Let's hope more recladding projects are in the works for Hull.
What would you like to see reclad? I like the mix after these two are done. I think Place du Portage IV and Place du Portage 1 are excellent and I hope they don't need building envelope replacement any time soon. Maison du Citoyen will definitely have a reclad as part of it's potential update, but I hope it remains red brick. I'd like to see a reclad of the Courthouse, and I'd like to see Palais des Congres mowed down and the land used for residential after they finish the Lac-Leamy conventon centre.

Les Terraces looked better before 
I agree, but I can't imagine them recladding that much surface with real brick to replace those shitty precast panels. The original reclad proposal was absolutely incredible, though.Les Terraces looked better before
Wish they would have reclad in similar brick to what was there at least on the shorter sections. What they've done looks nice, but it's a lot of glass, not just on the complex, but in the skyline with the Portage reclad.

I'm actually a little disappointed now that Claridge is planning a 45 story tower just to the left of these. I don't want them to be diminished, they are going to be so unique!!!
I get what you're saying. I'm disappointed the Renaissance is taller than Relevé's south tower. Wish the heights were reversed (or while I'm wishing for things, I wish Relevé was taller than it is) to see them both.
I hope Claridge comes up with a fantastic design and executes it well, and I hope other towers at LeBreton have some colour.

Any deal of they plan on starting construction soon?
Not a chance. They haven't even started the second Ascent tower, which is currently a large hole.
