Makes perfect sense - half of the floors are already Norquest classrooms.......

Oh man, that's another possible partial office to residential conversion in downtown.

I’d much rather see new buildings with this incentive. Whether intact is empty or not, it creates a street wall. Gravel parking lots do not.

DP for a bike park in Queen Elizabeth Park in progress:
To construct exterior alterations to a Park Use, limited to the development of a bike park with pump track, flow trails, skills park and jump park (Edmonton Bike Park) and to place on site a 6.1m x 2.4m seacan at Queen Elizabeth Park.

Now listed for $3.1 million. Approved for up to 34 units if it were to be a townhouse development. Some nice aerial shots:

I think this area in rosenthal/secord might be surpassing century park…
Ugly as though.

I like the Edison apartments but I find West 92 to be a disaster

Good thing the Valley Line is being extended to this high density node and neighbouring rec centre….. oh wait…

Faster than Blatchford as well.

That is one of the things about our city and its politicians/policies that absolutely baffles me right now. We have hundreds (275 according to a spring 2023 CoE report) of vacant lots downtown, near downtown, Strathcona, existing LRT stops, future LRT/tram stops, Blatchford etc,. that are BEGGING for this type of development and yet we build these things in places like this on the other side of the AHD and and in already thriving and beautiful neighborhoods nowhere near an LRT stop. And then they wonder why we can't fill any of those ugly gravel parking lots, and why Blatchford is developing so slowly and why it is taking so long to establish TODs at LRT stops, etc, etc. It is mind boggling, at least to me.

Unironically one of the biggest oversights from the Valley Line project as a whole. extending VLW to the rec centre would've been a slam dunk for ridership right off the bat and captured many last-mile trips on the LRT (since, yknow, "neighbourhood connector"). Now it's going to be an expensive future project 15+ years down the road

But you can’t expect the city to know the plans of all the groups developing the LRT and rec centre and library and zoning for commercial and high density.
Oh wait. They do all of that and still can’t get it right.
