Something I’ve begun to wonder about- you see this with a lot of buildings where they’re halfway up on height but start putting up spandrels and cladding etc. buuuut then - meh, they stop. I imagine there’s reasons like staffing, supply, and some need for access or safety- it is there any builder who does this better than anyone else? Is there not enough value in consistent follow through? CIBC towers seemed to get it.

You’ll see all the super build videos from China and other countries that put stuff up in two weeks and they just throw people at it, with everyone working simultaneously. We may not be able to do it year round, but I’d think that in Canada, there might be incentive to speed things up and get sealed up for winter at least.

That pink concrete is NOT looking any better with time. Poor choice, in my opinion.

yea its looking washed out. hopeful that black curtainwall trim and flashing will contrast well, but the mass of grey on top will just wash it out even more in all likelihood ;(
