    AHC 6th Ave | 25m | 6s | Attainable Homes Calgary | Hindle Architects

    Just noticing this now, but the North side wall is fully blank. Seems a bit strange not to include windows at all.

    Lincoln | 120m | 37s | Truman | NORR

    Full steam ahead. This area is a mess of dump trucks parked and stopped all over the place.

    It's on the North side of 16th, so the sound barrier and access won't change. Not the intended point but it will offer some sound buffer for the neighbourhood behind it which is a nice plus now that we are entering motorcycle racing season I'm reminded of how loud 16th can be.

    Looks pretty good, anything to move density to 16th and improve it from it's current car sewer state is a plus. Would be nice to have on street parking here with no stopping restrictions by time of day. I'd also like to see light timing improvements, the pedestrian wait is very long and you're...

    Lincoln | 120m | 37s | Truman | NORR

    I wonder how they are going to do the sidewalk closures? The other end is closed already and they can't not have access to the building in the middle. I feel bad for Papa Roti, they'll have no foot traffic.

    Piling is complete, excavation will likely start soon

    The affordable housing complex on 20th ave and 6th street NW appears to be under construction. There was a rendering floating around somewhere but I can't seem to find it now. https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2023-07946

    Brotherhood of Mankind statues moving there or is that just something that looks similar?

    I know there are a few members who are in the North Central area. Looks to be a significant upgrade to the Mount Pleasant community centre. Another Lola project https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2025-00006

    Meredith at Edmonton Trail | 14.63m | 4s | Gravity Architecture

    The building is up for sale. According to the video, there is a new restaurant going in one of the commercial spaces. https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/27722144/201203205-65-edmonton-trail-ne-calgary-bridgelandriverside

    New infill development in Mount Pleasant https://dmap.calgary.ca/?p=DP2024-07776 2 SFHs replaced with 6 units up and 6 basement units. I've already received a mailer from a concerned neighbour espousing the end of the neighbourhood. I don't think I've seen one of these mid block like this in...

    Gallery First & Tenth | 60m | 19s | Truman

    They saved a 3 foot long sandstone block with a sign above that talks about Penny Lane and some images. It's on the +15 level as you exit to the South. Completely forgettable.

    The Loft | 44m | 11s | Institutional Mortgage Capital

    Such an odd building to begin with. The office market must have been crazy at the time this was built, the floor plate is tiny. Clearly no one wanted the office space now. Residential conversion is a great use for an odd "office" building and the location is pretty good for access to Kensington...

    That's a good addition to 16th. That site must have some significant soil contamination from the old Rosedale cleaners which was on that site pre 16th ave refurb (judging by the pipe farm there now).

    Lincoln | 120m | 37s | Truman | NORR

    I walk by almost daily and there have been construction vehicles parked there most days since Imperia started up. My guess is they are just cleaning up the site to use this as a yard for Imperia. I wouldn't expect Truman to go full out with simultaneous construction of two high-rises, but I...

    General Construction Updates

    I have a feeling that the property owner is removing the building to save on insurance and security costs. A vacant building is an attractive spot for someone to break in and setup camp in. Same thing happened with that old gym around the corner on 12th Ave, and I expect Lacey court to be the...

    Calgary International Airport

    As an aside, every time I see those tables I cringe at the formula and formatting errors in the international table. That's sloppy work and I have no time for that.
