    West District | ?m | ?s | Truman

    A nice sunny afternoon for a construction photo update. Not construction related, but people have moved into Parkside, multiple patios had furniture out, even saw a few people sitting on them enjoying the sun: Not quite under construction yet, but a pile driver is on site for Adelaide, so...

    Quarry Rise South | 50m | 14s | Remington | Arcadis

    Similar to The Palisades of Quarry Park, Remington has another chunk of land in Quarry Park that is being switched from office campus to high density residential, projected to be over 1200 units.

    I am not sure. I don't know if there is a limit on secondary suites. R-CG only allows one "main building" that can then have suites, but would suites above a garage count? Perhaps someone who is more of an expert on the LUB can answer, this is starting to get outside of my wheelhouse.

    With the rules of R-CG, we are actually talking about adding 8 units, given that basement suites are allowed. Might not be a big deal, but it should be pointed out that it is possible that it will be 8 units on each of these lots.

    Infill Development Discussion

    I think the more interesting neighbourhood to watch will be Upper Mount Royal. There are some MASSIVE lots there, that with R-CG zoning, you could put in a LOT of units. Maybe enough to overcome the high cost of land? Not sure, but I wonder how long it will be before we see someone try it? I...

    1405 - 4th Street | 77m | 24s | GWL | IBI Group

    According to DMap, some amended plans were finally submitted. There is a set dated March 8th, 2024. Maybe there is life in this tower again. Renderings don't look much different from what we have seen earlier: https://developmentmap.calgary.ca/?find=DP2021-7019

    Crane Count

    Just looking at the list in the first post, I see that Icon Trinity Hills is on there twice. There is only 1 crane at that site, and it isn't a proper tower crane, but a larger mobile crane I think (tough to tell 100% when driving past it).

    Not the first time they have done this. There is no applications. This is just a rendering on a website, nothing more at this stage.

    General Construction Updates

    Are there other City capital projects experiencing this? Or, is it just this plaza that is stalled out? I have heard there isn't much progress on cleaning up / finishing the 17th Ave extension into Stampede, but haven't been by in a long time to see.

    Springbank Hill | ?m | ?s | Multiple Projects

    There won't be much of an interface with the future LRT corridor. It is not like a station is going there. It will be a fenced off rail line that people are not supposed to interact with. That alone will kill any potential for a "high street" on this portion of 17th Avenue, not to mention the...
