They must have stopped working on the top portion. Nothing has been happening for while.

Looking at the building in the foreground, I think what Calgary needs next is a tower on top of a heritage podium a'la Hearst.
+1! Too many heritage buildings lost to modern construction.

There is a crane on the roof but the 2 that were there for construction are most certainly down.

Speaking of crane on the roof (which sometimes remain as window cleaning infrastructure) how will they be window cleaning for a building like this?

Calgary does it better

IMO, the TELUS building in Calgary beats the TELUS building in Vancouver hands down. Taller, sleeker, more elegant ..... People in Vancouver will hiss and disagree of course, ... but too bad.

When you say "the TELUS building in Vancouver", do you mean the abomination that is Telus Garden or do you mean Vancouver House?

Telus Garden:



Vancouver House:



Reasonable people could certainly disagree whether they prefer Telus Sky or Vancouver House (both beautiful and daring in their own ways). Surely no reasonable person could prefer Telus Garden to Telus Sky?

I don't care for either Telus Garden or Telus House. One is boring and one looks awkward, like it's going to tip over or something.
