Rejected headlines for the Tall Wood Building feature

Writing headlines is hard. Really hard. Like as hard as the Tall Wood Building.

Our feature this week revolved around the recent completion of Brock Commons — a.k.a. the Tall Wood Building. Clearly we are all serious, hard-hitting journalists.

With so much genius and only one title to channel it into, we thought that these rejected headlines were too good to be forgotten:

  • We’re all over UBC’s giant erection
  • Tall wood is coming
  • Tall, dark, and wooden: what Brock Common’s Tinder profile would look like
  • UBC’s biggest erection yet: it’s coming
  • Step inside UBC’s giant wood
  • Wood they have done it if it wasn’t wood?
  • An analysis of UBC’s newest erection: the tall wood building
  • [wood joke here]
  • How many men does it take to give UBC an erection?
  • Almost fully erected, wooden, but only second-tallest
  • UBC is very proud of its Tall Wood
  • It took 70 days to erect UBC’s Tall Wood

WINNER: It only took nine men to erect UBC’s Tall Wood
