From just about anywhere it can be seen it's quite... overpowering.

Size isn't everything ... (er, well, sometimes it is, but that's another issue, er...)
What I mean, seriously, is that The Bow is indeed a MAGNIFICENT building, and stands out boldly on the undulating high prairie Calgary Skyline.

But would a building THAT big look right in downtown Vancouver? Beautiful and Magnificent as The Bow is- and it is - it would somehow overpower everything here and thus put the symmetry of the Vancouver CBD out of whack totally, IMHO.
