Nice. I like the colour. Glad they didn't do the classic material switch-a-roo.

Not keen on the pinkish brown, but will work in that area of town (not too modern).

Nice shot. Didn't think of how much taller towers on Broadway will stand out from downtown's PoV.

Is that not the tower portion being built? Should the title not be changed?

This thing is already looking so big in person. Excited to see it rise faster now that they're getting to the res floors.

Totally. I was driving north on Granville today, and it already looms large at the intersection.

The little clock tower across the street is tiny.

Driving south along Granville, looking up the hill, it is even more imposing. Excited to see some glazing go up here. The shape of the tower is somewhat standard so hopefully good materiality helps this one out.

Can we change the title to '1477 West Broadway | 124 M | 39 fl | U/C'
