Probably why they put trees on the amenity level.

This one looks great!

I don’t hate the material the used on the ground floor.

Kind of excited about a the prospect of a new player. I feel like we’ve seen a lot of the same thing from the same architects & developers.

I noticed a Boardwalk Lifestyle sign on the temporary fencing around the site the other day. That doesn't make me very hopeful that whatever gets developed on this site will be much of a looker, which would be too bad for such a prominent part of the neighbourhood.

This project is taking entirely too long.

Crazy to think that the City has a new fire station planned for across the street from Ol’ Beautiful.

Was part of the reason the building was setback due to shadowing on the park?

Not sure if someone has already posted this, but looks like Sarina bought the Richmond Green site. https://richmondgreenengage.ca/

I was literally thinking how the City should undertake to improve 10th ave from this area all the way to Sunalta and incorporate it into the Sunalta Main Streets Plan. If we keep adding a wall of condos to the train tracks, eventually there will be a crush of pedestrians and cyclists, for which...

That explains why I noticed that the florist that used to be in the building on the corner seems to be relocating to one of the buildings next to Marda Loop Brewery.

I think the new layout will incorporate better into the surrounding area than the previous "master plan" layout, which I think would have felt kind of closed off/gated to those who don't live in the community. The roadway and pathway network in the previous iteration was inefficient, and a...

Pretty good execution on this one.

The problem is you’re going to have a 6-story blank wall over the corner lot when we could have proper frontage on two sides of the building.

That’s the one! Hoping both parties can reach an agreement. Would be a shame to lose the opportunity to redevelop the gateway corner with something more inviting.

Not a big fan of the look of this one. My thoughts: The retail bays, particularly on the north side of the building, are going to be really dark with the overhang. The balconies look slapped on. Wish the sight triangle was at the 34 Ave corner (would have made for a good sidewalk cafe...

You’re right! It was decent when it was a Liquor Depot. It’s not good now that it’s an Ace Liquor.

The liquor store has really gone downhill since becoming a Liquor Depot. It used to have a decent selection of wine and had taps to fill growlers. I was in yesterday and couldn't tell if they were liquidating their stock or just aren't keeping much stock anymore (maybe because of the impending...

Last we saw this was West Tenth 1400.

Got an email from RKHCA today re: a Grassroots Community Planning Workshop to “consolidate the community’s visions of what might be possible on the old Viscount Bennett site” and because “Neither the City nor the developer have been willing to organize a planning workshop for all parties to work...
