It seems odd to me that they think there's so much demand. I assume most of it isn't from the neighbourhood directly, but Crowchild and 14th traffic? But there's closer stores at both those locations.

Agreed and may be harder for the smaller stores to compete with a big one like Metro in a prominent building.
 
As part of the project, they’ve widened both the E and W sidewalks on 18th street on the North side. This is great as that’s a popular route to the school nearby and had a number of collisions in the past. And I think this is the first permanent infrastructure for the Kensington lane reduction, which is still in “pilot” with the temporary blocks.

I think Bridgeland is close to critical mass for a grocery store. Aside from some of the bigger projects, there have been a lot of smaller multifamily infills. I would love to see an urban grocer on the north side of 1st ave with 5 storeys of residential on top.
