    Wow, that's huge!

    I think I heard DeBeers was setting up near the airport. Maybe the City convinced them to locate downtown.

    Brookfield Place | 246.88m | 56s | AFK

    Those metal panel doors make me think it could be a multi-purpose building... since those look like they could be ctrain power control boxes (unsure of the proper name) but the rest of the building appears that it'll be more than that. Hoping it's a cafe.

    6th and Tenth | ?m | 31s | Lamb Dev Corp | Core Architects

    I was walking by this evening and saw a couple of lights from people who have moved in.

    I for one would be far less likely to even leave my building if there were no +15s in the winter time.

    Courtyard 33 | 21.64m | 6s | RNDSQR | 5468796 Architecture

    I didn't notice that in my initial quick look at the plans. Very good point. Hopefully they have fully thought it through and it really works... Or they change it to be at ground level.

    Reclads

    That unfortunately isn't a reclad I think. It just seems to be permanent scaffolding. I've been walking past it every day for months... and don't notice anything going on. I do agree that it really needs a reclad though!

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

    Nice find! These must be the cheaper improvements that the City was talking about a year or two ago.

    General Construction Updates

    My guess is that it's on hold until the market improves. Embassy Bosa (now Bosa Developments) has other projects that are further along, and in more established communities. I doubt there's enough market appetite to develop an entire new mid-high end high density community right now.

    And a few more minutes past that, there's 2 within Bow Valley Square!

    I'm a native Calgarian and have never been up it.

    4ourteen West | ?m | 3s | JR Mercantile Group

    I'm curious why they chose steel and concrete construction... For what appears to be a 3 story building, wood framing would be much cheaper.

    Verve | 82.60m | 25s | Fram | Giannone Petricone

    This block, and the three two other large ones that are remaining will be in this configuration according to the EV sales centre: Tall Short Short Tall

    Verve | 82.60m | 25s | Fram | Giannone Petricone

    That will be another condo called Vibe. I think they will start sales for it shortly.

    Occupancy is pretty high in Pacific Mall, even though there's only like 5 types of shops in it, each repeated nearly identically multiple times; bubble tea, food court, cell phone accessories, hair cutting places and random trinkets.

    This is how they're on schedule and on budget... cut as you go.

    The Odeon | ?m | 4s | Ronmor Developers | McKinley Burkart

    Is the gas line directly below where trees could go? There shouldn't be any issue as long as they aren't (and minimal even if they are).

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

    Unfortunately redesigns in this economy are usually driven by cost, not quality. I do agree with you that it's rather boring architecturally.

    The Hub | ?m | 28s | Campus Suites | ARK Inc.

    I recently finished university and never drove. I'd say half my friends drove, but they lived much further than a 15 minute walk to campus like the people renting here will. The people who lived in the Banff Trail area NEVER drove to school. Of course there will be traffic in the evenings for...
