Cold, for the love of God, at least put a disclaimer at the top of the post. This is painful!
But a little fun, I do agree.

Architectural Rendering of Downtown Exterior



Welcome to the University of Alberta Enterprise Square downtown information website.

Our vision for the University of Alberta’s Enterprise Square is a hub where form and function celebrate research, learning, and partnership.

Our mission is to create a sustainable centre which advances innovation and provides collaborative opportunities for community and economic development.

"The modern university has a leading role to play in the daily life of its communities. The great universities of the future will have even stronger connections with their communities as they foster diversity, creativity and economic growth. Our presence downtown will help us meet our obligations. The link to the history of the city and province, too, in the shape of the historic building, is a strong symbol of the University’s contribution to the growth of Alberta."

^kevin, i ask you as a friend to not post things such as this. Giving Edmonton false hope is like giving bush a real key to the "football".

This photoshoping is fun. Here's an end of the week treat. Herzog & de Meuron's proposal (for Gazprom in St.Petersburg) relocated to Edmonton.
Now that's a badass design. No more extrusions!
