^Damn, they should have gone with that design.

What he said!

Not sure if we've seen this one before or not, I saw these posted on linked in as their updated Bridgeland renderings for a project by Camargue Investments Inc / Le Groupe Denux.

Looks decent. A bit busy, but decent.

 

[Surrealplaces]

Nice to see they've updated the renderings, maybe the project is gaining some traction.

I agree, it’s too busy for my personal taste, but this will be good for Bridgeland, and if I’m being honest, Calgary could use a ton of developments like this one.

Wow, that’s a lot of different materials! Love the massing though

 

[Alex_YYC]

I’m with the rest of you, I’m not a fan of the amount of different materials. I’m a big fan of the overall scale and general design, especially the fourth floor, terraces and rooftop deck.
These type of buildings provide good lifestyle, outdoor space options.

It fits perfectly with the extant scale of the street. Not a bad project. At least it’s only 3 colours and not 6


Edit: wooops scratch that. Didn’t notice the blue and yellow accents…

Anyone know what happened to this? Seems totally dead after demolition.

 

[Tarsus]

There’s construction on the street and sidewalks around the lot. Maybe they’re waiting for that to finish up.

Also it could be because they have a new architect and a new design. New architect ACE Architecture, and the building is now 5 floors, 16m, with 59 units. Personally, I like this design better. It's not near as busy, and the brick and larger windows are an upgrade.
The new design's permit is still under review DMAP

 

[Cowtown]

Much better.

I cant remember if I posted a proposal we did for that site. My apologies If I already did. We proposed 54 units. These were some massing studies we did close to the end of conceptual. View attachment 357470View attachment 357471View attachment 357472

I remember seeing this. I think they were targetting TD bank never transacted on the land and walked away. The design is over height and the community was really against going above 16m right after the main street design specified 16m. Contrary to the statement made no one contacted the current owner about this proposal.

 

[Robinrjk]

Much better.

We had to change the design. Unfortunately the initial design team had a very serious health issue with a lead team member that was unfortunate. When we went to the IFT stage there were tons of inconsistencies in the parkade with grades that really were fatal to the design. This one was inspired by initial comments about using more brick on the building. It actually is four stories instead of a rooftop deck the forth story units are stepped back and smaller however to be unique at the roof deck level they have loft mezzanines.
