Is this an old video? They've owned the site for a while and already have a DP for a parkade.

They just posted it 30 minutes ago so I think it’s just more of an official public announcement.

But how tall is ultra tall though??
This forum isn't this forum unless we start speculating height and floor count!

Don't forget -- Westrich also owns the (larger) site north across 103rd Avenue (the former multi-storey storage building plus adjacent land). I would expect the formal announcement accompanied with renderings to also include this site and that's how the Pedway system gets engaged connecting to ICE district -- Pedway over 103 Avenue and then east to ICE district.

I feel like since they are making the “ultra tall” statement we could expect a tower taller than encore, right?

Without specificity I expect 50+ storeys.

As long as the exterior of the Affordable Storage building remains intact while serving as the podium of a new tower, make it so!

While exciting, it's kinda sad that the one corner on that intersection with a decent looking, functional building could be the first to be redeveloped.

Dude, this is Edmonton. Up until about a decade ago 100m was an "ultra tall". I doubt we'll see anything come close to taking the crown from Stantec anytime soon. Sure sure, some on here believe the white picket fence company will do it but back in reality we're likely going to see a lot of 30 story buildings fill downtown and that's totally OK.

Absolutely, but it's responding to the language from WP.
Encore is 138m and 43 storeys and so a 50 storey would be ~160m.
