Eh, I think it's fine for a new building of this scale, especially if the units are more affordable.

There have been a few projects proposed for this site over the years. Here's hoping something sticks.

CMPC under construction

Pretty sure that was the former proposed site for the Canadian Statoilhydro HQ that failed to move forward from circa 2010.

 

[MacLac]

Really? Stat Oil from Norway?

 

[IanO]

Yup. A design was done, but everything kinda imploded after the oil drop and financial crisis; it was going to be a technological innovation centre with some corporate presence and a staging point for future engineering projects.

I was not directly involved, but recall the proposal and design.

 

[MacLac]

Ow that you mention it, they didn’t have a typical HO in YYC like every other O&G company. I believe they sold off their acreage around Conklin in 2015 to AOC who barely have enough money to keep the field flowing.

that was after Liesmer ?

 

[IanO]

At or just after, yes. Liesmer started the relationship if I recall.

That was such a nice job.

New to the forum so I'm not sure how to create a new post so I'll put this here.
There are "early plans" for a Richford Urban Village on Ellerslie and 111st.
They already bought the rugby club underneath it, apparently it was never profitable.
A rezoning application is currently pending and nearby projects suggest to me it'll go through. Here's the public consultation they did in January with concepts.


btw What are the qualifications to end up on the map? because there are more things southside I'd like to show up on it.

Here's their initial proposed siteplan. The red shade is commercial. PDF of Design Brief

Interesting. Almost TOD? 9min walk to new LRT and Transit Centre. Would love to see these directly on SPR though.
