The DP for Minto's next Kensington project has been submitted:

Located on 9A street, north of the Safeway, the project is branded as Alto:

Not a lot of details yet, hopefully the DP drawings get posted shortly:

Nice find @MichaelS! I was passing by this lot the other day and was wondering about it. Looks like the perfect scale for the location.

It's an awkward site - one frontage is the Ctrain tracks and the other is an alley. I guess they are orienting it southeast so the facade looks towards the Ctrain station with downtown behind - the top two floors will have some nice views. The location in the "what's a 10 minute walk" away sense is extremely nice, but the actual location is meh.

I have to think the price point will be lower than Annex, hopefully they can make the numbers work. Concrete first floor with wood framing above, like Archer?
 
It’ll get built. Minto is crushing it here the last few years. Love this one.
 
This helps the sting of Royal Park. Gorgeous and unique.
