As a resident of the area, I'd love it if they would shake things up a bit by not using the white stucco/grey hardyboard combo on every single freaking building.

I see the fact that Imperial found a buyer for its campus so quickly after bailing on Calgary (and fuck you, Imperial BTW) as a really positive sign for our economy. It's making me wonder if a company is looking for a huge amount of contiguous space in Calgary which is hard to find, even with...

1875 had a really busy Saturday!

Yup same design but 10-15 floors taller with a slimmer profile- that would be awesome.

Unfortunate but not surprising, considering how long it's been since we've heard any news. That in itself is usually a bad sign.

It's a little thick for a 30-ish storey building, but that's really my only gripe...overall I think it's going to be a good looking building.

That's actually some very impressive numbers. Unless Ottawa beats us, which I dont think they do, what is the next-smallest North American metro with more people living in its downtown? Probably Vancouver?

Interesting how the types of housing varies so broadly between the cities. It actually shows how the big eastern cities really don't have great housing variety and all with almost no suites (Toronto heavy on stacked towns, Ottawa with rowhouses and Montreal heavy on apartments and stacked...

Now that Munro is nearing completion, we should place bets on which finishes first - Harmony or the Event Centre...

Correct, no alley.

DP has been submitted. The design is pretty much as shown in the renders with some slight changes.

Sounds like they are already negotiating with potential tenants, which is a very good sign.

100%!

Don't forget Nest! Ever since 6 storey wood frame became a thing, my brain differentiates based on concrete vs wood frame rather than tower vs midrise.

A lot of conservative-leaning people seem to place a lot of importance on sports. I think the fieldhouse will see broad support across council.

The real test will be if any of these projects break ground!

Actually, good point about the patio area - as currently planned it'll be in shade almost all the time. I still think the overall project is a big win, and I am confident the planning department will work with them to improve the interface with the riverfront. And I absolutely love the...

To the point of rejected ballots - this might be a controversial opinion, but if someone who doesn't have a disability is incapable of figuring out how a ballot works, and doesn't mark it correctly, I'm fine with their vote not counting. But on the topic of the shift back to hand counting, I...

Happy Friday! DP for yet another hotel coming to Calgary, developer is...Truman! More badly needed development in East Village. I'm a fan.
