSP's estimate seemed kind of low on that one. I wasn't even able to fit in the mechanical room using their 70m estimate.
http://i.imgur.com/1xNHY.gif After I finish the Harriston I think I'll redo the London Towers complex. Like you said, the south tower is missing and the east tower's diagram is screaming for an update. On top of your list, the Gartshore towers on Ridout, Station Park Hotel on Pall Mall and Peter McGregor tower on King should probably be done at some point. Also, thanks for the Renaissance line drawing. I think I'll take a shot at drawing it once I complete a few of the missing buildings you mentioned. And that Victoria Hospital drawing should be fun, there's certainly nothing like that on London's diagram right now. |

Those diagrams are awesome! I especially like the Crown on King ones! :)

|
well done. are you brave enough to tackle...the courthouse?
|
Looks like you got your work cut out for you.
Harriston looks great! |
Good work there bolognium much appreciated
|
So we're going to go with the 80.3 meter estimate for the Harriston tower?
Doesn't that seem somewhat tall, considering most residential towers of 23 floors are in the 60 to 70-meter range, or is there a particular oversize ceiling height element to this building? Great work on the diagrams, btw, Bolognium. And please be sure to watermark your illustrations when posting to the forums. That keeps them from being used without proper credit and attribution :) |

Imagery shows the structure to be nearly identical in height to the nearby Talbot Centre towers, such as this image posted last year from Dither City that illustrates this last point very well. Both buildings are pretty much the same distance from the camera and the camera viewpoint at a higher elevation in order to make a consistent comparison: http://a.imageshack.us/img822/5639/img1940f.jpg |
Cool. Thanks for the info. I'll change the height and have the drawing approved.

oohh I see two additions to the London diagrams:
http://skyscraperpage.com/diagrams/?cityID=61 Thanks for giving the drawings a major upgrade bolognium! |
:banana: Holy crap! You have no idea how much excitement I get out of seeing changes to the London diagram! Nice work bolognium! :)

I never realized that London had so many twins until I looked at the London diagrams.
