One can assume that either Phase 2 of this same project OR the NY, NY one with the clock will be starting next.

Does phase 2 have the same design?

From what I’ve seen - somewhere….yeah

 

[EtoV]

Well it's certainly a building.

Bring on Phase 2

I'd love to be one of those folks in the other low-rise phases who paid upwards of $600/sqft and bought into the top tier/quality master planned CP plans.

Ouch

It makes the old pink ones look pleasant.

Disagree but they aren't anything to write home about either.

Overall a positive development, but breaking up the podium level and having the building address the street with townhouse style units would have done wonders for this building. Not sure why Edmonton developers have such an aversion to have street accessed units even on the ground floor (yes, I see those tiny staircases, but that hardly counts). Or even just some simple landscaping/slightly larger patios on the ground unit.

Eg. Even though there are cheap buildings, a little extra effort on the ground level can really improve the streetscape:

Abbey lane.

 

[EtoV]

Exactly. Much better ground level treatment, even if they didn't want to use the brick.

No Ian it could not have been otherwise it would have been built. It was just a fantasy.

Seems like this map pin is in the wrong spot, I believe it should be to the northeast of the development, not on the commercial hub.
