Nice pics. I like how the low rise middle building breaks up the vista between Main and Fort.... It eliminates that windswept void feeling. Definitely not as flashy as the tower, but a big improvement nonetheless.

I will be returning to visit family this spring. Cannot wait to see TNS, the new stadium, and how much this project takes shape. I really wish Portage and Main had removed the barricades, but I guess you have to take the good with the bad...

Now if I think of it, I like the vibe of it. 300 Main could've been a more light-themed tower, but it's ok that the finalised design feels rather heavy. I always tend to associate winnipeg with the "financial vibe" of many east coast north american cities, so this heavy theme works imo.
