Nice looking building. I like the perspective on the first one and the inclusion of the light. Cool wireframe sculpture too

Thanks Runmonty, the sculpture actually has an entrance on either side so you can enter it. :)

Ditto here. Any chance of any pics from inside the sculpture. Maybe at night would be cool also.

You have some of the most awesome architecture at your feet and you show it so well.

Thanks, Barefoot! Calgary had two of the top ten projects in the world for 2012 as selected by Azure magazine. Not so bad for a little cowtown. :)

Very cool shots of this building. If my failing memory hasn't completely given up you had numerous shots of this thing being built last year. Nice to see it finished.

Thanks, Iggy. Been following it for at least three years. It was not long into construction before i realized just how much it would affect our skyline.
