I guess I'm one of the only people who thinks this, but the Bow is an awfully boring building to me. It doesn't match anything else in the Calgary skyline and as such, looks more out of place than I would in the NBA. It's tall'ish and it's glass, and it has a silly sculpture in front of it, and I guess that that's enough to win the hearts of most folk. Maybe it's popular because it is so unique in that skyline, but here's my point: I joined this board just to say this, really-- I hope that when Edmonton begins to build new highrises in the coming years, and if that 72 (or 71) storey condo tower is built, well, I hope it looks absolutely nothing like the Bow.

Then again, it might just be jealousy... but I doubt it.
