Exactly. Architecturally, this is pretty basic. The problem is mainly how high my hopes were. For some reason I had hoped for Calgary's answer to the Chrysler Building, Trans America Pyramid, or the John Hancock Centre. The City Centre comparisons are dead on. That said, I like City Centre, and this is even better.

A hotel or public element would have taken this to another level. As is, it's just your basic office tower, but a bit taller and a bit higher standard.
