Thanks Surreal! This is the reflection of the Bow in the glass on the Royal Canadian Pacific Railway Pavilion at 9th Ave & 1 St SW.

Pics?! We need pics!!!

1st piece going vertical now with a jig or 2 on location as well. (Tried a cell phone pic, too far away to make out anything, sorry)

Here's a section of the Plensa piece I saw yesterday off site at the manufacturers.

That is a seriously big office tower!

Bigtime · #**3731** Posted: **Aug 13, 2012, 1:14 PM**

Yup, the plaza and lobby is open now. It is awesome to be able to walk right up and look up at that big concave side.

The only time we'll see the inside of the Bow unless we get a job with Cenovus or EnCana:

I had dinner with someone who will be moving into the Bow and she doesn't like the flat roof of the Bow. She thinks it should have had a pointy roof like the Chrysler Building in NYC so I rolled my eyes on behalf of everyone at SSP.

2 hours after this shot, we had a huge hail storm.

That almost looks like The Gerkin from this angle.

Are there any renderings of the art installation at night? I'm thinking that is when there will be most impact. Ground level looking up at a well lit piece with the black background of the Bow will be awesome.

Surrealplaces · #**3740** Posted: **Sep 13, 2012, 10:11 PM**

^Yeah, it would be really nice to see lit up at night. I can't imagine them not lighting it up.
