I read that the land use application was approved but it was noted that there is no LRT station planned for that area, which might make residential development less attractive. Apparently adding a station to an existing line costs $100 million.
 
I think you definitely need a concrete time frame on the LRT station to get more sales in the development (quick University access). On the plus side there should be practically no opposition to this regarding heights and density, it's surrounded by large roads and no residential near it at all.
 
Now the city can look at cost benefits of doing the station, who it serves, and lay out a price for what would be fair to charge the developer for it. $100 million seems rather high - though that might include extra LRVs, land acquisition, etc
 
Remington must have bought the project off of Birchwood Properties, as we have seen this before. It was called "the Dells":

That's right. Birchwood sold it off. Did not know until now that it was to Remington. 946 units would probably equate to their entire production in Quarry Park, or more.
