Under Construction

This is one of the newest condos being built here in Edmonton. This is The Pearl. It sits on Jasper Avenue and will be 35 stories tall. It will provide a wonderful view of the river valley or the downtown skyline depending on which way you face

[Shirley Chetwynd]

Buildings seem to be getting higher and higher, nice capture of the new construction site.

[Cathie]

I'm feeling naive (well, ignorant is probably a better term), but I had no idea, Brian, that Edmonton had such tall buildings. Bigger city than I thought.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great capture. I bet the condos will be expensive because of its great views.

[Kerri]

Cool shot

[KWind]

Wow... It's tall. I can't believe people go in those cranes!!

[Mike Pittman]

Cool!

[Jane Pittenger]

Be fun to go see the views when the time comes

[🍁April 🍁]

It always amazes me how these buildings are made.

[Pam Hawkes]

Nice capture! There are always some new structures going up.

[Paula]

You'll have to document the progress for us!

[Kristin]

35 stories - that must be right up there in the running for tallest in Edmonton?

[Sally Ings]

Think I would prefer the river view! It's most fascinating to see these tall buildings being built.

[Sheila]

Nice cranes!

[Graham Thresher]

Great record.

[Ellen Young]

Progress!!

[Ann Jones]

Super capture! That building certainly has an advantage over the surrounding ones!

[John]

Interesting view of downtown and its skyscrapers.

[eyeseeu (deb)]

Wow - it really towers over the rest of the area.

[Kim]

It's huge! No doubt the views will be great.

[Rohini Gupta]

A very familiar site since i live in a big city too. Lovely shot.

[❀ Lynn]

Yep, Alberta cities are starting to build UP and not just OUT! Nice shot Brian.

[Fisher Family]

It will certainly be a great vantage point for photos when it's complete! - nice shot!

Ian

[Laura]

Brilliant.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

You'll have to go check one out and take some photos when it's done! Just kidding!

[cmc]

How fun is that to watch the sky line develop. The building looks like such a skeleton now.

[Sian B]

A very tall building to be!

[Pyrrhula]

Love them , hate them. Love the construction , the technique`s . The height and massive frightens me . Nevertheless , a wonderful pic of it

[Molly]

Good to see this view of Edmonton. Not sure Id like to live so high up though, despite the views.

[KAL]

Wow! That is so much taller than the other buildings! Wonderful capture!

[Kathy Burzynski]

Awesome view!

[Nancy]

This is an awesome shot..great textures!

[bkb in the city]

@http365proj They are getting taller here due to the fact that they lifted a height restriction that used to be in place

[bkb in the city]

@cathieg With the greater Edmonton area we are over a million people

[bkb in the city]

@mittens I went on line to check that out. The one bedrooms sell for just under $300,000 and the two bedrooms sell for close to $500,000

[bkb in the city]

@kerristephens Thanks Kerri

[bkb in the city]

@kwind I have always been intrigued by those cranes but i would never be able to work in one

[bkb in the city]

@c17ehse Glad you like it

[bkb in the city]

@jgpittenger I m going to have to watch to see if they use one as show suite

[bkb in the city]

@batavia It is very interesting to watch the progress

[bkb in the city]

@pamfromcalgary That is so true Pam. Lots of growth in both our cities

[bkb in the city]

@westcoastwallis I will be watching it for sure

[bkb in the city]

@kph129 I think it is tied for third highest. Our tallest is 45 stories which is the Coast Edmonton Hotel

[bkb in the city]

@salza I would enjoy the river view during the day but the skyline at night

[bkb in the city]

@swguevin Cranes do make for a nice subject

[bkb in the city]

@thresheg And this is not our tallest building. That one is 45 stories

[bkb in the city]

@ellimae Yes that it is

[bkb in the city]

[bkb in the city]

@myhrhelper Glad you enjoyed it

[bkb in the city]

@nanderson Thanks Nancy

[Lisa Pouncy]

I'm always amazed by the process that goes into building these enormously tall buildings. You have to be a certain sort of person to be a crane driver that's for sure. Not for me with my fear of heights :o) xx

[Laura]

Looks great.

[bkb in the city]

@psychographer I love watching them go up and I definitely could not be a crane operator either

[bkb in the city]

@la_photographic I am sure it will look amazing when it is done

[Diane]

Very nice light in this shot!

[bkb in the city]

@eudora It was a great day
