Hi all! Haven't posted heare for quite a while and hope everyone is well! The roof of the "Bow" looks like it could take another 10-15 floors if they wanted....of course, that isn't going to happen especially in this office leasing slowdown/recession.

Yeah they can’t even build the south block.

I think those might be grey colored roofs on the “fingertips” but the way the shadows fall make them look like hollow tubes. I know there is an awesome (indoor) theatre with tiered seating at the top of the east fingertip but perhaps that is a few levels down. I can’t say definitively.

I’ve seen it from multiple angles and it definitely looks hollow at the top. The theatre must be lower down.

Or maybe the Cleveland Indians' mascot Chief Wahoo. Which would be a bit ironic!

And now I will never be able to unsee it...

Some of my own of Ottawa. Poor quality, but somewhat different angles.

From Chaudiere Island (Zibi) new park at the west end:

CBD and Escarpment.

Tunney's area.

From the Alexandra Bridge:

From Gatineau shoreline:

This is what I see whenever I see images of the Human Rights Museum.:

The top of the atrium glass roof is higher than the 236 metre main roof if it helps. Google Earth height is 239 metres.

What happened is hardly what I call a market slowdown. The bubble imploded.
