    I remember when I was more active in various City engagement projects, Administration and Council were absolutely terrified of any introducing any policy initiatives that could "shock the housing market," even when prices kept rising and housing kept getting less and less attainable and less and...

    The Parks | 146.91m | 45s | 35s | 13s | Pangman | Hariri Pontarini

    I still need to get a photo of it, but under the podium roof on the south end of this phase are some pretty hefty-looking load transfer structures. I'm guessing once the podium of the south building is built, the midrise will be built literally sitting on top of both.

    Edmonton | Altairus | 23m | 6s

    Unless the appellants can demonstrate that the development officer made an error in approving the permit, I can't see the appeal going anywhere. For better or for worse, the DC2 bylaw is approved and in effect. SDAB has no power to overturn that.

    Edmonton | West Block | 60.35m | 16s | Beaverbrook | GEC

    East Junction | 86m | 25s | Regency Developments | DER + Associates

    The whispers in the wind hum in Holyrood is that Regency is having some financial difficulties.

    Edmonton | The Artisan | 31.09m | 8s | Kota Contracting | DER + Associates

    I'm not one to casually defend DER, but this was one of their better designs. Also, the architect has very little to do with the owner/developer's ability to actually finance and build.

    Edmonton | Valley Line LRT/ Valley Line West | ?m | ?s | City of Edmonton

    ^ There was a 0% chance they were ever going to actually use gold glass.
