Subject to change. This is conceptual design only.

It will be fabulous if constructed as is. What are the odds?

Only thing I don't like is that big triangle on the corner of 102 and 108. Not sure what the point of it is but it only seems to make that corner feel shadowy and uninviting when that's really where the building should be the most inviting

I think this could engender a bit of a competition between NorQuest and MacU -- all to the benefit of Downtown Edmonton -- much, much more to come.

Another big bad parking lot bites the dust!

The map above also shows MacEwan's school of business which is under construction.

And Parks 2 which is not.

I wish we had a rendering of that park between the Skills Centre and 109 St.

The triangular concrete slab may be meant to be a shelter. It looks fine to my eye as an architectural feature from a distance as it grounds the building but chances are it would collect garbage, get tagged by vandals, and end up being more work maintaining than it's worth. Not bad as a preliminary but agree that the concrete slab could be improved on.

I wish they'd expand that park to include the parking lot on the left; there's already so much parking in the area compared to green space.

Those will have buildings butting up to them and that what we really, desperate need... buildings, people, density, activity.

In time there will be a new structure there that will house the Indigenous Centre, fronting the park that you see in the rendering which is an indigenous ceremonial space as well as serving as a campus quad. Presently it is owned by others (although NorQuest occupies the building as a tenant.

PCL got the GC gig already?
