Just noticing this now, but the North side wall is fully blank. Seems a bit strange not to include windows at all.

Full steam ahead. This area is a mess of dump trucks parked and stopped all over the place.

It's on the North side of 16th, so the sound barrier and access won't change. Not the intended point but it will offer some sound buffer for the neighbourhood behind it which is a nice plus now that we are entering motorcycle racing season I'm reminded of how loud 16th can be.

Looks pretty good, anything to move density to 16th and improve it from it's current car sewer state is a plus. Would be nice to have on street parking here with no stopping restrictions by time of day. I'd also like to see light timing improvements, the pedestrian wait is very long and you're...

I wonder how they are going to do the sidewalk closures? The other end is closed already and they can't not have access to the building in the middle. I feel bad for Papa Roti, they'll have no foot traffic.

Piling is complete, excavation will likely start soon

The affordable housing complex on 20th ave and 6th street NW appears to be under construction. There was a rendering floating around somewhere but I can't seem to find it now. https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2023-07946

RIP Lacey Court

Brotherhood of Mankind statues moving there or is that just something that looks similar?

I know there are a few members who are in the North Central area. Looks to be a significant upgrade to the Mount Pleasant community centre. Another Lola project https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2025-00006

The building is up for sale. According to the video, there is a new restaurant going in one of the commercial spaces. https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/27722144/201203205-65-edmonton-trail-ne-calgary-bridgelandriverside

New infill development in Mount Pleasant https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2024-07776 2 SFHs replaced with 6 units up and 6 basement units. I've already received a mailer from a concerned neighbour espousing the end of the neighbourhood. I don't think I've seen one of these mid block like this in...

They saved a 3 foot long sandstone block with a sign above that talks about Penny Lane and some images. It's on the +15 level as you exit to the South. Completely forgettable.

Such an odd building to begin with. The office market must have been crazy at the time this was built, the floor plate is tiny. Clearly no one wanted the office space now. Residential conversion is a great use for an odd "office" building and the location is pretty good for access to Kensington...

Work has resumed!
