It's an awesome building that is going to do more to elevate the design standards of the city then any other building before it. Can't wait to lay eyes on this sucker in person.

I hope the South retail block of the Bow, the one that they tore the York Hotel down for, is still slated to go up after the Bow is complete. The article states it is still on hold.

^I believe it has to be completed one year from when the main tower is occupied.

It is pretty awesome. I can't get over how cool the skyline looks already from the North and the NE. Centre Street was already the nicest angle to drive into downtown, but now... wow.

Here's a taste of what it will look like when completed.

^ That is stunning. Eighth Avenue Place has also quietly reached its peak, only 20 odd metres shorter than Suncor.

The muthafata Bow is a sexy beast from the centre street angle.

Now picture that same level of architectural quality in bridge form. Cause that's what we're getting soon as well.
Oh god, I shouldn't have gone there....

Great to see.

That's for the retail space on the main floor, and the mezzanine level (+15 level). The office space is spoken for.
The retail will be nice, but it isn't a huge amount. Basically four spaces, two each on each floor, one on each side of the elevator core in the middle.

Didn't they reduce the retail space as a result of the recession?

So do normal people have access to the Sky garden they're putting in there, or is it for tenants only?
