And lastly, this is a conceptual design from a student. Pretty funky.

Wow they need to make this one happen. It has a touch of Barcelona style midrise quarters but with a mix of highrises added in. Only downer is thats its a greenfield development on the edge of town.

Even though it's only a concept, that cubed looking building in the centre pretty is sweet.

How does one get more information on this project? I couldn't find anything online. The project exists on many existing privately own properties, would their be a strategic plan out there?

Spear Street Capital out of SF is going to tweak up 3 buildings in the Beltline (I know one had IBM in it);
Design for new development in Beltline released by developer
Three office buildings in the Beltline will be turned into a multi-use hub and will offer office and retail spaces and entertainment experiences for people living and working in the area.

Great news! This block is basically a dead zone at the moment, but it is surrounded by amenities (Central Memorial Park, restaurants on 12 Ave and 1 ST). If they actually follow through on the plans to bring in retail and events, it could be a major game changer for this area of the beltline.

I sure hope it works as a destination. Sounds like the project is motivated by all of the new rental residential that is coming to the Beltline. However, there is still a lot of empty office & retail space ... more each year ... particularly along 10 & 11 Ave SW. This project will probably detract from those spaces.

What is that complex currently called? I always just thought it was the IBM Centre or something. Have all the tenants vacated or something?

IBI Group is moving into that space in the spring I think. Not sure how much of it is vacant.

Always interesting when a relatively new building undergoes an extensive makeover.

There is some more density planned around Heritage LRT Station. This DP at 8610 Horton Rd SW, for an assisted living facility:
Can't find anything online, but there is a rendering on the DP sign, pretty substantial tower:
