What a cool looking project. Fits in well with Vancouver.

I honestly don't like its design, just hope the interior is better.

I honestly don't like its design, just hope the interior is better.

the interior has grown on me since they've unveiled it. but i don't know why it looks like a pagoda. is it pointing to the japanese heritage in vancouver? we have more of a chinese history and presence than we do japanese. but i digress. the design could have been more "wow", but meh, it is what it is. i too hope the interior is a lot better. but we really haven't heard a lot about the VAG since Jan 2016. it's been a year...what're the updates on this?

 

[City Of Rain]

Don't think the exterior design has anything to do with the Japanese heritage, its just happened to look that way I guess.

Is it going to be built?

 

[City Of Rain]

I believe it will be built, just a matter of when. I honestly not too excited about this "thing".

The cladding of the latest version looks much better than the original.
