Are there any renderings with a view from the east side? I’d like to see if the laneway through University City carries through into this development.

Traffic is more what I meant. If they only build 1200 stalls, then there are only 1200 cars to create extra traffic. I agree with the original poster who said 2500 residential units would create a lot of traffic for a neighbourhood that doesn’t have very good egress/ingress. If the developer...

They can build 2,500 units with 1,250 parking stalls. Problem solved.

That’s 100% what it is. It’s nice to list East Village as an advantage, but from an investors point of view, the DIC kills it as a potential development site. Strictly from an investors point of view, you’d have to be brain dead to invest in something in that location.

Love it.

Wunderbar!

The CPP will be fine when we hit those retirement ages ( I have about 20 years to go) but I agree 100% about having other investments as well. One shouldn’t rely on one single source like the government for retirement. It’s always wise to have a mix.

I thinking the same thing. About 85% of Vancouver’s buildings over 20 stories look almost the same. Gray, white or seafoam coloured window wall, and the same slenderness. I don’t recall seeing a building like this anywhere in Vancouver.

6 months ago I would have guessed the second Sunalta tower, but I don’t think so. They could’ve started the second tower by now while waiting for the materials to arrive for the first tower.

Parked cars are an issue but the protected lane between the sidewalk and cars works well as long as there is a 15-20 foot space with no parked cars at intersections. Given how long the blocks are at University District it shouldn’t be a problem like it is on 2nd Street.

Truman is reliable, and I have no doubt they’ll build this but don’t forget they sat in West 17 and Archer after demo for a while before going ahead. Also the sand with West 33 which has been idle for a year since demo happened. We also have the 3 sites on 24th Ave that were bulldozed and have...

It took me 10 minutes to get to this thread so I could say the site is having issues 😕

Thanks for the update! I’m quite happy to wait for this one to be built and have the mainstreets work as a priority 👍

Bingo. Edmonton has just as much in common with Houston as Calgary does and Calgary has just as much in common with Austin as Edmonton does. And it’s not a lot. Edmonton and Calgary are much more alike to each other than to those cities. If one compares Canadian cities to American cities, there...

I have a question for the airport, passenger stat experts, here. If a passenger comes in from Saskatoon, and transfers, over to one of the flights to Europe, does that passenger get counted twice in the statistics or just once?

I’m planning to go to Rome in the spring coming back to Calgary from Paris. I probably would’ve done this trip eventually if we didn’t have the direct flights, but the direct flights madd me want to do it sooner than later. I don’t how many numbers to back this up but I believe the direct...

Not a bad name it’s basic and simple.

Attendance was 152K yesterday. They need roughly the same today to break the record.

IMO Calgary hasn’t fully moved on from it yet, but it is definitely moving on and I don’t think it’s totally accurate to call it an oil and gas town anymore, even though it’s still the primary industry. 20 or 30 years ago I think it would’ve been fair to call us oil and gas city.

The sign at the site shows Remington development.
