Flirty Bird closed in January. Tres Marias' last day in their current location is tomorrow, and per their Instagram, have almost finished moving in to their new location. It looks like they are keeping the seating that was left behind so the dine-in portion of their business might end up...

They closed in January, as did the Mash in Courtyard 33. Both were regulars of mine, but neither had many customers any time I went.

Tres Marias is moving a block away to Infinity, to the unit where Flirty Bird was. Fantastic news.

My entire opinion of this project is based solely on Tres Marias and to a lesser extent, Saffron Bistro, being able to relocate within the neighbourhood. They are an absolute staple in my household.

The liquor store just closed up shop and the apartment building had some boarding up on the basement windows when I walked by yesterday. Wonder if places are getting ready for the inevitable. I'll have to ask Tres Marias next time I'm in there....

Don't worry, there's a Local across the street and whatever is in the old Buffalo 1886 Cafe building now. Nothing like turning a (flawed for sure) destination into a parking lot.

I love the setback. Keep the part that interacts with the pedestrians more human scaled.

Doens't feel as imposing as I thought it would walking along the South side of 33rd. So that's good. I'm hoping a few of the businesses that will be displaced when Plaza 34 gets underway will find a new home in this building. I doubt it as I imagine rents will be significantly more expensive...

Now with half better sidewalks. The work is only half done currently and will be incomplete even when the Main Streets project is done. Even the "loop within the loop" is half amazing, half "why the fuck didn't they finish the job". It's not going to be complete because of the pending Plaza 34...

This very much does push the precedent of the area. People are going to complain regardless, but I think it will be better received if it pushes a bit less. My personal preference is to have European style density where buildings are 4-6 stories with small scale retail at street level over...

I moved to Marda Loop a decade ago because I wanted the mix of urban and suburban and have welcomed the additional development. Even if one of the developments down the street turned out to be an absolute disaster. I share the position the BIA makes in the video. I'd be happy to get the Co-op...

Do half of the job really nice and leave the other half unfinished?

I really like this building. There's density, but the portion of the building that interacts with the street level is more human scale.

Anything with a shred of history in this city gets demolished because we're too cheap to maintain that history. Then people complain there's no history in this city.

Can Leonard Development Group buy this? Please?

Interesting, as construction on these is well underway.

I propose we move Stephen Avenue brick by brick to 34th Ave in Marda Loop. People in this neighbourhood might actually appreciate it...

Checked out the new enclosed patio at the coffee shop in Elizabeth Square. Quite cozy with the heaters going. People love to throw around the words "game changer" around here. I think the work Leonard Development Group are doing in Marda Loop is an actual game changer and they are bringing real...

I like what the plan shows for 34 Ave and 20 St. 33 Ave could be okay but it depends on how the interaction with street level is, usually Co-op or Safeway are just big concrete walls. The Blush Lane kitty corner from this site is a good example of what I think works well as they have that garage...

Marda Loop Main Streets update. Telephone poles on 34th Ave are gone. 33rd and 34th are back to two way streets. Looks like the majority of the work on 33rd is done as well as the South portion of 34th.
