Gosh, this building's pretty. The best tower in Canada!
Best tower west of Toronto actually.

I'm already thinking I'm going to be a little sad when this building is complete. I get to look at the progress every day on my way to and from work.
There's still the south block building. Also, EnCana is bought up CUPS and I assume are going after the Andrew Davidson building site once the police fuly move out. There'll be lots going on around there for a while I think.
With the glut of office space, I'm going to assume that only the south block will see the light of day for some time. They'll hold the other property for a while and either sell it when the commercial market upticks or develop it themselves, but I can't see that happening till at least 2017(?) barring a major head office relocation to Calgary to sop up the vacancy.

That I could see, but I could also see EnCana/Cenovus building for their own needs yet again. They really shouldn't care what building their own building will do to the rest of the office market, it won't affect them anyways. Unless of course they would be planning to build more than they need and try and lease out that space to other clients.
I could certainly see Encana/Cenovus building for their own needs despite the market. I'm certain they already have some kind of rough idea of what they want to build on the CUPS/Andrew Davison site. Of course, it would be very preliminary. The parkade plans are drawn with the future joining of parkades in mind.
They probably have a preliminary idea of the tower they want to build where the old Salvation Army warehouse is too (the North West Traveller's building is staying). The plans have provisions for a parkade connection there too. The old Salvation Army thrift store (built in the 70s - and being used as the Ledcor offices right now) will be torn down as current construction progresses to make way for the +15 connection to the Telus building.
