I can't imagine that design faring well in EV. It would become fuel for the trash can fire on the first evening! LOL

When we live our lives in fear, the temperature is always 451.

i hope its not leaked here because that would kind of ruin the experience of seeing it revealed on thursday evening.

I'd be game for a post library pint!

Knowing some of the generalities without seeing renders would likely build even more anticipation.

Count me in too.

According to the article, you need to reserve seats through CLMC or Eventbrite?

Probably, I imagine there is a limited amount of space...

Bigtime · #**208** Posted **Sep 3, 2014, 7:22 PM**

Pretty sure there are no more seats to be had, it "sold out" quickly.

I'm disappointed every time I log in and don't have a private message with the library rendering.

Damn you!!!! I have a general sense of how it is laid out and its form, but nothing compares to a colour rendering. Really curious about how the cladding will look.

youngregina · #**212** Posted **Sep 3, 2014, 9:02 PM**

I wish I got to see the rendering early!! Will have to wait until someone posts it on this thread I suppose. I am not in the same elite circles as some forum members

Lucky you clarified that. Bet a few dozen pm's were about to come your way.

That sucks. I was really hoping to go

Thankfully there will be someone from SSP with a camera right

There's been some cost cutting and scaling back on this project due to the Riverwalk washroom stall closure. Sorry. Don't shoot the messenger...

I don't think that's even a library, bud.

How about Original Joe's on Stephen Ave? Half-price wine on Thursdays.

Surreal, you might be able to get tickets from someone here who can't make it. I think Chad said he booked tickets but might be working.

H.E.Pennypacker · #**219** Posted **Sep 4, 2014, 1:56 PM**

Today's the day! Much excitement!!

I'd be interested in taking Chad's tickets and meeting up for a drink after but my girlfriend has some family in town staying at our house ... Not sure if I have the luxury of leaving the house for this without repercussions

I think I'll still be able to make it. I'll just have to go while I'm technically still working. Call it my lunch break

When do we have to be there by?

I've never been to one of these things so I don't want to miss it.
