I always thought that Irving would be the only company that might ever establish a building taller than the Bell Aliant tower. They deserve to have a building that defines the Saint John skyline since they have become such a superpower and Saint John is where it all started. They've defined the city economically, so why not physically as well? Unfortunately, the location they've chosen isn't ideal from a 'skyline' perspective because its outside the main cluster of highrises. Looking at skyline photos and Google Earth, Wellington Row at Union Street would be the best possible place for the next tallest. As for the blocking sun in Kings Square, it would be best to go tall and slim to reduce shadowing.
