Correct, no ice rink in the new development. I believe the City is still moving forward with shutting down Coronation Arena next door, though (not sure on timing, or if a replacement is planned).

Edit: Coronation Arena is no longer on the City of Edmonton's indoor arenas page, so it's quite possible it's already been closed.

I know that it won't happen, but I'd love to see Tipton replaced in situ.
Granted it's probably out of date and borderline irrelevant at this point, the last City of Edmonton arena development strategy (2009-2019) had Tipton & South Side to be closed, but replaced with a centrally located twin rink. Though no location was mentioned. Would make sense to me to try to couple this with the Rollie Mills Recereation Centre being built, but it doesn't appear to be in the current plans.
 
Indeed and I get the economies of scale and all, but it is sad that we are removing walkable, community located rinks.
