I would suggest that this development is probably a never-term. It would be easier to just use the base density in the DC, build 6-storey rental apartments now and be done with it. The sunk equity of funding an LRT system to then upgrade service connections and do public realm improvements to...

Love this building, excellent concept. Great job Dialog and Urban Capital!

Anyone know what that Black material likely could be?

Can do in June

At this point, spanderel away on tower exteriors above the two to three storey podium. But for the love of god push more permanent materials and good design on the podiums.

Ultimately the problem is mobility Eng at the city pushing excessive car orientation. I think the excessive surface parking could have been avoided though but a lot of developers still think it’s necessary

True, mostly just that the older demographic trends whiter than younger gens. Coming from Vancouver development/planning you’re not wrong at all

Sure, easy to say that it’s all genders. Less so for colour, opposition is pretty overwhelmingly white. But the common thread is the opposition is much older and largely boomers or older gen xers, and I’d be surprised if that’s a contentious point. Not exactly the folks we need to be focussing...

Will age poorly in restrospect as a TOD project if fully built out in this fashion. Deals with the current mobility conditions as it had to in the DP conditions, but is a good example of maximizing car orientation for something that is supposed to be TOD. Lots of parking to traverse as a pedestrian.

No, just means the project pencils out better due to cost/ease of construction, amount of units they think that can be absorbed in that basin, timelines for completion, ROE/IRR, etc.

M2SC is only flipping this site, no intention of building. How many LOCs have we seen now in Inglewood that get approved for land flippers? https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/26682049/1336-1340-9-avenue-se-calgary-inglewood

Give me a DP or it’s fiction. Just a land lift to forward sell the land. Rezone when you actually plan to build, chumps.

Because mobility engineers make collector/arterial streets into unwelcoming stroads everywhere in this city. You’re trying to to force density onto unhospitable urban arterials like Macleod trail, 16 Ave North or apparently Bow Bottom. I would suggest you push the City to make these even...

Province purchasing larger yards and protecting them from dreaded public access for there favourite campaign donors

Is there a DP yet for this? Curious what the plan is for the exterior

Which examples for DC or the Netherlands are you talking about?

I see, so would the shops/retail/active frontages orient towards Macleod Trail as the main street? What aspects of what Macleod Trail make building something like Brentwood or Metrotown unattractive to developers?

What kind of changes do you think could be made to Macleod trail to make redevelopment more attractive and what kind of developments would you like to see?

I’m not sure this amount of articulation and fenestration will pass muster under the new building code. Lots of thermal breaks. I could be wrong

Are you 67 or 18 years old? I’m confused about your perspective, honestly
