Saw some equipment on site here yesterday

There's a pile driver on site now for the little project (don't remember the name) on the northwest corner of 19th street and 1st avenue NW

Didn't manage to get any pictures, but framing is up for the second floor on this one

Anyone remember the details of how the underground parking is supposed to interact with the lot directly to the east? It's meant to be shared between M2 and a future development if I remember correctly, but it looks like the ramp was built right along the lot line parallel to the Riverwalk...

One of the units will be a take-away pizza place, and I believe the corner unit is being turned into a spa. Not sure what's going in between yet.

This afternoon by me

Very cool! Any idea what the alignment will look like? I can't seem to find anything on the city's site...

Just saw a piler (big drill? Whatever it's called) on site this morning, so looks like this one's close to starting :)

Agreed 100%. There's enough vacant lots there that even a 4-10 storey limit would add enough new residents to the area to make it vibrant. Let the remaining parking lots in the core fill with highrise residential, and focus on more human-scaled development elsewhere

January 3, by me

Looks like the University District will be getting a Cineplex VIP https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/university-district-adults-only-vip-cinema-calgary-1.4935040

There's some more detailed plans that I didn't get any pictures of, but it looks like the old plan would've serviced the inner city neighbourhoods a bit better. On the flip side, the highway network that was planned at the same time would've ended up cutting through the beltline and along the...

I found this map showing what the original plans were for rapid transit in Calgary from the 1960s. The new central library has a ton of old transit and highway plans, it's pretty interesting to see what could've been!

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4882905 Looks like a pilot bikeshare project by Lime Bike is starting up sometime this week, with another company starting up in the spring

The transit forecasts at the bottom of the page here show some of the potential BRT connections that might exist in the long-term, including a few in the north http://www.calgary.ca/Transportation/TP/Pages/Planning/Forecasting/Forecasting-Toolbox.aspx#7

Not sure if this was posted already, but it looks like there's a site up now for some multi-family in the Greenwich development across from COP http://www.apollocondos.ca/

Saw some excavators and a pile driver on the site today, so it looks like this one must be getting started!

Awesome, thanks! Looks a bit better than the other CO-OP sites proposed imo (apart from the gas station, although I guess that could be redeveloped in the future if need be)

Are there any renderings floating around for the Mission project? (Macleod Trail and Mission Road right?) I haven't been able to find any online so far

Long time lurker, thought I'd finally make a profile! Snapped this picture on my way through the East Village, a lot of new cladding up on the east side of the library. Also, while I originally thought that the grey panels were completely opaque, it appears that they are actually frosted glass...
