God forbid that we'd want to be entertained. |

Dubai, Manhattan, and Paris are all very different but come from the same place. The world is a far more interesting place for having all 3. Dubai isn't my cup of tea, but I know I'm not going to be bored if I visit. |

Anyway, the whole notion of spectacle seems contrary to the down-to-earth attitude that often characterizes the Canadian identity. |

Chad, thanks for the construction update. I'm going to go to Calgary one day and do a construction update when I get there. :)

Let's not forget there's reprocussions to spectacle such as seen in Dubai. It's a very convincing tool to keep the masses at peace. It's no wonder places, past and present, with huge disparities tend to rely heavily on spectacle.

One Bloor has a ways to go before it's done. Looks like us Calgarians will have to wait a while before we can claim top spot on the list ;)

haha yeah man! :) Even still, we'll probably only have it for a couple months - a year. I'm just stoked for us to take two spots on this listing with both over 220 meters :D
|
4 years and the top 4 towers down at One Yonge are the only thing that are keeping Calgary from the top spot.
If One Yonge is not approved (or downsized) then in 2017/2018 the top spot will be theirs. |
Brookfield Place will be done in 2017 :) Telus Sky in 2018!

Brookfield Place being steel will rise fast and likely in the final year will track down One Bloor before One Bloor is even finished. Most likely Calgary gets the top spot at the end of 2017, but only for a short time.. |

Truth be told, we're just happy to be on the list lol. |
haha I don't want them to die! Just maybe get stalled for a few months :P
|
did calgary ever have the top spot with the Bow? or did Trump keep that from them?
