Guisti Walltech, must be the main supplier in the city, they are doing all of the woodframe projects.

5th street would be good, but given the design of the arena, with the main façade looking onto Olympic Way, it'll become the main avenue into the Stampede, as it has been for the past years. Olympic Way also run adjacent to the new BMO centre, and it curls around heading to 17th ave entrance.

Just as @Silence&Motion mentioned, Ontario cities do a lot of high rise apartment buildings, and the numbers seem par for the course. When it comes to anything between Toronto and Vancouver, Calgary is kicking butt. Mostly it's catching up, but still good to see.

The design is banal, but nice that more development is happening in that area.

If it were up to me, I'd have cities filled with buildings on the scale of ranging from Brio Bridgeland to The Theodore, with some high rises thrown in near busy transit nodes.

Nice! So it would be replacing these houses along 37th ave?

A lot of that style in Vancouver and Montreal as well, but you certainly see it a lot in the Ontario cities, and outside of some American cities, the rest of the planet for that matter. It's funny how people here squirm at the idea of high rise apartment buildings in places outside of the core.

Marketing magic lol, either way I'll be happy so long as it gets built.

That's what my niece was saying too. All things equal she'd rather live around the downtown area, but it was hard to turn down an SFH that was cheaper in price.

Wow, some minor tweaks, but looks so much better. count me in as on-board now.

You might be right about the availability of SFH's. My niece moved out of on her own last year, she and her friend looked for apartments down around the core, but eventually settled on a SFH in Tuxedo (a couple of blocks east of 4th street NW) It was actually cheaper than many of the apartments...

I like how the tower sits in the background and the left Red's in place, and went with a two story frontage on 4th right beside Red's. Makes for a nice streetscape.

Centre right? Centre maybe, but I'd say more left of centre. I've read through her campaign literature and there isn't much that gives me a centre right feeling. Just curious why you'd think she is centre right?

Bullet dodged.

Great to see this one going ahead!

I was hoping the park would be built for this summer, but I guess not.

The NW portion of Calgary is becoming randomly dotted with highrises, with more to come after this and The Dells.

Some shadowing of Coco, but very little really.

It'll be a popular spot, especially with Cafe Beano kitty corner to the park.

I like it when somebody writes a rebuttal in response to one of Richard White's articles. Almost always it's somebody coming at it with more knowledge.
