Edmonton is to be commended for their bold and modern design. It's a wonderful design.

Definitely a contemporary design on the outside, but lacks substance on the inside. But definitely it stands out nicely in their "downtown". I just don't understand what the significance of the design is. I don't see how it ties into the city, because of all the words to describe Edmonton, I don't think contemporary fits.
