I'm not liking that glazing, it looks the same as what's on every other GGA project. TOO DARK!!!

Nice. Along with the canterra tower and Jamison Place, this project will really make this part of downtown look really good. Interesting to see how the roof turns out.

Why did Gibbs Gage put 2 different styles of glazing on this tower? the one visible in that last shot is way better than the other one.

G-G has a wierd fetish for the dual glazing styles; usually it sucks but in this case I think it works.

Totally agree. I think this makes the tower go from great to mediocre....

Both towers actually have the dual colors of glazing on them. Heres the initial darker glazing on the west tower:

And on the east:

Personally I don't mind the dual on these ones, the one thing it does do is make the slant of the one side more pronounced as you'll actually be able to see it narrow as it goes up

Yup, without the two tones the slant would not be very noticeable.

Dual glazing looks like crap on Keynote, but I really think it works in this case. I really like this project. Only about 18 more floors to go on the taller tower!

One thing the the two styles of glazing will do for these towers is help make them not look like twins as much. Looking from the north or from the east, you'll see two different looking towers.

I don't mind how the glazing is looking so far - both styles.

They should have just stuck with one glazing, the clear one. Would have made for a simple, yet great looking tower.
