The Stantec Tower under construction in the city's Ice District is being hailed as an exciting, important step forward for Edmonton -- beating out Calgary's towers to become the tallest building in the country outside Toronto.

When Edmonton's downtown Rogers Place arena opens in 2016, it will be part of what will be known as the "Ice District." What do you think of the name?

Stantec and WAM Development unveiled the design of a new 62-storey mixed-use tower, which will be the tallest building in Edmonton's history.
