How common is terracotta cladding used in Edmonton? Seems like an interesting but perhaps unconventional material for cladding (in my uneducated opinion)

Pretty freakin' rare in my estimation. I've seen a few houses and whatnot that have made use of it, but the only two buildings of any notoriety or scale that come to my mind are the McLeod Building, and the long demolished Williamson Block which stood at 9815 Jasper Ave.

Does anyone have an update on this one? At one point I had heard it was ready to roll... but nothing is certain these days it seems.

Last I heard they were stalling. I know they went back to re-tender it back in the late spring. Not sure what came out of that. My guess is that we'll see it fire back up in 2021.

I wonder if they want to sell Edmonton House before they start investing in construction for their Garneau project?

Love it, but last I heard it was 'on hold'?

^which is too bad, I think this would be great for the area.

I think you'll see this fire up this spring.

Here's hoping for it is such an important lot to make that area a little more complete.

Great project. This area can take on a lot more density! Awesome to see.

Let's hope it gets built.

As someone who used to constantly walk by this exact same spot for five years, it's going to be quite nice to see something else besides an empty lot and a parking lot in this area!

Agreed. I did the same thing and I swear everytime I walked past I'd say " When are they going to build something here."

Parking operations are shutting down in the next few days... a positive sign towards site prep.
