I liked the original design better.

Don't build it! Plant a tree!

A bunch of trees would be good there, but I'm siding with the extra density

Extra density.... How about 50 floors!! That'd be a tough sell in that neighborhood, wouldn't it.

My lord... Tree

Hey! Skycrapers have feelings ya know!

Let's face it, the design isn't great, but still better planting trees there.

Sorry, but where exactly is this site? I can't picture it. Is it near Eau Claire Tower site? Or closer to, say, Waterfront?

South of the Peace Bridge

Directly south? Is it the lot surrounded by that awful chain link fence?

I believe so...it may also incorporate the sales centre, but I'm not 100% certain

This reminds me a lot of the Marquis. I think they could pull off a good looking building.

The building is so-so but I wouldn't mind a terraced suite overlooking Prince's Island Park.

This will look fantastic along the riverfront!

^^^ Sorry my bad I guess this rendering (above) is old, but I think it looks a lot better than the CAD drawings at the top IMHO.

Went today and signed up with Concord Pacific, so I could get in to see the show suite. It looks fantastic... very high end. I talked with the sale person and she said construction will be starting in Spring 2015.
