As Promised. I took some more photos of Kelowna yesterday and figured you all would love to see them
This area feels quite urban now. The UBCO tower should be going up on the right down the street
This is the same street looking south, its definitely feeling pretty dense
I love Kelowna's rainbow crosswalk, very inviting and progressive and adds colour
From the boardwalk along the lake, on the right you can see the rapidly rising Waterfront by the park project, it's impact on the skyline is massive and i'm very excited for the Eli (42 floors) to top out. Perhaps by next visit around Christmas it may top out.
Looking east down Bernard street has a real big city vibe going for it now, much improved from when I was a kid growing up here
As of right now, the towers in this picture are still Kelownas Tallest, Well the tallest of these towers anyway. But it's reign is coming to an end quickly
Another picture showcasing the tallest buildings near tugboat beach. You can see the clock tower that used to be a water fountain by the bus depot (queensway exchange)
Another angle of the 4 towers from a prior pic noticeable from bernard. Gives the city a clearer dense core that does indeed feel like a proper city.
Though short in stature, Ellis has a visible urban canyon developing
Work on the 19 story 1333 Bertram rental tower has begun, will be a nice addition to this part of downtown
Hope you enjoyed my updates from yesterday
