Other than the still dodgy blend of lower box facades near the base, the tower is looking more and more like a credible project I'd proudly let stand over our skyline. I just hope this height race continues for a few more towers yet and we'd enter a whole new league, skyline wise anyway...

Is this the last opportunity for City Council to nix the project if they so desire? I hope they don't, personally. Just build it already...

Very good news to hear. Has the developer talked a timeline or is that still a bit premature?

Very good news indeed! What I wouldn't give to see a high-res skyline rendering with a completed Ice District & Quarters Hotel tower in it... Never mind Encore, North, Emerald, etc...

Still seems a bit far fetched, is there really demand for something like this in Edmonton?

Demand for a hotel, condos, office, etc.... sure, but at what $ and what year.
