LOL! I just found out that article was an April Fools Joke. Man it totally got me

Damn it! That is April fool's joke #2 that I've fallen for. The first one being "Panorama" I even made sure of the date that you posted this on and it was April 2nd so I thought it was legit.

^ When I saw the article it was on April 2, so the thought did not cross my mind, and I did not look at the date on the newspaper, sure enough it was an April fools joke.

some pics (by me) over the last few weeks - coq & surrey not many but some

Thanks for the pics, spongeg. I can't wait for the wave of development to wash away those hideous strip malls, parking lots, etc in Surrey.

From today in Burnaby, maybe someone knows the name of the building(s) under construction?

SpongeG · #46 Posted **May 19, 2008, 2:30 AM**

thats led mac's brentwood gate - the tower is called Fitzgerald

all the buildings on the site are named for the Canadian painters known as the "group of seven"

which is funny cause Polygon has a development a block south and its buildings are all named after styles of art - the tower called "watercolours" and the buildings named mosaic, collage etc.

looks good - nice pic - very vibrant colours

^Thanks - and these two are just a bit farther east, visible in the other photo; I also don't know their names.

that would be the Legacy

Hong Kongese · #49 Posted **May 19, 2008, 5:46 AM**

Architype, great photos and their contrast is very sharp. What kind of camera do you have?

Architype · #50 Posted **May 19, 2008, 10:59 PM**

^ Olympus E300, but I almost always use some post processing which makes a difference.

Hong Kongese · #51 Posted **May 19, 2008, 11:19 PM**

^^You did a good job then!

Great pics!
In that one it's not Ultra but D'corize, Paradigm actually just made a thread about it.

Oh and how did you get into the Central City tower to take some of those!?

vanman · #56 Posted **Jul 18, 2008, 8:39 AM**

Great shots Sponeg. Did you take those elevated shots from the top of the parkade?

SpongeG · #57 Posted **Jul 18, 2008, 7:25 PM**

no from the 13th floor inside the tower

there is a great view from every level when you get out the elevators

some pics from the last couple of weeks (all by me)

a new development on canada way just east of boundary road - previously a crappy single story strip restaurant thing

this is further down canada way near that office park

the new "lifestyle" mall in south surrey - its about 20% open? maybe less - something like 5 of 60 stores are open

Metro-One · #60 Posted **Nov 11, 2008, 11:26 AM**

Here are some night pics of the Metrotown skyline. It is good size for a suburb.

All pictures are my own.
