The "spaceship on Harwood" was looking blue today, reflecting the sky. Other times I've seen it look a champagne colour when it's overcast.

Maybe it was because the light was just right but for the first time today I noticed the panels around the crown seem to have the same pattern of perforations as the panels on the sides (last two pics).

Never went on sale - at least not locally from what everyone has been able to gather.

Would love to know how units look, or what price they would fetch resale.

I have been going by and checking this building on a regular basis but for months now the visible progress continues to be very slow.

This will be remembered as one of Mr. Thom's last designs. Thanks for sharing.

Looks great, thanks.
They're probably working on the interior finishing.
The landscaping will be the last thing done.
Nice sized tree up top.

Bing Thom's architectural team did an amazing job on this building. It looks retro and futuristic at the same time. Loved his work.

This is probably the best looking condo tower built in the last decade. I wish developers would take note of the design and finishes and incorporate them into other developments.
