CALGARY | Mark on 10th | 110M / 361FT | 34 FLOORS
I figured there might as well be thread for this one. Demolition has started at site.

I really like this one.

Mark on 10th, with 6th and tenth to the right, close to the Calgary Tower. Both projects are close in height, and compliment each other quite well, imo.

Looks to be 35 floors unless I mis-counted.
|
This is great for the west side of the city. There is a lot of filling in to do between Mark on 10th and Vantage Pointe. Astoria and a few new projects need to come on board and the west side of downtown will come alive again.
|
It could be actually. Since the time of the original posting the architect had said they were adding floors.

Very nice project.
|
With Calla wrapping up, I kinda figured that Qualex would be focusing on moving Mark on Tenth forward. It will be nice to see since there are to many vacant lots in this area.
|
According to the Architect (Rafii Associates) the building is 110M/361feet. and 34 storeys. That sounds about right, but I'm wondering if that's roof height. A 34 floor building with that piece on top would normally have a higher structural height I would think.
Arriva has 34 floors, and a structural height of 420' |

Glad to see a pile driver on site :tup:
|
It is on site but it has not done any work as of yet.

No work yet, but I see that they have at least moved it :). It looks like a few extra construction materials have arrived also.
|
They have started drilling the piling holes. Hopefully the snow won't slow them down!

Still not much action, but more supplies have arrived and the pile driver has moved.

Nice to see 2 pile drivers. It won't be long before excavation starts.
|
Qualex-Landmark is going full bore. They now have three caisson drills working onsite. I think they will be digging before First.
http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2876/8...c61e3b32_c.jpg |
I noticed they now have three. They must be anxious tom get this one going!
|
|
Pile drivers are gone and the digging has started. Just as I thought that Mark would get digging before First.

I think they want this building to start to rise to increase sales, before 6th and Tenth and maybe Astoria get going.
|
is this building experiencing problems with the flooding now? are any holes flooded?
