I Took This Photo Of The Aldred Centre Shown Here Last Week.
It's right here in the city I live in and I've watched it for some time now, being built.
It's quite a thing and I'm sure it was designed after a few that have popped up in the USA in this past decade.
Up here it is part of the University College Cluster of Buildings.
If I Find More Info On It I Will Post It In The Thread.

Okay - Here is part of what I found.

John and Cheryl Aldred Donated $15,000,000.00 (15 Million) Dollars as a Gift to "SAIT" (Southern Alberta's Institute of Technology) which has been the largest in history ever given to a community college or polytechnic institution institution in Canada. "Give Canada" assisted in the facilitation of such funds to this project! #1574864

Eye-catching futuristic image, Pom! Love the colors and that flowing, graceful line across the top.

Hi Mare and Brother John! Thank you both lots! Let me see if I have another photo or two of it to share. :D

We are having a lazy Sunday here watching movies. I was outside today, until it rained, sweeping pine needles and cones all over the backyard from a long stormy winter! #11057862

That background is phenomenal, SSSister.

It take a keen eye to see the image and then great skills to turn it into reality.
