Here's hoping the scuppers are for emergency use only and that there are regular, insulated, heat-traced, through-slab drains on each of the terraces.
That's a great point. In the rendering a moment ago prior to your comments I was thinking accent lighting. I haven't seen the site up close for a while now.

Then again, who wouldn't want to break off Excaliburs sword every morning?

Wait, there's no happy people in Ottawa? I see lots of happy people around, especially poolside in the summer. Why on earth would they render a closed for winter terrace covered in snow in ice??? LOL.

Didnt know a pool and a rooftop terrace was added to this! What an amazing build. I really hope it inspires others in the city.

Took this one today. Height comparison between the two Relevés and Moon. Tallest tower has one floor to go by my count.

Toronto firm hopes to break ground on multi-tower Kanata North project in 2025

The company is already constructing 23- and 29-storey residential highrises connected by a mixed-use podium at the corner of Albert and Lyon streets.

Byrne said the development, which includes 567 residential units and 20,000 square feet of retail space, should be ready for occupancy next year.

This is actually happening. Looking forward to this development even thought it will be done over the next 8 years.
