It's too bad that the scaffolding is still in the way as it takes away from the full effect of the new glass ... makes it look duller due to the shadowing.
My guess is that all the teal panels will be disposed of and replaced with the blue glass panels they have in place of them in the new section (the alternating "bluer" blue panels in your pictures, for lack of a better term based on my eyesight).
While on the subject of Confederation Building, I would like to see the teal roof on the House of Assembly replaced with real copper so that it eventually mimics the original House of Assembly roof on the top of the tower. The painted metal roof looks terribly out of place as it is (not well matched to the teal panels), and will look even more out of place when the new windows are finished.
