NorQuest is nearly complete with the construction of the first three (of four) floors in the Intact Building (called Jasper Avenue Tower on campus). Staff offices and classrooms will be operational in January 2025. This Downtown Campus extension to Jasper Ave is considered a bridging strategy...

Subject to change. This is conceptual design only.

Likely 2027. The initial ask to GoA was for a planning grant first (targeting budget 2025) and then the capital grant for budget 2026. That would start construction in 2027 with a targeted completion for academic year 2029-30. It all comes down to how well the government supports the project...

We'll need a new thread for this one.

"NorQuest plans to expand its downtown campus with a major capital project for a Career Skills Centre, addressing growing enrollment demand and contributing to a vibrant Education District in downtown Edmonton." Source

The property in question involves four lots. From north to south, there’s a parking lot just south of the former Champs Boxing Studio, two lots on which the building being demolished sits and the lot directly to the south of the building. It’s a four lot package, the city arbitrarily attached...

Not for a parking lot. This is the start of the development of the 108th Street block and there will be no new surface parking lots on it. The city wouldn't permit it, and NQ needs to make the most of the land bank that they have. That being said, regarding the CB building, the college needs...

What do you mean by "...tied to an announcement by Maclab...?"

The Teaching and Research Continuing Care Centre Project you are referencing has been suspended. NQ is rumoured to be working on something else for the site.

How do you define significant? I'm not hearing that NQ is seeing anything more or less than what other organizations are seeing around that area. What have you seen/heard? Genuinely curious.

This thread is kind of all over the place - NorQuest / Parks Project / Funeral Home site / etc... I will say this about the former Funeral Home site regarding MacLab's interest in providing student housing: - As I said in another thread - NorQuest has zero student housing and will fill this...

NorQuest has no residence. This is going to be a welcome, and active offering for the Downtown Campus for that organization. I've said it before, (not here, but... trust me - I have) that the answer to downtown revitalization isn't $750k+ condos in the sky. It's creating a complete community...

If we insist on pavement as a requirement, we must first insist that the property owners install a storm sewer system and connect it to the city's storm sewer utility. I think that there is a risk that would drive non-compliance as for some lots that's insisting on having them spend easily 6 or...

The Valley Line will be a game changer for both NQC and MacEwan too by opening up much more reasonably accessible transit to these two downtown campuses from far west to far south east city boundaries with the "NorQuest Station" nestled between these two institutions and right at the front door...

NQC has given notice to the owners of the former A+B Sound Building on 106 Street and will be vacating at the end of 2024. At the same time, a lack of a new building to expand into has resulted in NQC's divestment from Centre 106 (the former A+B Sound building) to expand into the Intact...
