^ Thanks, and no problem. Now that I've moved downtown I walk by the site very frequently just out of my own curiosity. It's not hard to snap pics whilst doing so.

To anyone in the know: Delta and Stantec are both slated to go at the same time, right? If so I'll have to start separating my updates into two threads once it gets to grade.

That is one massive excavation there! How much is for this tower and how much is for the rest of the arena district.

^ It's all going to be a single large shared parkade for the Stantec and Delta towers and the arena, as I understand it.

Myself included! The design is pretty decent, and it fits well into the cluster of buildings that will surround it.

I think this one will surprise a lot of people.

I don't understand the hate for this building. While it will never be recognized as one of Canada's most beautiful skyscrapers, it is a perfectly acceptable building on par with most other large towers in Canada.

It's going to be pretty amazing visiting Edmonton in a couple years when these buildings start rising in the skyline...should give downtown a completely different look.

it will dwarf every tower in edmonton to the extreme. in some angles it will appear more than twice the size and height as ever other tower in the city. it is going to rock.:pimp daddy::

You could probably fit North Battleford/Battleford and every town from there to Saskatoon in that building!
