Interesting (in a good way) to see Coast Capital involved in financing an Edmonton development. While they are a Federal Credit Union, branches are BC only. Assuming CIBC is the lead

I see both arguments Out of Towner, regarding keep the powerplant itself versus something new. My biggest concern is something in the middle, aka do nothing for another decade. In my dream scenario, no funding constraints & all parties on-board, would be a mid-rise development of all the...

To "touch" on to the Touch the Water aspect of the Riverside Promenade, once again chiming in from the City to the south with an Edmontonian perspective. I'll remove landscape hurdles (River Vallley is significantly steeper in most spots than Bow). Counter is floodplain issues for Calgary...

National Bank Prescence in Calgary is focused on investment banking, & conservative commercial banking + wealth. Big 5 (6) banks shouldn't hurt anyone for jobs except the c-suite/ego drop of another Edm pubco HQ (STN, CPX, NOA, who else now?) In my opinion, just like Canadian Western & ATB...

anecdotally only, but between coworkers and strangers in the 15+, there is A LOT of interest in Calgary for in visiting/researching Edmonton for the SCF. Beyond those paying the $$$$$ for actual tickets, talk of being in the "ice district", "part of the experience" is true. Expect some fresh...

As a not even that that long ago U of A grad (2015 😭, whatever helps me sleep at night) I remember friends and classmates staying in a room in one of those paneled beige houses for $400/month in early 2010s. I am also an OG garage suite dweller of Belgravia, a unique but cramped roommate...

Beyond the other proposed developments around the warehouse park, I'd love for a completed Phase 2 to eventually spur some momentum like what happened in Oliver to get two major Jasper ave parking holes filled: -Lot #32 10605 Jasper Ave adjacent to First Candian Place -10745 Jasper Ave between...

Considering that size increase, would this be upstairs into the office portion? Allied had the various spaces easily available on their website before, but to my knowledge the Boardwalk side was mostly available edit found the level 2 spaces in question on CBRE ...

Glad to see the continued momentum of this project and the 124th area in general. So many similar, tired walk-ups north of Jasper that need the same fate. I moved to Calgary over a year ago and this area & living along the Vic promenade are probably what I miss most about Edmonton. That and Donairs

I have been too lazy to pull out a telephoto at my new place. I've been shy on this forum, but lets just say I have the oldest vehicle in the parkade. Wonderful underground parkade, after falling victim to a stolen Cat. converter at my prior apartment in Oliver. Anyways, didn't lug the tripod so...

last night Sept 2:

Reminds me of a mini Staples Center / Microsoft Theater plaza with the media stands. I wouldn't mind a few more sport hero statues ;)

Same here. Very happy to see the daylighting come through. So much concrete debris along that stretch

If I was transferring to Edmonton for a downtown professional role, car-less, and already used to the $$$ / amenities of a big city it would check the boxes.

I am currently in the market for a central 2 bedroom rental. My Girlfriend inquired on both The Augustana and CX Grandin. Both look great inside, but it's tough to justify paying $2,000+ before parking for something smaller than my 70s era 1 bedroom. Especially when there is good bang for buck...

^I am so excited for this project. One of the great hypothetical ideas discussed on this forum becoming reality. Another is the Scona Garage project! Now I just wish someone would take on the Canada Permanent Building

I always think of this when I drive by:

^great shots Avenuer! Photos 1 and 2 give me a feel for the low floor, neighborhood design of this section. My latest car commute took me far out to the South East industrial in March, and driving up Connors and 83 Street was still a mess compared to this

I couldn't agree more. The big gaps in Oliver and the 108 to 106 warehouse park areas create immediate dead zones of crumbled concrete (I know this sentiment is obvious to the contributors of this forum). I live in the south side of this Oliver dead zone, and it is vibrant with cyclists, dog...
