@CalgaryTiger Well, I don't know how productive that attack is but I can respond with my perspective. Services often need to be upgraded as pipes are undersized to deal with additional capacity. So a 350 mm might need to be larger at some point on some street where there is a constraint. It...

Well, I can offer you my experience in development over the last 15 years. I'm not sure there is a great deal of difference in the target demographic for a high rise renter / owner vs. 6 storey building within the same neighbourhood. Absent induced demand (where amenities or some attraction give...

I don't think many Marda Loop residents understand 34th has been upzoned to 16 storeys. Due to transition areas, 33rd will now be 12 and adjacent streets 8, then 6,... It also means Co-Op is an easy approval. There is not a lot of support in the community for density like this and the use of...

Meeting was on May 6th and vote on May 7th: https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=49bb2ac8-1608-40fb-bb9a-39225a4e4c57&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English&Item=34&Tab=attachments Surprisingly, it passed... doesn't look like it was even picked up in the news but is as big a change as...

See below... city snuck through a sneaky one upzoning all of 34th from this site to Co-Op. Unfortunately, this probably means that Co-Op is a slam dunk now. All they need to demonstrate is that as a major corner, a slight adjustment to the modified building height area makes sense. This is a...

Open house today. 34th ave was upzoned last week by the city to 16 metres. This is a land flipper pursuing a DC to take advance of the LAP changes. O2 (planner) wouldn't identify the developer but confirmed Certus is not involved. O2 thought the lid was off density in Marda Loop now. Truman /...

Hi Everyone, thank you for your comments. I'm the lead for the developer, ICM Property Developments, (Matt Crowley). We increased our setback and stepback for the SE connection against the duplex...I agree that is the most sensitive transition. The good news for that unit is they will have...

Love everything about the design, totally classic. I wish they would have gone higher.... Looks like the next couple properties is in the process of rezoning.

Is this going to be a rental? Seems expensive to build and and not in a great location. I didn't see anything listed on Realtor.ca

Does anyone know what happens at the time of lease renewal if the lease is renewed? Is this a bullet payment for the new owner or an ongoing lease payment? I didn't see a good answer from the University District.

Nah.. its sharp. Multi-material buildings look so 2000-10s dated.

It's a great site but contaminated and frozen. Love to see that piece filled in.

@Surrealplaces agreed. I think the new arena deal changes the calculus too, for what its worth.

Any activity on this site? Has the DP lapsed? There do not seem to be any open applications on the site per pdmap. Thanks
