Joseph Pettick - lead architect SaskPower Building working on the drawings for it with the steel frame visible from his window.

Pettick's office would have been in the McCallum-Hill Building, where Hill Centre Tower I now stands.
Seeing Pettick working on a floor plan reminds me of my early days as a draftsman (hence my name) 45 years ago. Pencil on paper, no CAD, and a lot of manual calculations!
That panel standing on his desk (upper right) appears to be a sample of the sunshade covering the south-facing tower windows. These were removed during the recent renovation.

Though, a new La Senza being built is surprising. Their current 2 stores are prehistoric so it is long overdue.

When la Vie en Rose relocated to the large space adjacent to the escalators (on the main floor), I spoke with the manager and told her how nice their new location is. She told me that it is just temporary, as they will be moving to a space across from American Eagle Outfitters. I assumed it would be the current La Senza spot, but it looks like it might be to the former Call It Spring location.

Cornwall is dying and I don't think there is a way around that. The mall needs to get more exclusive-to-Cornwall stores instead of more one-of-three locations in the city.

I didn't realize Bentley was gone from Cornwall. Has Roots pulled out yet? It seems dead all the time when I've been in the mall the last couple of years.
