Yeah totally looks like they have changed it. Aside from that, this looks pretty much the same as it did 4 months ago...

Let's hear some more about it!Keep an eye out for a DP submission for another residential project in West Campus Lands, possibly about 350 units.
Can't say right now, but stay tunedLet's hear some more about it!
I don't think it was/is realistic to expect that to remain a farm forever. And based on the existing grades, it doesn't look like many of the condos to the north will have their views blocked, as they already sit substantially higher than the land in question, and it is just single family homes proposed along the north edge.Not sure if anyone's talked about this ... but Hopewell Residential is converting a 43 acre farm in Arbour Lake in the NW into houses and condos. Being someone who walks down the east side of this land regularly, I'll miss the horses and little patch of nature surrounded by city.
I'm not sure how residents in surrounding houses and condos will like it either, as they paid premiums to get a view and to be backed onto a farm. Now there's going to be new condos and houses, likely driving their house value down.
Environmentally as well, not sure if there's wetlands in that region but if there is, that could be an issue.
I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I just saw plans for a gorgeous building downtown. Sorry Skyscrapers, that's all you're gonna get.
I can't imagine it's an office building.
