One note: I believe it is Encore that is already building on some of the blue areas where the infrastructure is not yet finished. For townhome plots, the builders are now pushing the city to move faster instead of the city begging for builders to come in.

My take on these listings? Streetside convinced the city to change the zoning rules to allow 14-foot-wide townhomes and probably had a hold on these lots but their sales have flopped so they are pulling back from Blatchford. Hopefully another builder can step in here!

I don’t know how shoring works, but don’t those steel beams go pretty far down? I assumed they would go deeper once the shoring is in

A friend of mine was one of the investors in the cooperative and my understanding is that this story is accurate - Spinelli was more than fair with what she paid.

SKIS LANDING? Is that supposed to be Skies Landing? I'm confused.

That does seem to be something the development office is focusing on now. Not sure whether they heard the criticism or this was when they would turn their attention that way in any event... There is a rezoning application for a large chunk right beside the LRT station. Also, the NAIT lands are...

As my wife likes to tell me: "They probably know what they are doing better than you do"

Bold move to lay down sod on Nov 5...

Yes, the city is moving in that direction so hopefully that changes things. But there is no serviced land in Blatchford that is currently close to the Blatchford Gate station, so it will be a few years before any development is in that area. I do not believe there is serviced land ready for...
