Please don’t tell me this building is going to be ruined by yet another visible mechanic “penthouse”. If it’s not a mechanical box it’s a visible window washing crane that never retracts.

Rooftop amenities is beginning to take shape and some glass was installed.



A late day concrete delivery today. Image taken at 6:35pm.

I know people like the boxes but I preferred KPF's version.

Agreed

I would have liked to have seen horizontal stripes on one of the middle boxes.

I see in od's posting where all the flying black panels where being installed last week.

This morning Ironworkers tacking on some of the last pieces (hundreds of parts) to this structure (don't know what you call it).

One day I will make an update of this great video, maybe with The Stack instead of the Shangri-La

After the wind got a hold of this panel, they went to Plan B.

I don't. I don't find the boxes particularly Vancouver-esque, but that other design is way too corporate-America

[Zepfancouver]

Yesterday, the delivery of 3 wooden crates, containing BMU parts?
Today, roofing that steel structure with what looked like Q-decking.

[Zepfancouver]

Assembling the BMU and it's huge, maybe largest one in Vancouver.
The comparison to the Shangri-La is captured at the same zoom level and The Stack is also further back.

It's a unit from Gondolas in Design, GinD

Looking into 2022 looks like it is going to be again really exciting. We will be handling many projects that will keep us busy and will require our full attention and utmost efforts:
- The Stack at 1133 Melville in Vancouver (Canada).

Cool! Thanks. After viewing their homepage http://gind.es/ I see the model they're installing.
I left this section out of the video thinking it was part of a staircase for rooftop access, it's part of the BMU

[Zepfancouver]

Start of the observation deck windows (nice clear glass).
After this is completed, it looks like time to schedule (or have already scheduled) a Top Climbing Crew for dismantling the crane.

A YouTuber Visit Vancouver - Canada. posted this, I believe it's The Stack
