It's funny...I honestly think EAP looks best on a cloudy day.

I find it's easier to see buildings in more suggestive, directional lighting than any blinding glare from sunlight...certainly the pictures make it look that way.

I'm waiting to see what this one will look like once window blinds have been installed. Probably won't look as good.

Nice shot Jimby! Great colors on it. Is there a version without the white post card oval thing on it?

EAP looked super dusty when I drove by it yesterday. I can only imagine how nice it will shine once the window cleaners get it finished!

Really turned out well I think.
Recent reports on the state of the office market in Calgary make seem likely the second tower will proceed sooner rather than later.

Started on spec and now almost completely leased!
What's next?
EAP west tower or Centennial Place 3 or City Centre or Herald Square or Imperial Oil?

The "smudge" of whatever spilled on the East side of the tower is pretty noticeable in the bright morning light...are they going to do anything about that?

they will clean the glass for sure. this is the best angle for me. it shows how tall the tower really is, and it really is tall. lol.
btw: where the hell is the led's? i wish they would let them shine.

I'm thinking the crown and LED lighting will be all turned on when they do some sort of official opening for the building.
