There was Badass Jacks which at one time was expanding quite quickly. I think it's down to one location now, and they don't seem to have a website.

Sorry to see it go, I liked the store. Its just that it got into much higher end products. Loved when it was Campers village.

It seems to be the fate of so many long established retailers, somehow they get sucked into selling to much high end high margin products, but realize too late that most of their customers don't want or can't afford that.

Another one I liked. I think the only location is just of 170st.

14 new schools to be announced for the Edmonton area. Planning not building. But if they go out all together there will be a lot of small players in this. so some that shouldn't be going after them will.

^north of 118ave 97 st is a 7 lane behemoth of a stroad. who would opt to live right beside it? I think between 118 and the yellow head should be retail and services with people living a block away from all the traffic. of course it isn't up to me.

I thought it was 9 lanes before the bridge under CN rail.

There's a service road that separates 97 st from the buildings on that side of the road, so its not as close as it seems. There also appears to be 2 CRUs on the main floor in that rendering.

I don't disagree that we need more retail on 97 street, but more higher density residential along that stretch is necessary too. At least that development addresses both of those needs

10818 98 Street, across from Xing Wang Bakery on the north side of 108 Avenue. Their building permit is nearly done so I'd expect construction to start this Spring or Summer:
