RBC Centre (LEED Gold, CadFair, 41s, KPF/B+H/&Co.) COMPLETE

[grey]

I agree. RBC is the superior tower, but B/A construction is a lot more fun to watch.

 

[ProjectEnd]

Large pieces of steel soaring over a major intersection will always be more interesting than concrete moving up a tube.

Steel verus concrete has totally different rates of construction progress, too. B/A was soaring almost immediately, while RBC inches upward.

what floor is this one on?

Did you have one of us in particular in mind to count them for you? The most recent photos are one page back.

If the L tower is a steel frame, it will be the most exciting construction site (sight?) in the city bar none.

I like RBC more. I prefer its colour, design and proportions. But it is a tough call because B/A is a sweet building. If this were the Stanley Cup Final I'd say RBC in 7 games.

Hehe, nice analogy.

BA Vs RBC

what hipster said

 

[interchange42]

Sorry - I don't get the connection with whatever that is pictured and the RBC.

I believe that is the Transamerica building up at NYCC. The glass looks similar to what BA is getting which is the only connection I can perceive

 

[interchange42]

Okay, you're right, it is. This is the RBC thread though, not BA, and Transamerica is not reminiscent of RBC at all.

^perhaps it would make more sense if you looked at the fine print above the image

Very nice shot! It is making an impact!

What's going on with the Telus tower? RBC is rising fast and Telus is only on the 3rd floor. I really thought that they'd be cladding it by now.

Nice angle of RBC Alberich.
