Unfortunately though, there's not much that can be done for either of their facades so... yeah.

Agreed totally. The grain one is the worst though, BUT like MTS did to the old Bank of Montreal building, a little light, neon, what have you and their roof would look a lot better at night at least.
Richardson, needs, to just also add more light to the structure, for some reason winnipeg likes to be dull at night. Never understood this as most cities in the USA have amazing tall structures like ours, only they are lite up properly. Even if they are ugly during the day, and lights are a lot cheaper then recladding.
Ad for the former Tri Z, the issue with it, if you remember when it was built it did not look like this, that cladding fadded in a large way, the windows , some which have been replaced with tinted ones really make it look patch for the ones that are not. But I agree with people that Both the richardson and Tri are going to need to be updated just for the sake of energy efficancy sooner then later. Be nice if they put some new roofs on them also, Not sure but can they even add stories to these two buildings, it would seem the Tri Z would be perfect for a smaller one built a top it as it is such a massive building, I rather see this then another twin beside it.
And the Radisson needs to replace that concrete ..........PUKE
