FCP is a huge tower in both height and square footage, it has IIRC 2.8 million square feet of space, roughly 3 times that of Bay Adelaide Centre East.

Well, 67*37,000

Proud Day for Canada!

First time in 6 years a tower not from Calgary or Toronto has been on this most privileged list!!

Vancouver was the last city to pull the trick back in 2008 with Shangrila-Vancouver

Great news for Edmonton!

travis3000 · #**1186** Posted **Nov 26, 2014, 5:27 PM**

I still don't see it on the list

koops65 · #**1187** Posted **Nov 26, 2014, 10:29 PM**

It's there now... where are all the Edmonton illustrators?

tele75 · #**1188** Posted **Nov 26, 2014, 10:45 PM**

I don't think there are any.

WhipperSnapper · #**1189** Posted **Nov 27, 2014, 1:15 AM**

Yeah, wake up Chris Malayko from his 10 year slumber

Quite right. Our country is much stronger when we have many little engines of growth from coast to coast. Having everything happen in 1-2 big cities isn't healthy nor does it do much for national unity/cohesion.

Glad to see Edmonton on the list. Maybe Montreal, Ottawa, or even Niagara Falls can get on there.

Great drawing as always Koops, but I think it's going to be bluish gray, not gold:

^Yes, it is bluish-grey. The first rendering they used shows it with a sunset reflection.

koops65 · #**1194** Posted **Nov 27, 2014, 7:03 AM**

All right, I changed it... and yes, I used that early render and was fooled by it...

Daveography · #**1195** Posted **Nov 27, 2014, 4:15 PM**

^ Awesome Koops, looks great!

Black Star · #**1196** Posted **Nov 27, 2014, 4:20 PM**

Though I don't love the design, I'm happy to see Edmonton join the other major Canadian cities (save Ottawa) with a major skyscraper. Edmonton's skyline is somewhat of a plateau so well-placed peak will give it some flair.

caltrane74 · #**1199** Posted **Nov 27, 2014, 5:25 PM**

The list is all above 200 meters again!

Of course, L Tower and Ice Condos 2 will be off the list shortly, I'm assuming.

koops65 · #**1200** Posted **Nov 27, 2014, 5:50 PM**

Yes but 45 Bay and Telus Sky will join the list soon...
