This project runs on Dub time. It'll probably be done by the time I retire... in 30-40 years

Drove by here recently. Looks like some work has been done (new windows), but nothing being done now. So essentially this project is going at Dub speed, as expected.

there is very slow work ongoing for a parkade on the north side. I think there may be only 2 guys working on site.

Last time I saw a lot of people on a Dub project was City Hall.

I just don't get it, it be the most inefficient way to get a project done. And it's definitely not cheaper, considering mobilization, equipment rentals, interest on the project, coordinating labour. I just don't get how his projects can make any money.
They make the equipment too though. They also self project manage and coordinate labour since they are the labour. Savings all around. The two guys only do actual construction work 25% of the time.

And the crane was a pet bird of one of the guys who always brought him along to work (a companion crane)...
I don't have any details yet but it looks like this one is going back for more DC2 changes.
Looks like it's mainly a redistribution of heights and units:
www.edmonton.ca
- Area A: Proposed maximum height is 39.0m (current maximum height is 15.0 m); and a proposed Density of 224 Dwellings/Hectare (Currently 104 Dwellings/Hectare)
- Area B: No proposed changes
- Area C: Proposed maximum height is 18.0m - 19.0m (current maximum height ranges between 15.0m - 34.0m); and a proposed Density of 116 Dwellings/Hectare (currently 156 Dwellings/Hectare)
- Area D: No proposed changes
- Area E: Provision changes to allow for zero lot line housing

Disappointed there isn't a little more mixed use.

I remember first reading about this project when I was in high school. I'm in my 30's now...

This kind of shuffling of minor details seems to occur often on various projects in Edmonton... I wonder if it is done to keep permits active?
