There is a vehicle overpass to the west and a pedestrian overpass to the east.

Train noise is train noise but they're fairly quiet in this section as they travel slowly.

I think these turned out pretty great and I hope they will retain their prominence as part of the New Westminster skyline.

The fins look great in the first shot.
Thanks!

Thank goodness for the tiny little white podiums at the bottom to soften the visual impact of the towers

Surely this ridiculousness didn't come from the city??
