    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I answered my own question. It is not designated. https://www.calgary.ca/content/www/en/home/pda/pd/heritage-planning/discover-historic-calgary-resources.html.html?dhcResourceId=262

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I agree. My preference would be to demolish the Telus building and incorporate the old Scotia Bank building into the base of a low rise glass residential tower. Sad to see it not be considered. Wonder if it is on the list of historic designations?

    Article on Arlington Street Investments. New rendering for their site at the SE intersection of 17th Ave & 14th St which shows the historical Scotia Bank building demolished along with the ugly Telus building...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Is it a City of Calgary bylaw that we need to cut down any tree that actual reaches maturity ? This is in the Beltline next to the dog park. Hate to see this happen, considering Calgary' canopy is so young and small compared to older cities.

    Absolutely sick of the constant negative Alberta articles from the CBC to be honest. It seems to be an agenda from their editors for clicks by the rest of Canada. It's borderline snobbery and contempt to be honest.

    I was thinking the same. It looks ridiculously sloped and it doesn't appear to be the photo lol.

    My mistake. I assumed it was residential after seeing it proposed as 'industrial condos'; I was not aware that the word condos can relate to other forms of building uses. Would be cool if they were residential condos though. With the Green Line going through industrial areas in the SE, the...

    I drove by this project the the other day on way the home from Ikea. It's a project called HF11 located at 5035 11 Street SE in the Burns Industrial Park. They are currently retrofitting a newish industrial warehouse into 'Industrial Condos'. Looks interesting as its not too far away from the...

    Response from the City manager in charge of the development permit. Looks like a plaque will be put in place and the bricks will be re-purposed in the development. I don't understand why the City doesn't agree to some sort of cost share with the developer to re-locate these buildings and houses...

    Underwood Tower | 99.06m | 31s | Western Securities

    I am all for seeing this building fly up. However, I live across the street and it would be really great if ITC respected the 7am noise bylaw. Waking up at 6am on a Saturday morning to shouting, power tools and banging is infuriating...

    The Hat | 88.08m | 28s | Cidex Group | NORR

    I agree, I was in Dublin in April. They have a lot of mid rise apartment buildings under construction in an area called "The Docklands", which would be similar to East Village. I was blown away by the quality of the materials used including granite panels and nice brick etc. Not a single use of...

    Looks like the sides of the yellow balconies have been covered with black cladding, which appears to be in accordance with the renderings. Not sure if I like it, looks to be a different type of cladding than the others. Shiny or something? the rest.

    General Construction Updates

    Looks like the Mikey's Juke Joint site in Sunalta is up for sale. http://www.collierscanada.com/24449#.WwxL3e4vyUk It's a great location and I would love to see 10th Ave through Sunalta become redeveloped. However, sad to see Mikey's go as its a great spot which the city is losing a lot of...

    I was under the impression that the yellow breaks would just be painted yellow however I realized today that their appears to be a cladding going on. See second photo which looks to be the framing for the panels. In my opinion, a cladding is far better than the cheaper looking yellow paint.

    Awful cheap looking proposal for one of the cities primary retail and dining streets. Hopefully this design gets torn apart when it goes before council. It is interesting to look at Indevelopments so called past projects. All industrial warehouses and First Nations developments. This appears to...

    Underwood Tower | 99.06m | 31s | Western Securities

    The existing heritage building remains and will be redeveloped into a bar/restaurant. A friend who was linked to the construction project said the drawings showed that the basement will be converted into a wine bat type space. There is a space between the heritage building and new high-rise that...
