Battistella's West Beltline tower is called Nude .... lol. Do we know where this is?

Does it come with a water slide? lol.

It might have a private beach.

I can't wait to see the marketing campaign.

 

[UrbanWarrior]

Not sure what the name of this one is:

That is ML33.

I can't wait to see the marketing campaign.

Remember the campaign The Core did years ago? The nude models holding signs in front of them? They should go that route, @battistellachris you're welcome

Or there is this option:

I'm anxious to see what it'll look like. No renders yet I guess?

On a side note, I saw INK in person yesterday, and I came away really liking it, the colors are more striking when seen in person. The only thing I would change is the painting of the underpart of the balconies, but the rest of the tower is great.

Thanks, Cowtown. No renders yet.

Thanks for the positivity on INK. The balconies are left raw concrete as they match the interior ceilings. The whole building has an industrial vibe with exposed ducts and electrical. Very unique for Calgary.

Exposed electrical? do you just leave conduit open to the finished space?

 

[maestro]

When are purchasers going to realized they are being shammed with raw concrete ceilings and walls and now, conduits with standard 9 foot high ceilings. Probably still better to have exposed ducts and conduit than in drywall boxes crisscrossing the concrete ceiling.

Who says they're getting shammed? If the units are less expensive because the of exposed concrete ceilings and conduit etc, then all's good in my opinion. I wouldn't mind seeing a condo development that's bare bones style with the opportunity to do some creative stuff.

So maybe Nude is even a step further where the units are pretty much bare base building?

Having a new building be built loft style with an empty space would be an interesting concept, has anyone done it here in Calgary?

Because they aren't less expensive for customers. It's sold as a higher end product because a concrete finish can be expensive. What the condo developers deliver isn't. Same applies to the loft style apartments with standard 9 foot ceilings in a standard concrete residential structure.

Was at the Inglewood night market yesterday, looks like Moda has started construction on another site about a block south of the main strip close to The Nash. That area’s starting to come together, excited to see South Bank and Avli rise nearby too.

Also, drilling started on the midrise/co-op on MacLeod trail just south of Erlton. Not sure what project’s called.
