Brookfield Place has officially surpassed the Bow in height, earning the title of Western Canada’s tallest building.
Calgary’s new skyscraper — under construction downtown between 1st and 2nd streets and 6th and 7th avenues S.W. — is now complete to level 56, the top of the building. It has reached its final height of 247 metres — 10 metres taller than the Bow, previously the tallest structure on the Calgary skyline. |
Is the crown being built on top of the current steel frame or is it already basically topped out? Cause if it's already topped out than that is seriously disappointing since you can't even notice the height difference and we won't be getting any new challengers for decades.
Edit: Just read the article. weak.
