Now, if I could only find a suitable husband. All those nights at the Black Eagle, and still no husband. lol

Wow, I guess I really haven't browsed the threads outside the Ottawa-Gatineau sub-forum for while...last time I looked at this thread, this project was just a hole in the ground, or framework upto ground level, and that's it...nice to see they are continuing quickly now...

Slow and steady progress..

Wow RBC and Ritz side by side going up, i'm assuming there was something that occupied those lots previously, that had to be demolished?

By the looks of your pics, this building is going to be pretty tall, and add some nice presence to the western skyline of the downtown. Is it going to be the tallest in that section of downtown?

Yup. It will be a new peak, but still an expansion of the downtown skyline.
