#1 Fair enough #2 Seriously? Do you know what kind of lease rates you need to charge to be able to support the cost of new construction, regardless of the location and land price? #3 So in order for a developer to do a new project, they should be expected to purchase another adjacent site...

Not sure where this reporter got his info, but the owner is my cousin and after texting him his response was "May? Maybe May 2023". Plan is still to go in the Stantec food court, but as the previous poster showed, they still haven't handed over the space.

Nice warmup for (hopefully) a playoff run.

Fantastic news. Jasper so badly needs a new hotel option. There is a time/place for the charm of Tonquin Inn...but it ain't every time.

My cousin signed a lease over 2 years ago to bring three different food offerings to the Stantec food court. Needless to say, they were not told they would be waiting this long for spaces to be turned over to them, and it has been a huge bummer.

Sounds about right. Which is why it doesn't seem like there is much of a market for it these days in Edmonton when you can get a quality single-family house in Westmount for the same or cheaper. It works in Toronto where a townhouse is $1M, a duplex is $1.5M, and a single is $2.5M.

4th (and final) site is now sold to a group out of Toronto looking to do a high-rise tower. Only parcel of the development that wasn't picked up by ROHIT.

So does this mean in addition to moving their staff over from their location on Jasper/103rd, they are also leaving their space in J22 on Jasper/122nd?

I do not know much about Councilor Janz, but he seems a bit out of place with this council. Does not seem to do much work behind the scenes building consensus with his colleagues before bringing a motion forward, accusing administration of being biased, scolding his other councilors during...

^ Add in Versailles Cafe in the old Starbucks on High Street and The Grizzlar coming later this year. Certainly no lack of options if you are picky about your coffee.

For what it is worth, Rutherford seems firmly against reversing the ELD decision based on her comments at the last council.

^ Tenants still haven't been turned over the space for the food court...but judging by those photos, not sure what the hold up is? Wonder if the groups that signed leases 3 years ago are still as excited on the project?

Early days, but what I am seeing out of Councilors Stevenson, Salvador, and Janz has been surprising. All seemed to have ran on an agenda of prioritizing core redevelopment projects. The proceeds from the sale of ELD lands was all but earmarked for deployment to kickstart Rossdale, and yet...

At a time when it feels like many developers are pausing their downtown projects in favor of deploying their investment capital to projects around Oliver & Whyte Ave, I feel that the Stationlands projects has become an extremely important project to keep some momentum and investment going in...

^ A butcher and another restaurant is coming to West Block, just no announcement yet. Have to think a candlestick maker is close as well. Every new commercial hub seems to have cannabis, nails, liquor, and candlesticks.

Strong arm? Absolutely. But I think that is it. I don't think moving is an option they would consider at this point. Look how hard they are fighting to keep the Coyotes in AZ despite the fact that Glendale is literally trying to kick the hockey club out of their building. With the revenues...

I'm pretty sure every politician running for municipal office makes that promise and then immediately passes the buck to admin if they get in

Nothing says "can't miss investment" quite like 14,500sqft of office space.

I have no "insider info", but if you are looking for a preview of what the floorplans may look like, I would bet they are a riff off their Park View Home collection: https://cantiro.ca/park-view-homes/
