This looks like an infill project, but because it's over 25 units I've created a thread for it.

The timing for the thread is because it looks to be starting construction.

Looks nice. Build 100 of these

I think there are at least 10s of these going up.

This one is a bit unique as it has a retail component I think. The only other one I can think of like this is the RNDSQR one on 19th Street.

I though there was also one like this in Ramsay?

Development of Black and White store is similar to this.

Was confused by the geometry of this at first, since these long-edge rowhomes tend to only produce 4 units, while this one has 8.
Looks like the lot depth is ~30ft more than typical -- the setback and lack of garage squeeze in another couple units.
Bonkers.

Would love to see some bike lanes on 19 there, and then we could trial 19 x 24 as a serious protected bike intersection. That 24 Ave corridor doesn't get as much love as it deserves.

I don’t remember off this one (19th St., Northwest at 24th Ave) has a dedicated thread.

Moved it over to the thread for the project. Unless my eyes are deceiving me, it appears the design has changed and is now a smaller infill project, though the retail on the corner looks to still be a go.

 

[Calgcouver]

love this project. The retail is such a welcome addition to this built form

 

[CalgaryTiger]

It does look different, only slightly smaller though, so positive there and a huge positive to have the CRU.

It feels like this has gone up stoopidly fast. Not even a couple months ago I was biking through here every day next to a dirt patch.

Design has definitely changed. Not as shocking that this can fit across 2 lots. Pretty standard. Nice to get a couple extra units instead of a parking garage though, and the corner store!!

Here's hoping the derelict home to the north gets a similar treatment.
