Canada's Tallest U/C #11 - #30 - Page 79

Coldrsx · #**1561** Posted **Aug 11, 2009, 2:44 PM**

....just because i like rumours....

there could be an interesting situation shaping up in Edmonton with the EPCOR tower that is U/C right now. Originally (recent history) it was planned for 137.5 m (to spire) but now it looks as though they have it pegged at 149.35m which would potentially put it 3.35m above our current tallest, Manulife place @ 146m. (keep in mind we are still limited to ~150m due to the airport overlay).

now it has been pointed out that the geodetic height of manulife will likely be higher still.

that is the best shot of TIFF i've seen to date.

caltrane74 · #**1570** Posted **Aug 11, 2009, 9:26 PM**

This building is well on it's way to becoming one of the bigger tourist attractions in toronto when complete.

I know, I know!!

i dont like the TIFF window glazing at all

sammo · #**1574** Posted **Aug 12, 2009, 4:15 AM**

^no?
does seem kind of too small and tedious a glazing module...

maybe it'll grow on you. give it years.

damn Burano looks hot! and super cool that it will be across the street from the two Murano towers. that section of Bay St. is gonna be dense!

Coldrsx · #**1579** Posted **Aug 13, 2009, 3:17 AM**

RE: Woodwards - thank you vancouver for having the wherewithal to have 1 condo that is not another clone.

Daveography · #**1580** Posted **Aug 13, 2009, 2:51 PM**

^ And an awesome non-clone at that. It's gotta be one of my favourite new towers in Canada right now.
