I think the lighting on Telus Sky had more to do with Telus, than the condo owners.

I'm not referring to who made the Union Jacks, I'm talking about how the Calgary Telus building was well-designed to be fully illuminated, as supported by the municipality. I think our policies, restrictions and conservative mentality made the idea of having a well-illuminated design to be a non-starter for many buildings here, including Vancouver House. Compared to the short Vancouver Telus Garden, the much taller Vancouver House is a way better building to be viewed from a distance as it is located at the edge of the water, and hence a waste to appear so dark at night. Imagine crossing Granville Bridge entering downtown and seeing a well-lit Vancouver House after dark.
