    Crane installation?

    Arris - 5th and Third | 142.03m | 42s | Embassy Bosa | Amanat Architect

    On my way to airport this morning noticed a mobile crane on site, looked to be installing the crane. The waterfront area in EV is looking good!

    Louis on 9th | ?m | 12s | Landstar

    Having this one and the RNDSQR site developed would be amazing. I also think Avli/South Bank will be great additions to the neighborhood. Seems to me that Inglewood may take on a Gastown feel once there's more vibrancy and quality development completed!

    Steps Bridgeland | 18m | 6s | Giustini Development | Sturgess

    Nice - I like how the midrise districts are gaining momentum in Calgary. The rise of our mini-hubs (Kensington, Inglewood, Bridgeland, Marda Loop, Mission, EV, 17th Ave) outside of the core is making Calgary starting to feel like a big city. During summer weekends there's already many events...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I was shocked to see development notice signage for a modern multi-res midrise development at this site along Macleod. Can't find a link to the development anywhere online. Has to be the ugliest strip in the inner-city, but it's good to see new development in pretty much every inner-city...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    I agree - was hoping for at least a midrise area within the mix. Hope we don`t end up with sterile towers, but the public realm discussion throughout the master plan shows promise. https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/filestream.ashx?DocumentId=77003

    25th Ave SE LRT Grade Separation

    This link may get started soonish. Looks like Crosstown by Anthem may be a go according to the Conference Board of Canada Cgy Metropolitan Autumn 2018 report.

    PLATFORM | 21m | 6s | CMLC | Kasian

    Spotted a drill in the distance here on the way to work this morning. Not wasting any time!

    The Barron | 43m | 11s | Strategic Group | Gibbs Gage

    I love the potential of this conversion. The financials won't make sense to convert the large floor plate Class AA/A office buildings, but there's still a decent amount of class B/C that will likely be converted over time. Especially if they run the risk of very limited occupancy over large...

    Looks like RNDSQR acquired this vacant site in Inglewood...

    Drill on site today! Kensington's sure looking good!

    Dominion | 53m | 15s | Bucci Developments | Urban Agency

    Looks like this one's close to starting. The drive in from the airport via memorial continues to dramatically change (Inglewood, Bridgeland, Vic Park, East Village). The next third-phase development is also expected to be Bucci’s — its fourth in the Bridges after Radius and first-phase Bella...

    BMO Centre Expansion | 25m | 5s | CMLC

    Looks a bit busy, but can turn out to be very interesting. I like the rocky mountain edginess. These edgy/curvy designs with lots of glass/wood should be our architectural theme to target. Goes very well with our geography (mountains, hills, chinook winds). Stampitecture should be banned...

    Urban Development and Proposals Discussion

    Part of it is the huge rental to condo conversion in Calgary during the 90's and 2000's plus higher ownership numbers here. During the boom years I remember reading through Altus reports which had Calgary about 3 to 4 times the amount of new inner-city condo sales than Edm. Other inner-city...

    Francesco's | 48m | 16s | Arlington Street | DAAS

    Looks great, love the set back design to act as a bit of a noise buffer given this fronts along 17th ave. Frank (Arlington) looks to be single handedly revitalizing this area of 17th between this, The Fifth and National Block. We could use a lot more. Still a lot of underutilized sites primed...

    The Hat Elbow River | 177.99m | 56s | Cidex Group | NORR

    The more I reflect on it, the more I'd rather they built a few 15-25 story highrises that stagger down towards the river and with much better plaza space. These towers may stick out like a sore thumb being on the southern edge of downtown and the renders show terrible street level presence...

    Eau Claire Market Redevelopment | 135.02m | 35s | Harvard Developments

    Awesome - I figure Harvard must have been looking for a development partner for a long time. Part of me cringed knowing one of the last prime sites in downtown was being held by a developer from Saskatchewan with little to no mixed-use/TOD experience. Shape isn't huge, but at least brings...
