Site activity for sure, hope this one is starting up.
Yep Rosedale Cleaners/Cintas use to be at this locationWasn’t there an old dry cleaners at that location? I wonder if it’s related to chemical rehabilitation? Dry cleaners use a lot of perchloroethylene. It’s toxic, but not as toxic a creosote, but enough that maybe the land required some rehab?
That's good news. Nice to see another development going ahead along 16th ave.There is also another development on 11th avenue that is moving along. I don’t know the cross street, but it’s not the one where the Transalta building was. I’ve heard they’re looking to start in the spring but always projects to get delayed and might be a bit longer. Whatever the timeline maybe be, they are planning to go ahead with it.
No it’s not that one, but I’ve also heard that it’s active as well. The one I was referring to is a taller tower. I meant to say it isn’t the one at the Transalta building, but it’s nearby.For the one on 11th ave, could it be this one? (Copenhagen)
Probably this one then? (1150 Centre St SE)No it’s not that one, but I’ve also heard that it’s active as well. The one I was referring to is a taller tower. I meant to say it isn’t the one at the Transalta building, but it’s nearby.
Perfect for dedicated bus lanesIt's too bad they expanded 16th a few years back. One lane of street parking and a driving lane per direction and 16th would be looking pretty promising right now. Still some hope though, it could end up being something like a junior version of Kingsway.
There's been a proposal sign up on that one for a couple months? It's just a sandwich board, so can't blame you for missing it. Looks like another 6 storey mixed use situation, might be the best looking of the low/midrise bunch on 16 so far, but that's just my humble opinion.I drive by this twice daily so I'm able to provide updates. I probably won't... but I'm able!
I'm glad that Turn it Up records found a new home close by (you can see it in the above photo) and won't just disappear. I wonder if that means if the development of the block where it was housed is imminent too.
