Permit includes demolishing the old school when done.

Looks like it'll be 2 schools (probably 1 building though?); a K-6 with 445 student capacity and a 7-12 with 335 student capacity.
Does anyone know if the current building for École Michaëlle-Jean (the 7-12) near 101 Ave and 83 St is also being demolished and replaced as part of this complex? On the Major Projects website they're listed together: https://majorprojects.alberta.ca/details/Solution-for-École-Michaelle-Jean-Gabrielle-Roy/10933

Kind of shame since Gabrielle-Roy has a nice building, but at least the architecture firm they've hired seems pretty good.

Yes. At least that was the original plan. Both schools will be housed in the new building.
 
A row of 8 houses (with one in the middle still standing) were just demolished, just south of Whyte at106st and 79 ave. Something upcoming called "Queenalex 79"?

The one in the middle looks like a hold out, so I assume there will be two buildings here, one on each side. The two rental houses on the end (now torn down) seemed to have a lot of problems with the type of tenants they had, so hopefully this will solve that and improve the area.

Although, I thought the older one on the end was nice, although small and quite old. I wished it could have been fixed up. There is a rapidly diminishing number of these older houses still around.
 
So the site on 109th has a Pagnotta sign on it and a drill rig on it as I drove by this morning. Looking forward seeing what's going in there.

Nice to see stuff happening on 109th close to Whyte.

When CN tower conversion starts running, that brings us to over 900 units underway in downtown.

I think it's safe to say we're finally getting good momentum on residential units, on top of the Student Accelerator and the future Attainable Housing Fund.
