Start one. You don't need to suggest it like someone else should do it.
Dude (or Dudette) - the two folks were talking school. It was giving them an option. Why the heck would I start a school thread - I'm on this one to read and participate in a Telus Sky discussion.

Because for a second there you came across as truly interested.

I'm really interested to see how construction of the superstructure progresses with the curves in the building .. We don't have to wait long now to see it starting to twist.

Some comparisons to renders posted by others early on in this thread. Are people still hating the black? Also, I wonder if those second floor windows will swing open per renders - I suspect not but who knows.
I think the black looks great! stoked to watch this baby rise!
I hope they did their research though, black cladding will get quite hot in the summer and can get quite cold in winter, there will be a lot of expansion / contraction on that cladding.
I suspect the rotating windows have been VE'd out. The black is risky as it shows all defects and imperfections (the same way a black vehicle does). Thankfully the panel spans here aren't massive, so the tolerances should be minimal.
With regards to the sections on the 2nd and 3rd levels which go out over the Centre St sidewalk: are they to be completed later, when the prep area is no longer necessary, or have they been scrapped?

I share your enthusiasm, but am wondering why you think black cladding would get colder in the summer than other coloured cladding?

I was wondering the same thing looking at it a second time. It seems to project outward towards 7th Ave but not along the Centre Street side. hopefully it's a cantilever or something to be added after the concrete.

There appears to be connection points on the floors in the appropriate areas to accommodate something - time will tell.
I would imagine that due to the location of the crane it will be added on using steel closer to completion. Although it will be interesting to see how they close up those opening as completion of the lower floors progress. With the crane in that spot those cantilevered bit will be the last to be completed.
