Also, it appears that the black is now a permanent design feature of the building. I am in love. THIS is how you do architecture!

The entire +15 level will be open air during the summer even! <3

I believe it will only be accessible to residents of the apartment portion, unfortunately.

Telus Sky and all of its trimmings were unanimously approved by the Calgary Planning Commission last night. This one is a-go for late summer Amazing...

Yeah I wonder what the 3 retail bays will be, especially the world class restaurant. Sounds intriguing.

This promises to be one of the most beautiful skyscrapers on the continent. Calgary rising.

All but two of the retail bays of Art Central are now vacated. All that remain are Billy's News and DeVille Cafe. Both will be closed by the end of the month Demolition will commence soon after!
