2. Think about the gem that we lost

1. Close enough to downtown
2. It is lost, so what is there to think about?

Looks like a lot of their framing is done and sitting in the laydown yard ready to be put up, so this one should piece together pretty quick once they’re at grade

An absolute gem... and bit suspect given what happened.

probably their lands at 116st and 103 ave. They have 3 buildings there that are in the process of being demoed...probably...don't want to ruin the surprise.

Does this 116st project have a forum? equipment is on site.

We need lots of these 6 stories all over downtown and in our future districts.

 

[IanO]

Except that Edmonton doesn't need 'fires' in an unusually high number of historic/character buildings to achieve that.

1 step forward, 1 or 2 back.

 

[David A]

I am unhappy about the loss of the historic building too, but a bit more positive about the outcome. The new building, besides just being nice and new will also have a lot more units, so that will add to the number of people in the area.

So, 1 step back, perhaps 1.5 or 2 steps forward.
