All those tall towers proposed for Lebreton (if built) will finally poke above that awful tabletop that is the Queen Elizabeth towers and neighbouring buildings. From many angles it will add some much needed height variation!
I can see this beast rising from my balcony every day. I think it's about 1/3 of the way up, climbing about one floor per week, so I outlined a super approximate guess as to just how high this building should get. At this rate there's a chance it could top out by the end of the year, but I would expect it to slow down as winter approaches. The building may turn out to be an ugly abomination, but the height is pretty exciting to see.
Roughly the same view with the trinity project in there as well. Heights are accurate, but widths may vary a bit
Looks like it's 2-3 floors away from 50% of it's total height...I think that once it clears Ottawa's fabled 27 storey threshold, it will really stand out on the horizon from the rest of center town...

I could see the building when driving on the 417 eastbound at Carling. Its already quite visible despite the decline in height around bayswater.
I count 18 floors! OOooouuu this is getting excited! A new tallest for Ottawa!
Technically the tallest in Ottawa is Place de Ville C which was completed in 1971!! So only took 47 years... (assuming this surpasses PDV by year end).
