This thing is really starting to give off some serious 'Wow Factor'. I think the exterior will be fundamentally complete by late summer.

I noticed driving by today the wood ceiling at the entry is going in.

I wonder whether the slightly jarring effect of the metal panels amongst the masonry might be lessened when the building is finished. Perhaps the presence of the scaffolding, plastic wrap et al. contributes to their looking out of place in certain lighting conditions. And don't forget: it's located in Canada, the land that maintenance forgot. Eventually the building will be coated in dust and grime, and the panels will stand out less.

It's honestly looking beautiful, can't wait to go explore it!

First bit of wood going in at street level (the ceiling section isn’t the final material, just wood mounting slats in prep for the final wood)
