I counted 23 floors from above the exposed section fronting Alberni. Seemed like 15 more to go (unless that top level is just a wall circling the roof.

I think those column facing to the east also change from four columns to three columns around the 23rd floor from the floor plan.

From Graham Construction on Twitter today Alberni by Kengo Kuma residential tower in downtown #YVR continues to rise! This video shows the Level 26 concrete slab pour. Last week we started Level 28 slab pour!

I'd have loved to have seen either the dark or light panels to be olive or forest green for dramatics and more akin to a tree.

I mean if it was supposed to look like a tree then maybe..

are the mesh panels next to the anodized panels for the japanese gardens on the terraces or what are they for

officedweller · #**588** Posted **Jun 20, 2021, 11:55 PM**

That would make sense - they are balcony enclosures.

Nice - cantilevering outwards now.

Zepfancouver · #**591** Posted **Jun 30, 2021, 10:57 PM**

Must be a dramatic view (and a little uneasy for some) to look straight down from that north-East corner balcony on the finished 29th floorplate

This IG had some video of the crane lift:

There are lots of very interesting West End views of this from between other towers to the south, west and north. These will only become better as it rises to full height.

how many floors to go?

Klazu · #**596** Posted **Jul 4, 2021, 6:23 PM**

I was in the area on Thursday and think I counted roughly 30 floors so a dozen more to go?

jollyburger · #**597** Posted **Jul 4, 2021, 6:26 PM**

They were level 28 a month ago so you assume there's probably not a lot left.

Facade Builder · #**598** Posted **Jul 4, 2021, 7:51 PM**

32nd floor pour tomorrow.

dreambrother808 · #**599** Posted **Jul 5, 2021, 3:27 PM**

Pictures don't do justice to how dramatic this building is from street level on Alberni. That upward swooping cut has a real wow factor.

Klazu · #**600** Posted **Jul 5, 2021, 7:01 PM**

Yeah, it has a really good presence. I like everything about this project so far and with a dozen more floors it will actually appear rather tall. It will only be eclipsed by other tall towers hiding it from sight.
