This is really good for YYC.Im not really sure what happened with the relationship with SOM and developers here. Either way, I was hoping it was perhaps a Smith+Gill project perhaps, but then again Truman would not be able to afford them, that holds true.

Gawd! Would be hell of a sight on approach to YYC from the south. Any idea who designed this?

Agree with everything. In fact the first sentence in each of your points points out exactly the problem. Somebody earlier said we‘re a big city now, so we should wear big boy pants. I am not certain that the City knows what“ Big Boy „ pants are. My own view, I don‘t think this is going to go...

Conceptually, I think it is a pretty strong iteration. Pretty nice. Bill Johnson is an excellent designer and listener too btw. Wait till the back-lit facade "moves" with flames during game time. Jezuz! Great view from Scotsman hill!

show time...

Hi everyone, I have not posted anything in quite some time, so apologies. I had a question for anyone here who might know. The Stewart Livery project ,way out of the ground, has slowed to a complete crawl. I saw that the BP might be on hold? Anyone know? My fears grow as that what appears to be...

Well they do indicate on the webpage that these renderings were not developed by RioCan or any affiliates with RioCan, including the Consultants, if I read correctly. The traffic scenario is beautiful. Looks more like a collection of motorcades getting ready for a follow up on Borat Subsequent...

Once a long, long, long, long, long, very long time ago .... I dug this out of my Digi. collateral. This was the 2nd Ave front. XSENSOR used to be interested in the lot a L,L,L,L time ago.

Brief Update on the Stewart Livery Barn (White Barn) Project in Inglewood. They have temporarily moved the barn north on the site. The existing "slab" is exposed along the south edge of the property at the lane.

And they are preparing to move the Barn, to allow for structural /foundation upgrades I believe. I'll try to get some photos today.

From our Community newsletter: "We met with the developers and we appreciated the effort they took to explain the project in-person. They are looking at a six story building that retains the front of the Carson Block (home to The Dirty Duck) and would provide mostly one-bedroom apartments at a...

A bit of a photo update from the Monday. The power went out. I was working on a proposal deadline for Tuesday when the fire department knocked on our door to stay out of the backyard and lane. Anyway, word on the street was that "some form of equipment" took out one of the powerlines behind the...

Sorry SP, It is that site. It appears the design team has changed a bit since the developer brought the project forward. A little surprised that there was no heritage/conservation architect listed.

So it starts. It appears the shed roof portion attached to the gambrel roof structure of the is coming down. I'll try to track progress as best as I can, (just living down near the other end of the block.)

The River Run complex was supposed to be representative of the 90's attempt at the vibrant urban mixed use village....complete with a fence + gate to facilitate integration....
