Anyone have any bit of news on this? I seen the whole area is fenced off. Maybe this might be back on the table in the not too distant future again?

Turning it into a parking lot apparently because the city is run by idiots

Bumping this thread. This is the site that is currently being turned into a parking lot. Previously, I had thought it was Minto who purchased it and was going to be developing a high rise on it (as hinted by Bertie Wooster), because of this broker's website in Ontario:
myinvestmentbrokers.com
However, the parking lot DP was submitted by Royop, and when I look on Royop's website, I see this project listed:
royop.com
The good news is Royop's website says it is a future 26 storey mixed-use development. Perhaps it is a partnership between Minto and Royop? Not sure. Either way, it is positive, as it doesn't sound like the parkign lot is the long term plan. I am not sure if the original Genco tower has a lapsed permit now, but it was 26 stories as well. Maybe they will need a new DP though, just due to a significant change in market.

Could be that it's the exact same plan as was planned all along, but now managed by Royop.

I wonder what the lease is on the lot currently being used as a laydown yard for Park Central II

I think we are a couple of years away at least before we see any development action on this site. By that time Park Central 2 will be complete.
The name of the thread should be changed as it is no longer Genco.

I would be pretty upset if all we got after all this time was the same shitty single-storey podium with the most forgettable 9-year-old point tower design there is.

Says they're aiming for 2026 occupancy.
26 or 27 storey? Pick one.

Well, this condo brokerage website has proven to be pretty accurate in the past. I have it on good authority that Minto is out of this one, but it looks like Truman has stepped in to take their place:
www.condosdeal.com
Project is being called Hyperion.
The project still appears on Royop's website as well, so not sure if it is a joint venture or not:

Imperia Condos is a development by Truman located at 1110 4 Street Southwest in Calgary. Floor Plans & Price List Click Here

Wow ... you need a program to follow this one. First Genco, then Minto, then Royop and now Truman?

Well if Truman are buying, it will probably get built! Not sure how those guys can have so many projects on the go at once...

Cool design, this looks very Toronto. Looks like a mini-version of the supertall proposals on Yonge Street. Some elements of this (without being as high-end obviously):
