I actually don't mind this one tbh
But the southside one that has the brick facade is atrocious

Well on one side, the building will bring a bunch more people living in the area so that's a positive at least. As for the look of the building, that is definitely one of the most uninspired buildings that could have been put there.

You could simply apply the same alternating treatment above the original brick side, and it would look much better overall.
I think it was always going to be smaller windows, though, to reach the 696 units.

What the FCUK!!!! Remand Centre 2.0 is too nice a descriptor. Good god, Edmonton. I give up.
That's a national embarrassment.

What else would we expect from a “Student Housing” builder……..when you make a deal with the devil……

This developer is from B.C., take that for what you will.
I bet the EDC requests for quite a few changes when this goes to them, thankfully.

What pissed me off on this is that most of their products are in Kelowna and are usually relatively nice.

It is at times like this when the EDC needs more teeth. Yes, the B.C. Developer should stay at home; who was it that said they had a good track record in Kelowna.

100% it’s modular

woof... how hard would it have been to take design cues from the original building, for example, the windows

Ya it does look modular. Those windows are way too small. It looks exactly like what it's for, housing students. Really a shame, cause it could be more than this. Where is the amenity space?

It looks like industrial work camp housing. EDC better send this back.
