The Cidex project next to Cantiro tower has been applied for, as hinted by @Albertasaurus in the Urban Development thread. The DP is now up on DMap:
- Thread starter MichaelS
- Start date
Checks the boxes, and looks better than the conversions.

Boy they did a great job with the strategic light reflection over the ungodly red panelling....it ain't bronze...it's red folks

Only issue with red is if it fades it typically goes pink. Not great. Otherwise this is fine but not exciting.

If the panels are a brand like Alucobond, the red should stay red. Fingers crossed!
As for the design. It’s nothing to write home about, but it’s not terrible. Overall, it’ll be a good addition to downtown.

The plans refer to the red panels as "prefinished metal panels". Hopefully they will be of a high enough quality manufacture so as not to turn pink.
Overall nothing to write home about but the massing and street level are fine, it'll bring a bunch more residents downtown and replace a parking lot which is a big win. Assuming both this and Cantiro go ahead that block will be in for a big positive transformation in the next few years.

It’s the north face. It will read burgundy.

No random rectangles? Is the city going to allow that?
