I think this deserves to be posted also in this thread.

And here are photos from the
sub-penthouse on the 42nd floor. It was like being up in the sky, but unfortunately the suite itself turned out to be too small for us. Oh well, our visit still made for some nice photos of the sunny Metrotown!
Here we go! The tallest building in Burnaby. Notice that there is no monkey business with the floor numbering in Sovereign. Even floor 13 is there and only 4 is missing. Interesting how the condo elevators can stop at the hotel floors. They have a different lobby, but I am not sure if they use the same elevators.
The suite was facing southeast, but Burnaby Mountain was visible from the balcony. Mount Baker could not be seen in this hazy weather.
Deer and Burnaby lakes. Lougheed town center in the distance.
Next is Station Square complex. Imagine five towers going up here!
Metropolis, the largest shopping center in all B.C.
Burnaby's second tallest tower is Metroplace. Silver next to it.
Woops, Crystal Mall looks small from over 130 meters above.
Modello will be going up in this view. Central Park in the background and hazy Richmond in the distance.
Check out the size of these balconies! This is the standard size in Sovereign with some units having double the size! There are smaller suites than these balconies!!
Metrotown panorama. Tower by tower Metrotown is starting to look like a city.
