I don't think this one has been mentioned yet, it is pretty small, not sure if it warrants a thread, but a new commercial/retail building has been proposed on 10th Street at 5th Ave in the Downtown West End: https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2025-03131

Plus the city charges for it (hoarding permits). Seems like an expensive and inefficient way to run a project just to be a jerk.

It might be a bit of an exaggeration, but not much, when you look at our current growth rates. Our current Premiere says she expects Alberta to be 10 million people by 2050, if that is the case, Calgary will be taking the lions share of that growth. I'd rather have a mayor that anticipates...

I believe he is more nuanced than that. Repeale & REPLACE, the fulll policy can be viewed with this link. Essentially, not a one size fits all approach, taking into account things like infrastructure (not all areas of the city are equal)...

He has very detailed policies on his website: https://www.jeromy.ca/

That is quite the wrap job on that Cybertruck in the 2nd picture.

Remember Truman wasn't the original developer of this one, they purchased it after the DP was approved I think.

This part of the city still hates seeing townhomes..... https://calgaryherald.com/news/springbank-hill-residents-call-on-city-to-postpone-housing-project

Crombie REIT is the owner of that site, and they list it as "future development", but no real plans by the sounds of it: https://www.crombie.ca/development/410-10-street-nw/

I suppose our rec centres all typically have 1-2 water slides in them, but I am surprised Calgary doesn't have a large indoor, year-round water park similar to the scale of the one in West Edmonton Mall. I feel that would be quite popular here, given how young our demographics are.

I hope the barbershop on the ground floor makes it through construction, those guys are great, were my go-to when I lived downtown.

Isn't the bolded part essentially what a "discretionairy" use in our land use bylaw allows for? So many relaxations granted. I suppose you could always appeal that if you are a neighbour, but it is still "at the discretion" of the planner.

The City does have parking policies that support significant parking reductions, specifically if you look at Section 4.2 of the policy document, you will see these policies: The challenge is, what happens if 1b. is true at the time of DP, but over time, redevelopment occurs, and no longer...
