RA9 Rezoning in the works:
No other details available, and probably won't be until it goes to EDC.

Used to work in the building across 124st. This lot was always one I felt held strong opportunity for the missing middle.

I used to work kitty-corner to this lot years ago. Nice to see all the new activity. Definitely great "missing middle" opportunity, townhouse\retail at street.

124th street and environs (especially Stony Plain road intersect) is ripe for all manner of development.
At RA9 this will probably be larger than missing middle

I figured with the RA9 it will be taller however the lot isn't that big. Honestly thought an 8 storey would have been great on that location. mix of engaged TH's on the street and maybe a coffee shop on the corner with some decent condos on top.

I walked through many units last year and they were fun but really I struggled with the functionality. and they always seem so flashy in areas where flashy-ness is restricted in most developments. It'll be interesting to see what they propose but consider me a skeptic. Would have loved to see anyone else pick up this lot
@westcoastjos Aside from maybe that first one and the colours of the third, none of those look that bad to me. In any case, I imagine they would want an outside architect that has more high-rise experience to design whatever ends up here.
Confirmed that the developer has purchased the properties to the south and is looking to rezone the whole package to RA9.
