Another recent realtor listing. This one has plans for a 7-unit building, but it's not clear to me if there was planning approval or anything beyond blueprints.

Ah yes, now that I’m on a PC I can see the writing on the sign. That’s a relief.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is there a thread dedicated to office to residential conversions? Namely how many projects have been announced, which projects have been announced, the funding allocated to those projects, the size of the conversion, and the expected number of units to come from the conversion?
Any help is appreciated!

Office Space Conversion
Calgary has so much office space for a city this size that I can see someday there will be a large inventory of extra space. In my mind it's very possible to some of the older office buildings, converted to office space for maybe recreational or some other type of use .

Digital Stock ticker?

A zoning update was done on that building a little while ago, to allow a stock ticker style digital billboard put up on the outside.

Here is a post about it from last AugustA small but interesting land use change is going to CPC next week for downtown. The CalFrac building (SE Corner of 4th Street and 8th Ave SW) is asking for a land use amendment to allow them to put a scrolling digital stock market ticker on their building.
Report, Background, Applicant Submission,
Here is the building in question:

Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.www.google.com
Admin is recommending approval, and the Applicant Submission has their rationale as to why the alteration of the historic facade is okay (have only skimmed the documents, unsure what the official admin take on it is, but must be okay if they are recommending approval).

Haha I like reading the old news. Been working in the parkade at Westview and find the old headlines quite interesting!

Ottawa approved Roger's $26-billion takeover of Shaw. Part of the deal is creating Western headquarters in Calgary and 3000 news jobs. Does this mean a new office building? I assume they'll want to have high class and quality office space similar to Telus sky
