Ian, that was the old location of Westrich's defunct proposal for that land....you guys were going to demolish half the parkade to squeeze a tower ($90M est - forget the name) on it between the parkade and Falcon #1. Is it back on the table?

Defunct.

If I wasn't married with kids I'd be living in the McLeod Building.

$150k in downtown Edmonton in a historic building.

Pretty high condo fee for that size of unit - priced accordingly based on that I think.

A smaller, older building typically will, but it does include utilities.

I still have aspirations of moving there at some point.

I find it a bit odd and surprising that Winnipeg has this momentum dt without a proper mass transportation system.

Here's hoping we get similar news articles in the future since we're close to approaching 3000 units with development permits or are under construction too.

This is from Cushman & Wakefield but we got good leasing activity in Q4 2025 for downtown.

For Lease signs are up in the Rise Republic space on 104 St
