Vancouver future render thread
 

I figured we were badly in need of one of these, and since I've been posting the odd render these days, thought we might as well have a specific thread for it.

I'll start her off with another quick one I did tonight using an image posted by Raggedy a while back. I've probably got some of the spacing wrong again on a few of the towers, so critiques are quite welcome. I've got Shangri-La, Hotel Georgia, Ritz Carlton, and Patina sitting in there.

Shit that is awesome, thanks!

It looks like Vanhattan. :)

Another one I did the other day, with incorrect spacing between Shangri-La and Ritz. Still kinda cool.

Another one I did from the numinous cam at night.

WOW like the rendering very true to scale, It is amusing because this is the same photos that adorn my MAC screen as wallpaper, now I can add this one from such a professional photographer

Love the first one, could you add Capitol to it as well, I think even Woodwards will be visible in that shot, along with probably a dozen of other projects going up in d/t south, although they probably wouldn't change the look much. We should have someone take a picture from that same vantage point every 4 months or at least every year and watch the changes.

^ Sure can, is it possible for someone with a better sense the project locations to maybe point out in red on that photo where approx. each site is???

Awesome picture! everything on the first one is almost perfect except Hotel
Georgia is a little bit too tall than what it suppost to be. The Capitol should
be in between the Scotia Tower and the Patina and its height should be
roughly the same as the T.D tower. I don't think the Woodwards will be
visible from this angle.

Not postive with Woodwards regarding that angle, but it possible it would fall between catherdal place and the royal bank tower.

Great job sono65. If I were to say anything needs to be altered, it would just be that the Hotel Georgia tower should probably be a bit more to the left (about in line with the Hotel Vancouver/Cathedral Place) and maybe a bit shorter since it'll be at a slightly lower elevation than One Wall Centre, so maybe it will look the same height as One Wall? Even still, the rendering gives a good idea and looks great.

Great rendering. It really puts Vancouver into perspective as a small-scale Manhatten in 2011.

Great job, thanks.

Looks great. On the first picture you'd also see the Fairmont Pacific Rim just to the right of the Shaw tower. It would pretty much be the exact same height as the Shaw tower (a copy/paste of the Shaw tower is all that would be needed).

Black is where Fairmont Pac Rim should be, green is what little of Woodwards you'd see (maybe a bit taller), light blue is where Hotel Georgia should be, and dark blue is where capitol should be. hope that helps as a bit of a guide. I don't really know what other significant projects there are at the moment.

:koko: I thought that building next to the light blue was already the hotel georgia...

^I think he's just trying to point out where it should be.

Maybe this helps...

Oops, thats totally what he meant.

My bad.

Capitol Residences
 

I would not at all think my judgment would be better than the others who already commented. But the more I looked at the above suggestions, the more I thought that Cap Residences would be a smidgen, a very defined term :) , more to the right of where currently shown.

Possibly?

Revised version including Shangri-La, Ritz Carlton, Fairmont Pacific Rim, Hotel Georgia, Patina, Capitol and Woodwards peaking through. Thanks guys for the
help on locations etc.

Thought this one deserves a repost as well.

^Awesome revision, thanks for going to the trouble of doing that. :cheers:
