I though the same thing. I'm amazed at all the rental action we now have in the Beltline. Two Aura towers and now the Bentall tower starting construction.

Oh, I didn't realize that both or either of the Aura's were rental. That is great

I assume both, but not 100% sure. Aura I is for sure.

Crane is going up at Aura II. This one won't be in the proposal thread for long.

Aura I yet unfinished with Aura II crane going up. Never thought I would see this happen so quickly.

Question Surrealplaces did they use the tower sections from Aura I to build the tower portion of the crane for Aura II? When I was there they brought in a new jib (as I think it has to go through inspections before being used again).

Kind of belated answer, but yes

Nice to see this one in the construction section. Another tower to soon grace the Beltline skyline.

Did you see the NORR Architects photo in David Parker's Calgary Herald article today of Aura I + Aura II. The blue and red on them I really do not like.
