When was the last time he checked? I read here that he actually did.

I thought that was a joke.

Plot twist, Alldritt buys the land and their tower dream lives on.

News has been confirmed by @archited who spoke to Alldritt's housemaid.



I kid, don't hate me Archi

 

[archited]

I could never hate you @crisp. Truth be known it was Stan Alldritt's housemaid that dished the tower news. She said that she overheard Stan Sr. mumbling about it in one of his ghostly, nightly wanderings. If it comes from "the other side" one has to believe it -- spectral knowledge, the foundation of all human intelligence.

It is...

I'm no insider for this kind of stuff.

So was my comment

Lol a lot of Alldritt's rumours must come from the old man's nightly wanderings.

On a more serious note, I'm hoping it's Pangman, Edgar, Beljan, Westrich or their ilk.

 

[archited]

^ I would remove Westrich from that list lest we end up with a 6-storey Wundergebäude as a solution

 

[JNO1]

Would be interesting if it was Pangman/Day. Side by side gems: The existing Enbridge Place next to "TEGLER Tower". One can dream!!

^Pangman/Day or Maclab would be my preference

I’d be totally happy if this became a nice small park with a fountain and benches all round it

I would prefer a nice building with a recreation of elements of the Tegler to be built here asap, but if that doesn't happen something like the privately owned Melcor park space east of 102 Street and south of Jasper Ave would not be bad.

Any developer would win instant goodwill by putting a temporary park here until they decide what to do long term.

Would your proposed park also include the enclosed fence?

 

[David A]

It is not my decision, but I would prefer not enclosed like it. For many years the Melcor space actually was open, but things happened so they felt the need to control the space more.

Of course, in their case they also have a building right next to the space so this gives the tenants access to the space, which probably would not be the case on the 101 Street space.
