I like it. I'm happy it's not a typical point tower

[easy as pie]

now that's what i call appropriate sidewalk treatment and street-level retail. very very impressed, given the location and expectations. i like that this one dumps the podium-style, and i like the impression of two buildings abutting each other as a means of neutralizing the impression of massiveness. and the blue is a nice touch too, unusual in vancouver towers. all in all, thumbs up.

Going up fast now. Two cellphone shots from Friday.

That's a good deal of progress. Thanks!

My photo from today. I guess it's nice to see spandrel in a darker shade of blue than usual...

[officedweller]

Here's a dumb question -
From the pic above, it seems that the windows shaded by the wide balconies (on the left) have zero spandrel, while the windows not shaded by the wide balconies (on the right) have the spandrel (even when not blocking a concrete column).
Is the spandrel largely to comply with LEED requirements to reduce solar gain?

If so, does that mean a building with wrap-around balconies (Toronto-style) can be built with no spandrel?

The orange on the base is a bit unexpected...but does break up the spandrel.

I was on the roof this week, some pretty good views up there despite being such a small building. The penthouse suites have rather large roof decks

[Klazu]

Nice! Thank you for posting this a bit different angle.

[officedweller]

Thanks!

The hill almost evens out the height with Seastar on Pacific.

[jlousa]

Can we confirm if this one is now occupied?

[missbailey]

Not occupied yet. I was onsite yesterday and there is still a bunch of stuff to be completed on the inside.

[Homeowner]

Home Inspections are being done right now and expected occupancy in October.
