> The Delta (nee Ramada) was originally to be 30 stories; it was instead reduced to 25.
> The SaskPower Building was to be 20 stories; ended up as 13.
> The original Harvard twins (nee Victoria Plaza) were to be 90 metres, not 79.
> The Mosaic tower was to be 84.5 metres; it was reduced to 81.
I believe Chateau Qu'Appelle was originally intended as a 14 storey building, not an at-grade park
