And alpha house across the street. With all the investment in the area, new bike lanes, station upgrades, hotel, BMO expansion, and potential mixed use on the empty lot between 14th and 15th facing McLeod - not to mention hundreds of new daycare spaces between the old hostel and Sasso, as well...

I believe ridership post recovery is more spread throughout the day. I know peaks still exist, and 4 car trains are necessary to handle those loads. But, I do notice busy trains throughout the day. My worry is that the visual appearance of two-car trains will send the wrong message to users both...

I know construction is occurring at the same rate that other projects are, but this one feels fast to me. Love it!

It’s part of the 17th Avenue Plan. No building on the south side of the street can shadow the sidewalk on the north side. I’m not opposed to this - parks and patios would otherwise suffer. Also, Tompkins park is directly across the street and needs sun between the equinoxes. It’s sunlight worth...

I really hope they repave the whole length once this widening project(s) is done.

This is happening quite fast now!

There’s an additional 4 panels left to speak, and I think this item is deferred until tomorrow now as they are starting a Bowness item after the dinner break. This likely won’t be decided on until late morning, early afternoon tomorrow now.

This. Very this.

I hate the introduction of gray into everything. I would have loved to see them re-use or match the red stone. I'm sad that it's being washed away.

Amenity spaces are a requirement for multi-residential development (anything over 3 units in a building). Whether they are common or private is up to the development authority to determine for townhomes and rowhouses, and if there is more than two semi’s on a parcel.. and if the use is...

This should just be an apartment building. There would be a better site outcome and it would allow for more space to be saved for trees, outdoor common spaces, and reconfigured parking orientation.

This is severely under-built for the location. I would like to see more units, and at least twice the number of proposed floors. This will take away a prime downtown block an lock in a low number of units forever.

They want shovels in the ground 2026 and first units online 2028.

Quote of what I wrote about this site in proposals.

Yesterday, O2 had public engagement boards for https://www.liveabove17.com/ set up at Central Memorial Park's night market. Not sure if anyone else was able to make it but they are the planners working with VESTA properties on the site. Hopefully they release public renderings soon - because...

Giving me Chumir turned residential vibes.

It is likely the city will require a funds be set aside from the developer as part of conditions set in the development agreement before the DP is released.

I wonder if we will get to a point where new office towers will be needed because of the success of conversions like this. I know we have a long way yet to go, but hoping that we incrementally approach a balanced market. Selfishly I just want Calgary to get a supertall.
