The fire station? The city and RNDSQR couldn't make a deal and it fell through, so it's stalled out until the city figures out what they want to do.

Only 7 units, but it looks like a 20 unit project.

2 units on one floor, and the rest are single units. There is even a 4 bedroom unit in there. But, the layouts leave a lot to be desired...

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but there's a Land Use Redesignation just East of Chinook Centre for MU-1 on the Chinook Plaza strip mall.
It's directly West of the CF "slab towers" (61st Avenue Residential) proposal and calls for 8.0 FAR and a max height of 110m. Here's a bit of an overview of what we have so far for that area.
The 150m parcel is phase 2 of the CF 61st Avenue Residential proposal.

Huh. That's disappointing. Seems like a great project to have some legit family sized units

I think my post wasn't very clear. One one of their floors it is taken up by two units, but all the floors above are just one unit with multiple bedrooms. 3 bedroom and even a 4 bedroom unit.

What were these amendments and would they have actually helped spur more development? Happy to see the Communities First people get called out since they seem to be the most hypocritical people on council as their speaking points are all about cutting red tape and building homes and yet the always vote against stuff that would actually help do that.

In two letters sent to Calgary city council obtained by Global News, developers expressed frustration at the "introduction of politics to administrative housekeeping amendments."

Based on that article, it sounds like the Silly Six voted against based on all the recommendations being grouped together instead of individually. Normally it's not hard at all to vote on things individually...a councillor just has to ask for it (and then a quick vote on whether to do that or not)
I'm confused about this tie vote...it means two people were missing? It looks like the tie vote was earlier in the month, but then this week there was the reconsideration motion that need 2/3s and was defeated 9-5 (Chu voted for it...accidentally?)
Edit: Found it - May 6 Public Hearing Meeting of Council - Demong and Dhaliwal were absent (at least for that vote)

16th ave taking in a different feel with Harmony and Munro. It’s starting to feel like a urban boulevard
Between this and the CF land use, we could eventually see the high rise cluster at Chinook that many of us would like to see.

With the Jemm project starting and Sydney looking like it might start we’ll see a different look soon.
