EDMONTON | The Edmontonian | 278 M / 912 FT | 71 FLOORS - Page 2

Well if this is office space it probably would be taller than 545 feet. Most 50-story office towers are in the 600 to 700 foot range.

Residential, market and non, retail main.

Cold SRX, I posted your render in SSC, I hope that is alright with you. I felt this was important enough to merit the action. It would be really cool to see an altered Skyline shot, with this added to it.

Hey now.

RHINO · #25 Posted **Apr 30, 2013, 7:15 AM**

*sighs* It was intended as a gesture of pleasant surprise.

I'd be very surprised if this got built at the current size given the area, but it would be quite a skyline changer if it ever did.

Coldrsx · #28 Posted **Apr 30, 2013, 6:18 PM**

^concur... about the building part.

CanadianCentaur · #29 Posted **May 14, 2013, 8:49 PM**

545 ft is 166 m. Whoa, that would make this proposal the tallest of any skyscraper in Edmonton - if it *ever* gets built. That's even taller than 102 St. Centre (Manu 2), which is at 161 m.

Harley613 · #30 Posted **May 14, 2013, 9:32 PM**

Interesting...the tallest proposal in Ottawa (where I live) right now is 166.2 metres! We are both possibly getting a new tallest at almost exactly the same height.

Also, a bit more on the Edmontonian proposal for Edmonton...

71 storeys

40 condo
18 hotel
13 commercial office and recreational
3 sky lobbies
71st floor 'PUBLIC SKY DECK'

--------

Can mods change this to 71 storeys, call it 745'

KevinFromTexas · #33 Posted **Oct 10, 2013, 10:28 PM**

Now that is cool. Besides the name, it also has a few design characteristics that remind me of our tallest.

TallBob · #34 Posted **Oct 11, 2013, 6:01 AM**

745' for Edmonton, translates into 950' for Calgary!! I hope this get's built!

phillyskyline · #35 Posted **Oct 11, 2013, 10:36 AM**

So what the official proposed height, 545ft or 745ft?

Coldrsx · #36 Posted **Oct 11, 2013, 9:22 PM**

745 ish

canucklehead2 · #37 Posted **Oct 12, 2013, 9:52 PM**

Even though I have my doubts about its viability and the developer behind it, as do many on here from what I've read, I do hope it gets built! It's about time Edmonton starts to push past those old airport overlay restrictions... And I hope it's the start of a trend towards taller and taller towers in the core...

Surrealplaces · #38 Posted **Oct 13, 2013, 8:57 PM**

^I doubt this will get built (at least at that many floors), but if it ever did, it would be totally dramatic...and yes, probably spur on a trend for taller towers.
