I think it's community space, also used by the church. This is a fantastic reimagining of an underused space and a super creative way for a congregation with shrinking attendance to do something useful for their community while maintaining a space to worship and gather. There is an article about this project out there somewhere. I'll post it if I can find it. We need 100 more of these projects.

Oh that's awesome that it's still an operating community space! Churches and other places of worship have some of my favourite forms of architecture, almost hauntingly beautiful at times. If I were to design my own house I'd definitely wanna include a room with a high vaulted ceiling, dark wood, and stained glass haha. Hopefully we see more of these kinds of reuses!

Update on the Affordable Storage building; it's a little hard to spot in the dark, but they're putting glass in that gap that's bordered by the red.

This is east side of 116st and south of 104ave. Was there a project here? I faintly remember…

Or is this just a lay down for the Leston project or LRT?

It was rezoned last February. It's now RL h65.0, so expect a 9-20 storey tower here. I'm guessing Leston owns it. I'm hoping Regency does not.

On the agenda: LRT cell service, derelict properties, St. Anthony School

This week, council returns from the holiday break to discuss installing cell service in underground transit areas, taxing derelict properties at a higher rate, and the redevelopment of St. Anthony School.

  • Eins Development Consulting has applied to rezone a lot in Garneau at 10948 89 Avenue NW, which currently has one single-family house, to allow for a taller multi-unit building. The lot is zoned to allow for a three-storey building with at least 1.2 metres of space on each side. The proposed zone would allow for a building up to five storeys if there are three metres of space on each side. However, given the small size of the lot, it’s more likely the development would be four storeys with 1.5 metres of space on each side, administration said. The lot had previously been part of the city’s priority growth area rezoning project in which administration identified properties that are ideal for increased density, but the property was removed from the project following neighbourhood engagement. Now that it’s up for rezoning again, some neighbours oppose the application because it was removed from the city’s project. Council is scheduled to vote on the rezoning at a public hearing on Jan. 24.
  • The Arabian Muslim Association, which owns the Edmonton Islamic Academy, has applied to rezone an industrial lot in the city’s northwest to build a private school. Administration said it supports the application but noted the project would erode industrial land, which could undermine the recently adopted Industrial Investment Action Plan. The site is considered highly valuable because of its size, about 14 hectares, and contiguous nature; it is one of three remaining large parcels in the city, according to the rezoning report. It’s also located with ease of access to Anthony Henday Drive and 142 Street NW and far from commercial and residential zoning, limiting off-site impacts and nuisances. Council is scheduled to vote on the rezoning at a public hearing on Jan. 24.
