I imagine something like this in Edmonton, perhaps a bit larger, in the 6000 range. https://edmontonexpocentre.com/floorplans/edmonton-expo-centre-arena/

Until very recently Edmonton had more office space downtown than Vancouver iirc, so it only looked underwhelming compared to the major outlier of Calgary.

I am not sure how’d you exactly count it, but it would be interesting to track time to completion. Like, maybe one cause of the housing crisis is people’s impression of how much housing being built is wrong due to projects taking three times as long in certain places.

AUArts for an institutional use makes the most sense, but would require a substantial public investment maybe in the $200 . Once you start reconfiguring, you have to get everything hazardous out, try to fix weird elevation changes. And probably double height each thing. $150mm to start? $300 per...

Figuring out what it should be is most of the battle. It is large enough that only very particular clients would want a full floor. and even then, they'd likely want to lease 2 floors, and make it double height, to be able to actually use most of the floor plate.

Love shooting breaks. Hopefully more of that body style proliferates with EVs.

Yeah. The cost is amazingly high. $310 million. https://www.ctvnews.ca/winnipeg/article/scope-of-downtown-hudsons-bay-redevelopment-project-shifts-as-budget-grows/

Closest comparison is the federal building in Edmonton imo. Cost hundreds of millions a decade ago to renovate.

83 for downtown commuters. 28 and 29 to go to Beaverbrook. seems different but good.

If it is a misadventure, why are there profits to be made by selling?

Nutrien HQ, the LRT, plus it has some old sloughs that probably weren't mitigated perfectly under it.

Usually FX hedging is built into the transaction, either by the city itself, whatever the USA's equivalent of export finance is, or the vendor. The export finance group also typically offers insurance as part of the finance package, which guards against government policy moves. Given the...

Can also end up with a distorted view if you poll CMA versus city boundary. You end up with the ex-urban ring with voting patterns like ‘rest of Alberta/rural’ which leaves the impression more ridings are competitive than is actually the case.

Federal funding recognition is based on reimbursement of activity under accrural rules. Provincial flows are sometimes advances, sometimes reimbursement, sometimes a combination of the two, to reconcile the cash requirements of the province with the cash requirements of the city. Total amounts...
