I'd like to see this angle with Hat Elbow River put in, as well as that 4-tower one that has been floating around on Instagram. Also, Remington might one day build some big height on Railtown.

Chabot is running again, as part of the communities first YYC slate: https://communitiesfirstyyc.com/#candidates Demong is not running again, leaving Ward 14 wide open.

This land use application is going to CPC this week with a refusal recommentation. I haven't read the material in detail to know all of the reasons, but this paragraph seems to sum it up: The proposed development, specifically the height and floor plate size, would cast prolongedshadows onto...

The land use for this one goes to CPC this week: Report, Background, Applicant Submission, Outreach Summary, CA Letter

Yep, came to post that: Report, Background, Applicant Submission, DP Drawings, UDRP Comments A few more detail renderings on page 17 of the DP drawings for those who are interested.

I don't know if we need a thread for this specific project just yet, I say wait until we see a development permit. These zoning exercises happen often, with little to show for it years later. It will be interesting to see if we get something here, let alone a 24 storey high rise.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/city-says-redevelopment-of-former-midfield-mobile-home-park-site-progressing-steadily-1.7589436 Sounds like we are still a couple of years away from any sort of building happening.

Was this ever clear? I don't recall ever seeing a firm assessment showing this, and what a cost estimate to repair it was. Hard to believe that the Saddledome, which is younger than most of the buildings in Calgary, was somehow on the brink of collapse.

Looks to be a Western Securities project: https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/FileStream.ashx?DocumentId=331813

It was 11-3, with Sharp, Dhaliwal and Wyness opposed I think.

A few other images from that presentation, with construction update arial photos from June 2025: Overall site: (I can see my house in this one.....) The Oak & Olive towers are a few floors higher than this image already:

The zoning is being discussed at Council as I type this (so no vote as of yet), but there was a great presentation by the applicant that included some new renderings: https://pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/FileStream.ashx?DocumentId=331662 A rendeirng of the proposed rec centre. No DP yet...

While not as entuitive / easy to use as DMap, the My Property map will show you when there is a building permit on a parcel, if you click on that parcel / enter the address: https://mapgallery.calgary.ca/apps/d9fcb476b89f41b397f03cd63bb710c4/explore

I think those neighborhoods will be fine, potentially quite desirable. You will see the houses get renovated and made new. Larger lots, relatively inner city (compared to far/new suburbs) and vegetation/trees that will be quite large and mature by Calgary standards. That is very appealing to a...

Yep. George has a pretty impressive one

Fascinating. Is there a particular reason why it is so successful?

It isn't that remote if you are willing to use a transfer. The 98 will pick you up from 69th street station and take you right here. Or, you could catch the 111 from Westbrook. If you time the transfer right, both are very quick and direct.
