I thought someone mentioned not long ago that Western Securities was involved with that lot now, or maybe I imagined that. I know they're involved with the one kitty corner to underwood, but I thought someone mentioned this land too.

Which is nuts cause from what I could see, there's not much for a pathway detour. I saw people jumping onto elbow drive to run and rollerblade around the barricades.

Same here! That railing was definitely rough looking so I'm excited to see it updated.

Captured a quick shot of all the mission bridge (and area) construction yesterday. I could find the plan for it on the city site but couldn't see any renders of what they're doing. Are they going to be similar improvements to the east side that they made a few years ago?

That's for 1901 College

This is one of the developments I'm most looking forward to and I'm realllllly hoping that the retail component is knocked out of the park.

I know it probably won't happen at this point but I miss the idea of Corcorde Entertainment opening a spot in that space by the bow cycle space.

They demoed the building that was on this site last week. I keep meaning to snap a photo of the site, will try and get one the next time I go by it.

Oh mannnn, I would LOVE for that strip of 17th avenue to be developed so fingers crossed something is happening!

When I walked by this weekend, lots of cleanup was happening, the sidewalks are almost completed, and lots of finishing touches are happening so it seems really close now.

I think my biggest issue with this one is how dark that glass is on the retail units.

From what I heard, the same group of restaurants is opening another restaurant in the space on this side. Supposedly it's supposed to be a high-end type restaurant with a grand piano and that kind of vibe. Also heard that there's an Italian restaurant set to open any time now in the bottom of...

They should do a 2.0 version of the clock tower art installation instead :P

Not sure if this has been discussed yet but I saw a sign for this proposal in mission. (20th Avenue and 5th street SW). https://www.davisblock.ca/

I noticed this the last time I drove past, that sign is large and in charge. 😂

I wish there were laws or some way to deter this from happening. The fact that they're allowed to directly control the vibrancy of areas just because of greed is crazy.

That building is going up so fast. It would be so great to fill in all that space in that area still. Is that hon tower project that was proposed for that area dead then?

I'll be around there tomorrow so I'll try and find out (and take a photo too :) )
