It’s crazy how tall Edmonton’s newest look in that shot. Stantec and Marriott definitely bring Edmonton’s skyline to the next level.

Indeed. Keep in mind that until recently, Manulife (blue tower above red ATCO) was our maximum overlay height limit, 150m (146m).

Agreed. I was just about to say Edmonton up until now never hit the 500ft mark. Now they will ne 333ft taler then their former tallest. Pretty big change for a skyline.

The western central skyline. I always love this shot because you cannot actually see the Downtown skyline.

What project is designated for that parking lot in the middle of that last picture? On Dundas St., I don't recognize it.
