It's a shame that they're looking into demolishing stuff (and a risk that we might not see it built), considering how many vacant lots we have around there, but if it does get built, it'll be impactful beyond measure for the area

Also, it's actually really frustrating to see how Brewery District-Oliver Square wastes so much prime land on parking lots. I'd sell my soul to the devil to see all of that redeveloped into mixed use buildings, especially with the LRT having 3 stations in that section.

What's currently located on the site. As long as the glass buildings north of 10539 are unmolested, these can go away and won't be missed.

As long as it's not the same story with Jasper 123. We lost some retail there for nothing. Wasn't anything major, but it was better than an empty lot.

Let's goooooo. BUILD IT.

If enough of us cheerlead online and in real life, delusion becomes reality. I am 100% all for this.

I'll believe this when I see shovels in the ground, but getting rid of that stupid suburban-looking tattoo shop building would be a huge win for the street.

 

[thommyjo]

Big fan. This would be amazing. 300+ units here would be incredible.

Keep in mind that this is a massing exercise, but if you like what you see/can envision, be sure to voice that at the right time.

 

[Westendyeg]

Wow! Build this now!

So true. This is totally a suburban style development in an,area that should be anything but.

I'm surprised this is the first news on the lots of this 124th section, with the stop right there this will be prime real estate!
Hopefully developers are willing to get stuff built rather than sitting on the sites for years speculating.

 

[Tropical]

Well this makes me rather happy to see. Most of the buildings along this stretch would not be missed.

It's almost like the Valley Line is having its intended effect

You don't have to worry about losing these buildings, trust me. I live right by here and what's there now does not contribute much of anything to the street. The only functioning business is a daycare and people just drop off and pick up their kids through the back alley, never the front (the doors don't even open to the street). The old apartment building is condemned and is used by squatters. I'm not familiar with this developer, but judging by their website and seeming willingness to communicate with residents, I'm all for it. But of course it depends on how it ends up looking

 

[Airboy]

Hard to come to terms with how I feel. Tear down the current dilapidated buildings for a long term parking lot or leave them in place until someone actually builds.
