    Don't know how truthful this is (FIFA has moved the World Cup a number of times in their history), but it's interesting nonetheless. It looks like Qatar will lose 2022 but who will become the new host is really up in the air. FIFA propose to move 2022 World Cup from Qatar to USA and Canada http://www.sportskeeda.com/football/fifa-propose-move-2022-world-cup-qatar-to-usa-canada/

    On the webcam for Roccabella, it looks like the crane was increased in height for Deloitte

    Just remember, there were rumours of an Avenue 2 ! Maybe they'll go for even taller!

    In the old days, Montreal led the way. Today, we are too busy watching everyone else and then wondering if we should follow. This was a winning proposition to have the bars opened til 6 and to have it defeated is a massive blow.

    La Presse recently had an article claiming Montreal's downtown was the second most populated (~80,000) on the continent after NYC. I can't find the article anymore..

    I can't tell you how much I love the glass, just perfection. Fits in perfectly with the contrasts of the Bell Centre and Windsor Station

    So does this mean the lighting scheme is still ongoing? Can we hope to see the entire stadium and tower lit up?

    The Tour Terminal is on much higher ground, no? and it's further north so the perspective will be different. Anyway, still a beautiful and meaningful addition to the skyline!

    I think it should be a bit taller than that, no? It should be nearly as tall as the Marriott (139m vs 133m). Unless the 133m is measured from St Antoine?

    Jimmy Fallon said he will discuss it tonight! He gave major props to the Canadiens organization.

    Yeah, this is $$$ cladding. Love it.

    That makes me happy. Last year when Jackman was on Letterman promoting the Wolverine movie, Letterman asked him about the new X-Men film he was filming (which was Days of Future Past in Montreal), and when Jackman told him they were shooting it in Montreal, Letterman got all excited and they both went off on a tangent about how much they both love the city. We live in a great place! Let's be proud of it

    The guy's mtlurb handle is duceppemarois - I can't see why he would start conspiracy theories against Couillard and Harper, can you?
  15. Chris1989
    Yeah there's no way it's 116m. I heard once it would be 93m max.

    Perspective is everything, isn't it? The first picture makes it seem like it is the same height as the South tower of Desjardins, yet the second picture has it seemingly taller.

    I work in the area and every morning, there is a ton of noise coming from the site. Stuff is happening, but I don't know what kind of stuff
  18. Chris1989
    I remember last year, they said this tower should begin construction by April-May 2014. Who knows, maybe it's still true?

    TOM was originally listed as 122 metres. Altitude is 124m. Altitude is much more "classe" and has higher floor plates.

    Third crane going up at the site!

    In 3 days we went from this: to this: Amazing.

    Really? I remember quite a lot of press about the Bell Centre projects and many of the Gazette writers seemed excited about it, even specifically mentioning something to the fact they are the first major construction projects in 20 years. And one of the main writers made the effort to get the correct information about them. The Gazette has some pretty shitty editorial journalists, but to label the entire newspaper as "negative about these projects" is extreme.

    I thought they were building the elevator shaft for now? That's what I thought.

    People will spin anything. Is the PQ to blame? How could we possibly know for sure? What I do know is this fact: Quebec had a net loss of 11,887 residents due to interprovincial migration (departures minus arrivals) in the 12 months from October 2012 to September 2013, compared to a loss of 7,700 people in the corresponding period of 2011-12 and a loss of 4,394 in 2010-11. I'm tired of the federalists blindly blaming the PQ everytime the numbers don't look good and I'm tired of the separatists refusing to look at numbers and have an actual discussion about them. Fact is, the numbers increased to their highest levels in over a decade, and it just so happens that it started in the month FOLLOWING the election of the first PQ government in a decade. Can we have a real discussion without throwing facts away, or is that too ridiculous to consider?

    I love this city so much.
