A condo ad playfully suggesting viewers look up a woman’s skirt is causing controversy.
The ad shows a new condo development at 8th Street and 15th Avenue SW, right next to a leggy woman in a short skirt.
It says “Look up. Way up!”
Ironically, the developers are supporting the Famous Five Foundation by turning Nellie McClung’s historical property next door into a women’s centre.
The ad agency behind the display tells the Calgary Herald it wasn’t meant to offend anyone.
