Soon, you won't even notice a 550-600 footer! It is nice building, anothe 10-12 floors would have been nice.

Yeah anchor tenant gobbling up 300,000 sq ft of office space. Some Oil and Gas company based in the Bow Valley Towers moving to Jamieson in 2009.
Winter garden will be at the plus 15 level just like that of PLT.
But it will also have a winter sky garden too at the top 2 floors overlooking the rest of the core. Sweet.!

So they're going to demolish everything that's currently on that site first?

When does demolition start?

Thanks for that update there Canterra.

I'm a little surprised that nobody has posted the night rendering in this thread yet...
