Sales must have been good, they're already starting construction!

Lots of activity today; steel going up for the firehall portion of the building and concrete being poured.

In my mind, any future bike lanes should ultimately connect to the University, the two hospitals, and Brentwood station (Market Mall would be a bonus too). There's already a bike lane on 37 St, so hopefully they extend that on to Warren St, which could then connect to a lane leading to the...

I noticed a couple new tidbits about future projects in this article. One is 330 units planned for south of Aria (the building with the Save-On). Another is that two residential projects are expected to launch next year; one from Jayman (I'm assuming this one) and another from Crystal Creek...
