A BREW PUB!!! A restaurant in the main building that uses that huge pavement space as a patio, and the back building with the brewery tanks! Maybe a cute boutique tech office on the 2nd floor.

They're bullish on the market. I'm kind of surprised given all the negative side on the economy. I really like the project, hopefully it gets built.RNDSQR have yet another project out for tender.

People still progress through life, and some people want new things. The urban professionals and perhaps downsizers in the high end market are ones that still have some money and they are less likely to be buying down in Walden as an alternative. I'd call the market surprisingly resilient as long as you get your price point right. And yeah, they are probably taking a lower margin on projects, but it is better than no margin.They're bullish on the market. I'm kind of surprised given all the negative side on the economy.

I seem to recall that when the news broke that the greenhouse was sold and closing, that the former owners had put a caveat in the sales contract that the new owners create a residential neighbourhood. Well it’s not as residential neighborhood-y as I would have expected, but at least it’s better than what’s there currently. And hopefully the development will “clean up” and reinvigorate the sad little street between Rona and the Superstore building. Hopefully the residential portion also gets built soon and with some style!I noticed in the video they mention 400 residential units being next to the retail area, and the video sort of shows a glimpse of it.

Speaking of 24th ave, here is a rendering one of the proposals, located here.. I think this may have been posted already, but in case it hasn't, here it is. 6 storeys, 39 units.
Agreed, until the density in Banff trail increases SIGNIFICANTLY I doubt 24th ave could support a full retail streetscape. There's already 2 fantastic cafes within banff trail/capitol hill and I can't imagine too many other businesses being able to successfully set up shop. That being said I'm exited for the handful of new retailers that will hopefully set up shop in the next few years. Banff Trail has a lot of potential as an urban community which I'm exitesd to see realized.How much at grade retail could 24th handle? From Crowchild to 19th Street, it is a little over 800m. In Kensington, along 10th Street, from 5th Ave to Memorial, it is about 570m. I would say if we get good, street oriented units on some of the 24th Ave proposals, it will be just as good for the high street feel as retail, especially since it is unlikely that this street will develop more than what 10th Street has in Kensington.
