Oh I’m sorry! I hadn’t seen that rendering before! Thank you!

Which development is this and where?

Happy Holidays to One and All! May your time be filled with joy and love! All the best to you and your loved ones! See you in the New Year!🎅

My goodness, are my eyes deceiving me or did they strip away the Art Deco features of the building?!?! If I didn’t know the previous history and architecture of the building, I would say it looks really good! But I will say it is disappointing to see it in this way.

One of the office conversions in the CBD is going to become a hotel at 833 4th avenue SW. It’s going to cost $10 less per square foot to do this conversion versus the previous plan for a residential tower. Calgary announces new downtown office conversion; separate project shifts from...

With Westjet having cut/reduced Toronto and east flying it’s been very difficult or near impossible for crew members living in Montreal/Ottawa/etc to commute to Toronto and have to move to/commute to another base, or in some cases, quit. At least Westjet pilots can commute on AC, but the cabin...

Thanks Mountain Man. I didn’t know the new building is being constructed on the same site. And thanks haltcatchfire for your snarky reply.

Why are they doing demolition before a new building was constructed? Have they moved all the functions of the existing building to other spaces on a temporary (or permanent?) basis?

Per person?!?! Good grief! 😵‍💫

And it is so! Has anybody driven the section from 16th avenue to Bow Trail yet?

From the Development Map linked above, it describes H-GO as this: H-GO is a residential designation in the developed area that supports of infill housing forms where units may be attached or stacked at a 3 storey scale. Hope that helps!

There doesn’t appear to be a patio area outside the building. I wonder if they would be allowed a sidewalk patio like their fellow restauranteurs on 17th avenue.

I appreciate you thinking out of the box to find a way to keep traffic moving at this intersection, but I’m not sure those side streets adjacent to the intersection are built for the increased traffic proposed and I’m not sure people who live along those side streets would be too pleased with...

That link appears to be broken? “404 error”?

Oh good grief! The soil couldn’t handle the weight?!?! That’s so far reaching! What lengths the NIMBY crowd will go to!!!

Oh good grief! Here we go again! 😵‍💫😳🤨 Whipping Calgarians up into a frenzy. From what I understand, significant changes to the plan would require a resubmission to the government for funds reconsideration and might risk losing what we’ve already been promised! Tinkering with the plan at this...

And I thought Toronto was bad for how long it took to get transit projects built and operating! This is frustrating for sure!

That is just awful! I don’t have anything positive to say about it at all!

Interestingly, in that same CH article, Liricon is proposing a separate study be jointly financed by them and the province and to be completed with a three month timeline! Why would theirs take only three months to complete versus the province/city study of 1+ year?

Bravo! Well said! And I agree 100%!
