It is a little complicated due to a long term tenant in the already constructed podium that needs to move out, demo back to structure and then go up.

Oh, and a 250,000sqft tenant or so.

Either way, it looks to have some traction. This would be a skyline changer.

^that it does... and it will be interesting to see which tower the City chooses for their 350k RFP.

The building design, or the chance of getting built, or both?

Coldrsx · #51 Posted **Jun 19, 2013, 8:43 PM**

BOTH

In my humble opinion it is going to be one of the best tower designs in recent years.

As for it moving forward, they are actively marketing it behind the scenes and with a few RFPs out there for 300-400k it very well could be going in 2014/15.

^ Nice Tower Edmonton! ^

canucklehead2 · #54 Posted **Jun 26, 2013, 10:10 PM**

I like it! however I do have a soft spot for the old Manulife 2 design, including the prospect of another downtown hotel, which obviously won't happen if this version gets built...

rapid_business · #55 Posted **Jun 27, 2013, 3:34 PM**

Right, but there are hotel plans for the KR building and the Arena district as well.

Really want to know who might be showing interest in leasing some space in this building....

Coldrsx · #60 Posted **Nov 29, 2013, 5:38 PM**

City of Edmonton
Enbridge
ATCO
Stantec

are the current most likely.
