Western Canada's tallest structure being built in Calgary

[Register123]

What no one has mentioned is that this is a Brookfield development and a cut and paste design of Bay-Adelaide Centre - right down to the two tower concept - except for the height. The second tower appears to be maybe 30 storeys? With Bay-Adelaide's two towers at 50 and 44 storeys, Bay-Adelaide beats this project by a few storesy and likely more total square footage.

I believe the second tower will be taller than BA east tower something like 46 storeys.

I hate to break the news to ya', but it looks like you're one of those who mix up centimeters and inches. Toronto's is shorter, and by almost 100', I might add.

Here comes the revised Edmontonian - 71 storeys, 278m

That's a beauty. Wouldn't mind having that in Toronto.

It's like a fuzzier version of Shangri-La.

Its going to become the newest arms (tower?) race between Calgary and Edmonton. Watch Calgary come out with 76 story tower after this one starts construction...

Construction of the two towers is expected to cost more than $1 billion and create more than 1,300 jobs.
