This one is kind of moving at a snail's pace. Glad to see it above grade finally.

I really like the look of this tower. Hopefully it turns out as good as the rendering. Raffi Architects do good work.

It's a nice medium rise tower. I'd like to see more of these around Calgary.

^This one should start making better progress now that it's above the podium.

This is my favourite new condo tower in Calgary because of its perfect location. Just about everything one needs in a neighbourhood is within a couple of blocks and it is an easy walk to downtown.

It would be one of my choices for places in the Beltline. The location can't be beat.

This one and Calla are my two favorites. Calla may not be tall, but it's location is also kick ass.

Agree. Calla might be a better location with the park right beside it.
