don't get me wrong, i quite like Atelier and 'run of the mill' in vancouver would be amazing in most other cities.

it is all relative

The saving grace for this project is the height.
Never been keen on those recessed balconies - i.e. like West One or Shaw Tower.

The tallest Yaletown Park tower blocks the Homer Building corner of the site - so I only see the part of the site closer to the concrete office building. All I can see are piles of dirt and a caterpillar or two - but I will see the tower rise - it should line up with Atelier. I'm hoping after both are completed I'll still be able to see the top of the Hotel Georgia tower above them.

One of the other forummers posted great pics from I think Jardine's Lookout.
