Holy crap that looks good. I think it will look even better once terminal renovations are complete in that area.

I did like the wooden accents of the original design but I l also like the colours on the refresh. They will definitely pop out more, especially as you're approaching the airport on Bell Blvd, or even in a plane. I wish they could still incorporate the wood though; I thought it was a nice departure from the standard airport steel, glass and concrete.

I also like that the newest/actual design has a smaller footprint - without the large single storey (meeting space?) area, potentially allowing for more another high(ish) rise development. Maybe some offices or something.

I'm glad to see this level of interest and construction occuring around the airport; shows traffic is growing.
I look forward to the future admin building going in next to the Alt Hotel - should be interesting.

Haha, more attractive than some buildings downtown? Certainly all the faux heritage.

This turned out better than the renderings.

Looks great, not sure I'll ever have the need to stay there, but it's about time there is a hotel attached to the airport, I hope it does well.

Also, I don't think I've ever seen a photograph of a building so much like a rendering, not in comparison to the original rendering, but in the sense that it looks like the building was computer generated in the image.

It does look good. I had a nice long look at it this morning heading into the airport.
