Totally agree, but I think the building is gone now.

I haven't been to that area in a while- so I wouldn't really know to be honest. Last I did was going to Twisted Element w/ friends a couple years back.
I was just going over screenshots and Street View- which was dated to June 2024

I've worked in the SE industrial parks for 15 years and don't recall seeing a structure of this magnitude (it goes the entire block length along 52nd) built with this size of prefab concrete. Usually you see all the steel go up first. Even the Amazon warehouses north of here were all steel framed. That's why I posted this. It's so big I can't even capture all of it.

It has just happened. They're currently grading the land to make it a parking lot for the meantime.

Is that an old substation or something?

It would probably go faster (and the results would be better) if we would hurry up and to a total rebuild of the entire road from Anderson to downtown. The alternative is to let all this development happen and then like 15 years later realize "wow why are so many pedestrians dying on Macleod all of a sudden and no one wants to go outside?"

Completely rebuilding the bridge structure. We're pretty good at bridge infrastructure renewal. 4th Ave Flyover has been tough on commuters but my brother has been on that project and they've been working hard.
This is great for this section of downtown. So many conversions in the area, happy more people will be able to take advantage of this.Slated for completion early 2027.

Are there plans for another renovation of the Centre St bridge? It's looking rough on the north side these days.

The last River Run condo building burned down last night. What is it with abandoned buildings that are about to be demoed burning down lately?

It was being actively demolished yesterday afternoon, I highly doubt anyone was squatting in it. Something probably sparked up from the demo work.
