That is way more prominent than I expected!
I'm interested to see what type of tenants move in. Big business or local? I suspect the former due to location and the way the bays are built. Almost made for higher end retailers. Perhaps, that is only because there isn't anything else on Whyte that fronts like this will. Haha.

Calgary builder returns to roots at Edmonton’s Raymond Block
From his office in Calgary, Kendal Harazny can watch a live time-lapse web feed of construction on his firm’s six-floor signature development on Whyte Avenue in Edmonton.
The Raymond Block, named after a hotel that stood on the site years ago in the historic Strathcona neighbourhood, has a special place in the heart of the Wexford Developments co-founder.
A decade ago, Harazny lived two blocks from the vacant lot where the Raymond Block is rising. The University of Alberta business student wrote a paper on how to develop the site for his entrepreneurship class. So when the property came available in 2014, the same year Harazny and his partner Sam Gordon founded Wexford Developments, the opportunity was too great to resist.
“When this came up for sale, I spoke to my investors. I was pounding my fist on the table for this one. You just can’t replace this type of real estate. It’s a very special location on a street that’s going to be drastically improved in the next 10 years,” says Harazny.
The 132,000-square-foot, $50-million multi-use project features ground-floor retail, already 80 per cent pre-leased, a second floor of office space, about 50 per cent leased, and 94 apartments on the four top floors.
“We are currently in the process of purchasing a site in the arena district (of Edmonton) for a high-rise residential tower and we recently purchased a small retail building on Whyte Avenue.

Reaching out to Wexford to see if they'll let me join the topping-off party...
