Genuinely curious to read the 2050 case studies of our units/ha and very urban forms in the middle of nowhere, with poor transit, questionable 'walkability' and full-size (2x+)vehicles.

At least this is on a more surplus like site with LRT nearby, but it reminds me of so many planning decisions we have collectively made in the far flung areas.

Thanks for sharing this! The fact that 9 of the top 10 cities per capita are Canadian is really interesting and concerning at the same time imo.

Not sure if there is a thread for this one?
Or what its name is?

Right by the Strathearn LRT station.

Canadian cities have been building more high rise apartments than American cities relative to size for decades. IMO it's one of the biggest differences between Canadian and American cities.

Ville Giroux I believe will be 16 and 20 stories off of Ray Gibbon. Last time I checked this was fenced off with equipment on site.

This development? Forgot Cidex was in this one. Nothing on their website to indicate it was.

Council clears way for Ville Giroux highrise development

Not sure where else to post this - Mandolin Books in the Highlands neighborhood is closing permanently at the end of September. New owners are kicking them out.

Was a quick pic while passing by but just wanted to capture a refresh for the Bristol Tower on Jasper and 121 street (Leston property). Looks fine in person. Similar colour scheme to Jasper Properties across the street.

Leston is really going to town. A lot of purchases and 2 new buildings under construction.

I prefer the old look - the warmth and natural colours of the brick.

Yeah, I've seen this "refresh" in person and I really don't care for it.
