My understanding is that it was owned by two parties, one being the Bateman family. It went through judicial sale as the Bateman family was over the head. The project is now 100% owned by the other party who is a reputable local developer who everyone knows. What their plans are with it I do...

Virtually no multi-family projects qualify under conventional financing anymore. All developers I have seen are going CMHC and if you arent, I have no idea why you wouldnt.

The average $ per sq. ft. across the entire build is projecting to be around $3.0 per sq. ft. and the handful of smaller units will have a higher rate on a sq. ft. basis but on a monthly basis they are deemed affordable by the CMHC financing in place and inline with the downtown market....so...

What is interesting about this? Their website shows The Corners project, which was abandoned by them taken over by Cidex as "coming soon" and right on the home page "The real estate industry in Edmonton had a great month in July 2013". If you are going off of anything on their website, nothing...

All that sounds great except the only movement from Regency I'd predict in 2024 might be a bowel movement.

Correction, I was thinking of Stevenson who has had a long enough career as a city of Edmonton employee.

Thank god it isn't up to you The possibilities would be would be endless with another 4 years of Sohi or think just how much we could achieve on cleanliness and crime with another career bureaucrat in Salvador...

I have been openly critical on this forum of EG over the past several years for their (lack of) performance and key wins attracting investment to the region and to downtown. By my count since their 2017 inception, EG can be directly tied to 3 public wins - 1. Polykar (2019), 2. Air Products...

Precisely the point of my tongue in cheek comment. Edmonton does well industrially and so does Calgary. But Calgary does well at a lot more areas of investment and development, while Edmonton does not. Hanging our hat on being the industrial investment area of the province is certainly not...

I acknowledge that kicking people out of transit and transit centers isnt the solution to end homelessness. However, transit and transit stations are not homeless shelters, so kicking people out and policing transit centers is a solution to the general public feeling unsafe using transit and...

https://calgaryherald.com/business/local-business/construction-of-1-2b-biofuels-plant-on-edge-of-southeast-calgary-slated-for-next-spring But I thought the reason we don't want white collar, head office and "IT call center" jobs and Calgary can have all of those is because Edmonton gets all the...

It is closed last I saw (September)

While I understand the comparison between Blatchford and Griesbach, as the CBC article notes Blatchford is not market driven but very much policy driven as a wet dream of a municipal government that was 1. fixated on creating some eco paradise that was and has been unrealistic and 2. a continued...

I am confused by what people want on this forum. We want a vibrant downtown that isnt a ghost town, we want companies to be attracted to the region and invest here, but any suggestion at how that is reasonably achievable is confronted with how it isn't possible or reasonable because Calgary. I...

Porter decided that they will be investing in Ottawa substantially as their eastern operations and maintenance base, not Toronto or Montreal...

Dow has had a massive presence in Fort Saskatchewan for many years, it is continuing to invest in the billions on this and more projects. Now is the time for whoever is asleep at the wheel in the mayor's office, Edmonton Global, or whatever organization to start pitching and wooing Dow on moving...

Council as a whole and the mayor for sure have been one of the poorest quality councils we have had in recent memory, and we have had our share of poor quality councils.

Building looks phenomenal...so now what? Any leasing activity? Any takers for large chunks of space in there?

I dont know that inspiration is what is lacking for Rossdale and the powerplant. It is motivation and competency that is required to get something going here.

In light of yesterday, I think its unfair to put that on her given she allegedly has no idea what is going on whatsoever. Correction - Jennifer Rice's staff voted no lol
