So 4 years until it's done, apparently.

Interest from Frank Gehry? Wow! I can just imagine how this conversation went:
Malhotra: Frank, would you be interested in designing Ottawa's tallest building?
Gehry: Yes, definitely!
Malhotra: Would you be interested in working with Claridge to do it on the cheap... we do have a reputation to uphold here you know?
Gehry: Ah, no. Say, Bill, I'm driving through a tunnel... think I'm losing you. Click.
A Gehry building would quite likely have been awesome. Who's Pontarini anyway?
