Spruce Meadows had actually partnered with Red Arrow to run those shuttles. Red Arrow was sold to a company in the US and Spruce Meadows refused to step in and pay for the shuttles which were free to them prior. The Foot Soldiers are trying to put pressure on the club but I don't think anything...

Now that the construction fencing is down and you can walk in front of the building it's a perfect fit for the area. I prefer these kinds of developments to the larger scale 6 story ones, they often interact with the street level so much better. Infinity is a good example of how a 4-6 story...

I hope they put in street lights at the intersections of both 34th and 20th and 34th and 22nd. It's a complete shit show to drive or walk at those intersections. Makes for good entertainment from the OJ's patio though.

Tarps off. I like it.

Noticed that there are new renders for this project, looks to be a completely different building proposed. Much better fit IMO, a lot less like a car dealership and similar in nature to the rest of 33rd along that stretch.

The portion of the building interacting with Stephen Avenue and 2nd street seems like a big improvement. In the end the retail tenant is what will make or break. Social Beer Haus seems like a good fit as well, I've been meaning to check it out. Inside, however, the building completely lifeless...

Here is the aforementioned Henry Block Which is a redevelopment of this existing structure.

There are some really nice smaller developments happening a block East of this building. Leonard Development Group have converted a few old houses into some boutique retail. They are also converting a 2 story building directly West of these into retail units and building townhomes on top...

This is an absolutely terrible idea. I'm one of the few people who've spent many nights along that section of Stephen Ave. It would completely destroy that street. I don't know why this city with its limited history is so intent on tearing it down. The 7th avenue side, sure, I can see the...

Pros - This development is the right size and scale for that intersection. Cons - Forced two more small businesses out of the neighbourhood.

Wandered into the courtyard when I walked by this morning. The metal siding works better in the courtyard as there are murals and planters to break up the sheer volume of it. Plus you are not looking at 5 stories of the stuff at once. With the retail they have in those spaces (eco spa, personal...

I really hope this is more General Block than Courtyard 33.

Despite my frustrations with how this building has turned out, I will damn sure be hitting up the Mash. My wife and I talk about going to the one in Kensington every time we are in the neighbourhood.

There is only about maybe 8 feet from the beams columns to the road. Once the trees are added in, the pedestrian area is not much more than a standard residential sidewalk. Walking alongside the building, it felt like a similar street front treatment to 5th ave downtown. The entrance to the...

Now that the scaffolding is down I think the exterior is better than the "giant trash can" I have seen the last few months every time I walk by the building. However the giant beams columns along the sidewalk really take away from the pedestrian experience. As with the exterior, I won't judge...

I will wait to see the finished product, but right now it looks like this building is going to be a huge eyesore in the community; a lightning rod that will be used against the project down the street to try and kill it. Which is a shame, because I typically really like RNDSQR's stuff...

Just logging in to post my support of this project. I want more of these projects along 33rd and 34th, not less. I do share the concerns about bland chain stores popping up in the neighbourhood, but the chains that went into Infinity (Code Ninjas, Wow Bakery, Chatime) also brought something new...

To counter someone who is vehemently against Courtyard 33, I have signed up to show my complete support for the project. As someone who moved to Altadore a few years ago to find a balance between an urban and suburban neighbourhood, Courtyard 33 is exactly the type of development I want to see...
