history
Calgary's age of high-rise buildings began with the completion of the Grain Exchange Building in 1910 and the Fairmont Palliser Hotel (1914). The first skyscraper in the city is the 20-story Elveden Center from 1960. On the one hand, construction activity declined in the early 1970s, and on the other hand, there was a sharp increase in the construction of high-rise buildings and skyscrapers between 1970 and 1990. These include the First Canadian Center and the Canterra Tower . The standstill in the first half of the 1990s was followed by a construction boom at the end of the decade, which continues to this day.
