ville-marie Le George - 45 étages

[SameGuy]

I know people are getting tired of the “horns might not happen” comments, but at this point, as a layperson, I can’t see how they could possibly work. The prefab that’s going up has a relief that looks to be about a foot off the sub structure; the concrete parapet on the roof appears significantly taller than the current angle of the prefab cladding could possibly cover up.

J'espère car je connais quelqu'un qui a acheté au 52e étage et il est ben stressé.

J’ai appris d’une source sûre que le projet à été annulé pour la vente et que les unités seront locatifs. Plusieurs remboursements ont déjà été effectués.

Donc, il reste encore une bonne dizaine d'étages à couler!

Crane is still in place. The "horns" will likely be a steel structure (if installed at all...) 

I still have hope

You’re not a layperson: what’s your technical take?

It's 100% still technically feasible. That concrete parapet may be necessary to help anchor/secure the steel structure. That being said, the esthetic of the top of the building is definitely gonna be different from the renders in order to account for that parapet. If they choose to completely forego the "horns", I think they may also have issues with the CCU because it's a pretty significant architectural feature.

Thanks, good to have input from the other side of the glass. 👍🏼
