    Edmonton | Army & Navy Redevelopment | ?m | 6s | Edgar

    https://dailyhive.com/edmonton/sneak-peek-future-army-navy-building-edmonton Looks like they will be splitting up the main floor into 4 CRUs with large units at the back (entrance on Calgary trail) and in the basement. Possible closure of the alley on the west side of the building for a patio...

    What are the "Tessco issues"? Something that affects all of the various "gates" style buildings? I also find them quite interesting and might consider living in one at some point. Something to avoid if one was looking for a unit to buy?

    Edmonton | Winspear Centre Completion Project | 29.87m | 4s | Winspear Centre | Andrew Bromberg

    Sadly you're probably right. They might even be above using the unclean public parkade :rolleyes:

    Edmonton | Winspear Centre Completion Project | 29.87m | 4s | Winspear Centre | Andrew Bromberg

    Why did they add a $9m parkade? Library parkade is right across the street and has plenty of space, and it's directly next to all three LRT lines. That seems absurd, especially after the city removed parking minimums and has goals of reduced car trips.

    Downtown

    At the very least we should add vehicle sensors to all advance turn arrows, to avoid pedestrians having to wait for no reason if there's no cars turning. It would also help prevent situations where the arrow starts flashing and a car races up from a block away to catch it, I'm sure a lot of...

    ETS Bus and General Transit Improvements

    the youth fare age eligibility will adjust to 18 years and under. This means riders aged 19-24 years, who were previously eligible for the youth fare category, will now be in the standard adult fare category I think that's a bad move, we should be keeping transit fares as low as possible for...

    Downtown Crime

    Follow up to this - I passed through Corona station this morning, probably 8-10 people laying around on the floor at the 108st entrance, garbage strewn around and one area that looked like it was on fire recently. Texted transitwatch, since they were not actively doing drugs or committing a...

    Downtown Crime

    Do you report these incidents to TransitWatch? I shoot them a text every time I see anything like this; people blocking walkways, acting aggressive, sleeping in elevators, any kind of drug use, etc. They always answer right away and say they will send a peace officer. I like being able to text...

    Meadowlark Apartments | RMS Group

    Interesting, that project has been unfunded for 8 years, and that lot vacant for probably 20.. Was this stimulated by valley line west? 5 minute walk to Meadowlark stop, not bad even for seniors.

    Good to see something finally happening there. I thought it was planned for demolition a while back?

    Yup, I think that's exactly what happened with these two shops on 102ave/109st

    Stollery Children's Hospital

    I thought I read somewhere that Blood Services was moving out of the university area, people were grumbling that it would be less accessible and would reduce donations. Don't think it was anything concrete though.

    Edmonton | The Shift | 113.08m | 38s | Edgar | MCM Partnership

    The article did say this will "cater to the higher end of the rental market", so I think that would mean good architecture and minimal value engineering.

    Edmonton | The Shift | 113.08m | 38s | Edgar | MCM Partnership

    Great news! Since the original plan was two towers at 35 and 37 stories, sounds like they are going to just do a single 30-storey instead? (And possibly tower 2 in the future if demand increases?)

    Edmonton | Ortona Armoury Arts Building Rehabilitation | ?m | 2s | City of Edmonton

    Would love to see inside, anyone know of any upcoming public events?

    The Parks | 146.91m | 45s | 35s | 13s | Pangman | Hariri Pontarini

    Also, the connector is where the big outdoor common space will be for both towers, I would think they'd want to get that built asap.

    The Parks | 146.91m | 45s | 35s | 13s | Pangman | Hariri Pontarini

    I assume the connector and tower will be built together. When I asked I said "tower 2?" and she said "in about 2 years".
