    11th Street Underpass | ?m | ?s | City of Calgary

    How dare you try to keep this thread on topic! I live in Sunalta and only ever use the 11th crossing (by car) to get to Staples - but that's if I'm coming from Beltline, which is most easily accessed vis 12th - coming from the SW, you will always take 14th street and 9th Ave to get to...

    Wish the cladding had a more ambitious profile / finish. This may feel pretty 'agro-silo' at the end of it

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I thought this was in reference to the Cowboys tent and had me genuinely concerned. I can't comprehend how such an impactful change was made with 0 engagement or transparency. There's gotta be something more to the story. This is terrible for West Village. All the love goes to the east - the...

    The open market determines "quality" Reducing the height would negatively affect the economics / feasibility: it's just math

    What are we cooking in this kitchen though? Let me reheat this one pancake. Who picked these finishes? They are really holding the line on "Graywood Developments" No shade

    The project economics of one piece of dirt dont care about the shot comings of another piece of dirt

    4th Street Lofts | 115m | 29s | Western Securities | Gibbs Gage

    Someone on a City panel of some varying acronym felt the need to "add value" to the process.

    17th Ave Mixed Use | 23m | 6s | Porte | Gravity Architecture

    You can build this size/density by rights, but they are doing a DC - my guess is there are so many bylaw relaxations it was easier to wrap them all into a DC. Having suit access from both sides (17th and 18th) while still allowing for parkade ramp (at a mid block parcel) caused the building to...

    Gallery First & Tenth | 60m | 19s | Truman

    Once a project goes under construction, the likelihood of stalling out has almost nothing to do with immigration, CAD dollar or other macro factors. The risk of stalling is almost exclusively to do with management of the project. Delays, change orders, etc. I suppose the 1 variable would be...

    The Sentinel | 24m | 6s | Arlington Street | Jackson McCormick

    Mentioned in their investor update today - breaking ground Q1-2025, so the ski cellar is seasonal in nature as suspected
