You just don't know when to quit do you! Rod McLennan, formerly Senior Partner at McLennan Ross, sadly passed away a little over a year ago. I designed the first iteration of their offices (under the firm name Powell Blackburn Design Ltd. -- yes I was the Powell) many years ago and Rod became a life-long friend through that relationship. Now if you want to put your big-boy pants on you can phone Peter Taschuk or David Ross (both still senior partners at the firm) to confirm the relationship that I had with Rod and the design scenario re their office (I doubt you are brave enough for that -- but there is the challenge). Here is another challenge for you -- re my architectural license and the "documents" that you believe you have so wisely uncovered. I am not going to go into great detail here -- the case brought against me by the two ex-clients was dismissed in Civil court but (reminding me somewhat of you) that wasn't good enough for them so they went after my license. The defense was going to cost me over $25,000.00 in Lawyers' fees and the fees that I had charged the ex-clients was just under $12,000.00 (even you should be able to do the math on that) -- so from purely a financial outcome I settled the case by repaying their fees. This is the challenge part -- the last person who posted those documents on this site had to remove them and was permanently banned from the Skyrise City site (membership revoked). So to quote Dirty Harry "go ahead, make my day" -- if you want to risk being permanently banned from the site -- post them again (that is not permission -- that is a dare!). You are such a small child!

Well, this is definitely not what is in those documents.

If anyone is curious, you can just look up his name on the California Architects Board website, do a license lookup, and have a peek at these documents.

The entrance is...well, an entrance.

Looks pretty much like the entrance to one of the ground floor units - so leaves a little something to be desired.

But pretty standard I guess for 3-6 storey buildings.

Mercury, at 7 storeys, is much more impactful. I wouldn't mind seeing the bar raised a bit from this G4 example.
