That one rather impressed me too. It's just a nice mix of housing options, including a decent amount of "missing middle". I don't blame them for starting small to test the waters, but they have enjoyed consistent success here despite their low-key marketing presence and have rapidly sold...

This would be the north corner of the Blatchford Rd/Alpha Boulevard roundabout, which was not one that I heard anything about previously. Though if that update from the Blatchford newsletter is any indication, they seem to have interest in all of the remaining BLMR parcels. This is also the...

This is the first time that six have been in the planning stage. This is by far the highest that number has been. It is at the very least an indicator of more interest. But, given what the design, planning, and financing processes are like for 4-6 story apartments in general, I would be...

New Blatchford newsletter just dropped, with a particularly eye-catching detail.

And in fairness, many of those people will never be happy with anything less than going back to the PWA Chieftain Air Bus service, complete with smoking on the plane and sexist hiring standards for the cabin crews. This is especially true of the subset which writes for Postmedia.

The ones next to the LRT are the clearest ones in the neighbourhood, and when I was last there yesterday, they were mostly clear. But, with this freeze-thaw that we've been having, that could easily have changed. The ones within the developed area have been alternating between crunchy and...

Pilot has actual bonafide inhabitants, but it's at the north end, while some of the south buildings still seem to be fitting out. Landmark's homes on Navigator and Pilot lanes appear to all be substantially complete, and some have signs of current or pending occupation. The Encore ones by the...

Oh yes. When he actually builds something, it does tend to have architecture. So do all of the ones which never advance beyond the vibe stage.

I suspect that they're very lean operations. When we found a crate of tools from Yellowhead Brewery in a stairwell of my other half's condo building, he showed up personally to actually retrieve the tools after we contacted one of his offices, which was a bit odd.

Like so many Dub proposals, this appears to be vapourware. The locations shown in the concept art are either NAIT land or City owned. The lake is from the original design competition and this plan would seem to require that Bravo Boulevard not exist and something weird be done with the LRT line.

I am finding this bit of decor to be rather delightful.

A bin of indifferently sorted $5 Atari 2600 cartridges.

It does indeed remain a work in progress. When I biked through over the summer trying to visit friends in Beaumaris, I did indeed find myself in a bunch of the old base.

NAIT was not given this land. They purchased it. And it's not like they're going to purchase it somewhere else, because their campus is right there.

Yes. Mutti might have glued mantlepieces to walls and cut every corner they could and you should absolutely never buy one of their houses anywhere in the city unless you are extremely prepared to spend a bunch of money fixing it, but they made sharp looking houses here even if they've been...
