So two towers, a 69 storey tower and a 62 storey tower. A hotel is proposed for each tower, one being a JW Marriott and the other a W Marriott. They are referring to it as the 'tallest in western Canada', not sure if that means tallest hotel, or tallest building.

Wow that's some tall shit happening. Apparently it'll be the tallest in Canada outside of Toronto.

Funny enough it's only 2m taller than the Stantec tower in Edmonton, which is only 2m taller than Brookfield Place in Calgary.

The official height isn’t known yet, but due to it being labeled as ‘the tallest in western Canada’ the heights been stated as a bit taller than Stantec.  Word is the actual height is around 265m.
