Looks like the Toole Peet Building on 17th is getting some sort of re-clad/renovation.

I don't recall seeing this anywhere previously, but just read that Anthem has started construction on The Arthur in Currie.

Thank you, I missed that with it just being the address in the title.

Not sure if this is the right thread, but is there a reason why we need to do design work for every school, and how long it takes? Especially elementary schools that don’t have as many specialized programs, could we not build them like we build transit stations where 75% of the design is the same and just adjusted to fit the site? And sad that the UCP doesn’t recognize there’s any constraint in the inner city schools.

Eleven new schools will be built in Calgary's outlying communities: Nicolaides
The 2026 provincial budget will fund 14 new school capital projects in Calgary including an addition at Joane Cardinal-Schubert High School.

Could the lack of inner city schools be due to the lack of sites available?
I think for inner city schools, it would be a case of doing additions or expansions. The original schools still exist to cover the area previous covered. Some inner city schools have run out of space and could use some expansion. It might be out of scope for this wave of funding. Not sure.

I can think of 2 major schools that were demolished recently. One in Kingsland and the other being Viscount Bennett in Glengarry. Both sold to developers.

VB was end of life and under utilized. So, there were those issues….
I assume this is your Kingsland school reference.
