An interesting land use application over by SAIT:

It is just land use right now, no DP. Quantum Place (the planning consultant) has an engagement page up for the project, including a potential building massing:

Added to the database. Details to be edited as needed.

Perfect for that location.
 
Doing some calculations with @CT_ 's help to model what these might look like.
Three possible scenarios, assuming that they are looking to max out the 12 FAR, and given the areas from the image:
- Two towers about the same height that are between 90 and 100 metres
- A taller tower around 120 metres tall, similar to BLVD, and a shorter tower about 65 metres tall
- A much taller tower around 140 metres tall, and a much shorter tower around 45 metres tall.

Scenario 1 and 2 feel the most likely to me. 45 metres would be pretty short for that location, especially if it's on the south side.
I think we need a 4th scenario :)

- A 200 meter tower around 60 storeys, with a cheat spire and no second tower.
 
To be clear, I don't think Quantum Place is the developer, they are the planning consultant. And actually, they are winding down operation in the new year (founder got a new job with an international developer). I imagine they will continue to take this land use redesigntation through to Council, but it will be their client who is responsible for ultimatley building.
 
Aerial pic of downtown from 2010. I would kill to see this same shot today. I would guess there would be around 30 or so new highrises in this angle?

A few skyline shots from July 2002. I'm going to force myself to go take some shots of the same angles this coming July.

Anyone have any info on the shopping centre opening soon (2026) in Belmont. This is the one on 194th, not the big one they're going to be building on 210th in 2027+

Got the same angle on Google Earth, which is recent enough to show 4SL almost complete, but not the Truman trio u/c. Also expanded it out up and down, to see some of the action in East Village and the 11 St area.

Definitely would be awesome to see an actual photo though. I wonder how it was taken? Must have been from a helicopter
