New development permit for the former CapitalCare Greenfield site (behind the NoFrills on 40 Ave).

Here's some more from the document. Their plan is to develop the site over a period of eight years (I'm guessing that just refers to utilities, surface infrastructure, and landscaping), and it'll have a maximum of 4,200 units. I want to be hopeful, but they say multiple times throughout the document that Times Square was already built in 2015-18 (at the same time as The Louvre and Century Tower), and it just worries me a little that they're off by a whole building.

Ambitious but doable if the stars align.

Very reminiscent of the university district in Calgary, but every building is like twice the height

Shepherd's Care actually. The building that was demo'd was a nun's convent before becoming a supporting living facility. Very unique design and had an interior courtyard which worked well for residents living with dementia. A little bummed that it's gone but life goes on.

There is no way the City will allow angled parking next to an LRT hub!!!

Would I love to see something like this, definitely yes. Will something like this happen, maybe.
I just wish that a development like this, would build as close to the LRT station first. At least for me it makes more sense to build closer to the public transit rather than further away in order to attract more people quickly due to the proximity of residential to the trains.
Maybe someone can tell me the reasoning why Century Park has been built as far away from the LRT station as possible first.

Like Westbrook Village at UBC.

Holy crap, I didn't know that Eagle Builders purchased the entirety of the undeveloped area of Century Park. Makes sense why they've already been building on the east side - not sure if they've done towers before, but there's a first time for everything.

Doesn’t include the Times Square lot.

Long term Care similar to the one in the Southwest (Holesome Place in McTaggart) that was finished a couple of years back. Bird was on that one as well.

Looks like that Gooch special on 116th St. $165M for this?

Might look like Ed Gooch, but its by Start Architecture and they do a lot of institutional design. The guts of the building are definitely closer to what you would see in long term care facilities. There are actually four towers, similar to the ones you see in the picture you posted. Still, definitely odd exterior design. It should be a fairly big development, though.

Yikes! Mansard-over-the-top. Please insist on higher design standards dear Edmonton.
