I wonder if there are City requirements that must be filled that constrain the site? I am sure people here would know. For example, does this site have any mandated low income housing? Given its size, it would be disappointing if there was no low income housing on it. Similar to what you said...

Would that be an indicator of a weakening condo market if a developer chose to not do density in a approved higher density parcel?

It feels like CMLC told designers - hey- remember the public libary? It was cool. It got featured in different articles worldwide! It had wood slats. Wood slates are the way of the future. Use wood!

Anyone know why this one was held up? Lots of money already spent.

How long is that long? 10 years, 50?

Are steel stairs not typically done in wood framing?

That glass front on the ground level floor is too pretty for that spot. Happy its being built!

What is the City doing with this parcel? When I click 'details' nothing loads. https://developmentmap.calgary.ca/?find=LOC2023-0166 LOC2023-0166 Also, I heard a rumor that the 34 ave right of way on the west side of Macleod is for a City far off plan to build a ramp over to Manchester. Any...
